“I Was in Shock When I Saw Her Face,” — The Surgeon Who Tried to Save Princess Diana Tearfully Recalls the Final Moment He Looked at Her: “Diana Was Not Harmed by That Car…”
In an emotional and eye-opening interview, the surgeon who desperately tried to save Princess Diana’s life on the night of the tragic car crash has tearfully recounted the final moments he spent with her. His powerful recollection sheds new light on the events that unfolded that fateful night, offering a glimpse into the heartbreaking reality of her injuries.
The surgeon, who was one of the first to treat Diana after she was rushed to the hospital following the crash in Paris, explained how he was initially in shock when he first saw her face. “I was in shock when I saw her face,” he said, reflecting on the moment he entered the emergency room. “She was so composed, so calm — it didn’t seem real.”
Despite the severity of the crash, the surgeon shockingly revealed that Diana’s external injuries were not as severe as initially believed. “Diana was not harmed by that car,” he recalled. “When we examined her, we saw no visible trauma to her face or body that suggested the car had caused the injuries. It was something far more hidden and deeper.”
As he spoke, the surgeon broke down in tears, recalling how he, along with the medical team, worked tirelessly to stabilize her and try to save her life. The princess had suffered a severe chest wound, which ultimately led to her death, but the surgeon’s words suggest that the immediate injuries from the car crash weren’t as catastrophic as the final outcome would imply. Instead, he pointed to internal damage that wasn’t immediately apparent but proved fatal in the end.
The surgeon also described how, despite the severity of the situation, Diana remained conscious and coherent for a short period, even expressing concern for her sons. “She was asking about her children, saying how much she loved them,” he said, his voice choking with emotion. “She knew the severity of the situation, but she was still worried about them.”
This new perspective on Princess Diana’s final moments offers a more nuanced and emotional understanding of the tragedy. The revelation that her injuries were not as immediately apparent as previously thought adds a layer of complexity to the story of that night. Diana’s calm demeanor and focus on her children in her final moments further solidify her legacy as the “People’s Princess,” deeply loved and mourned by millions around the world.
As the surgeon continues to reflect on that fateful night, his tears serve as a reminder of the personal toll that the loss of such a beloved figure took on those who were closest to her, and how her death continues to resonate nearly three decades later.
