NARRATOR: Diana's
loathing for Raine
would boil over as
the Spencer family
gathered at Althorp in
1989 for her younger
brother, Charles's wedding.
Diana's mother,
Frances Shand Kydd
had joined them from Scotland.
Raine and Johnny
were playing hosts.
 They'd had afternoon
tea with Mrs. Shand Kydd.
NARRATOR: Suddenly,
Diana flew into a rage,
convinced that
Raine wasn't paying
her mother enough attention.
 And it happened on the
top of the saloon stairs.
 She had a furious
row with Raine,
because Diana was so upset
that her own mother had been
ignored in the ancestral home.
And she pushed her, and
Raine fell down the stairs.
 She was badly bruised
and was dreadfully upset.
It was not justified at all.
It was a cruel,
heartless thing to do.
And I think it was Diana's
perception of how Raine
was treating Mrs. Shand Kydd.
I think Diana was very stressed.
This sounds really wrong,
but she wasn't center
of attention on this occasion.
