Shortly before her death in 1997, Princess Diana and Dodi Al-Fayed spent time together on the Al-Fayed family yacht. The photos went around the world. Now the luxury ship is for sale.
The last days of Princess Diana, † 36, have been reconstructed several times in the past 25 years since her death. The ex-wife of Prince Charles, 73, has never been seen so liberated and happy – the mother of two was torn from life at this time of her life.
Above all, photos that showed Diana alongside her then partner Dodi Al-Fayed, † 42, made headlines at the time. Footage showing Lady Di on the Al-Fayeds’ family yacht went around the world. Now the ship that will forever be associated with Diana is for sale.

The 64-meter-long luxury yacht originally belonged to Dodi’s father Mohamed Al-Fayed, a former owner of Harrods department store. The 93-year-old sold the impressive boat in 2014.

Even today, 25 years later, the yacht is not lacking in luxury and is said to have been renovated and modernized several times. The ship has a whirlpool, a dining room, a bar and several private rooms. The biggest highlight remains the legendary bathing platform where Princess Diana sunbathed.
