  During the last five years of her life, the People's Princess had one friend and confidante who was special to her. She was not part of Diana's social circle; she was not a family friend. That woman was Simone Simmons, a healer, who devoted herself to the troubled Princess. Over countless phone conversations and cups of tea at Kensington Palace, Simone gave her candid opinions about Diana's heart, soul, and suffering. No subject was taboo, and the women shared laughter and tears as they discussed Diana's personal life, including: who among the Royals was good to Diana and who was hateful her only fling--with John F. Kennedy, Jr. why she inflicted self-harm how Mother Teresa hurt her why she never would have married Dodi her enduring love for Prince Charles ..and more. In these pages, Simone captures the essence of one of the great icons of the twentieth century. This book, which reads like a personal memoir, truly is Diana's last word.
