A British inquest blamed paparazzi photographers, who tailed the car in a high speed chase, and driver Henri Paul, who was speeding and over the drink-driving limit, for the crash.
Since her tragic death there has been many conspiracy theories, including Mr Fayed’s claims Diana and his son were murdered by MI6 on orders from Prince Philip to stop them marrying.
But the inquest ruled the deaths were a result of unlawful killing due to the gross negligence of Mr Paul and the paparazzi chasing the car.
