Poignant images showing Princess Diana relaxed and smiling in the last hours of her life were screened for the jury hearing the inquest into her death today. The previously unreleased footage was captured by security cameras in the Ritz-Carlton Hotel in Paris on Aug. 30, 1997 - just hours before Diana and Dodi Fayed set out on their final journey. Fayed's father, billionaire mogul Mohamed Al Fayed, contends his son and the princess were murdered by British intelligence services at the behest of Prince Philip, Diana's ex-father-in-law.
Al Fayed believes the royal family wanted to eliminate Diana because she was pregnant and planning to marry Dodi - thus giving Princes William and Harry a Muslim half-sibling and stepfather.In one of the video sequences, Diana and Fayed are shown entering the hotel at 4:35 p.m., walking through a lobby and then entering a mirrored elevator. The 36-year-old princess, wearing a casual light gray pants suit with her sunglasses pushed on top of her head, seems comfortable and happy. At one point, she looks up at the security camera and flashes the smile that captured the hearts of millions around the world. The video, compiled from 43 hotel cameras, also shows paparazzi gathering outside the Ritz-Carlton. A pack of photographers was chasing the couple when their car slammed into a tunnel wall, killing Diana, Fayed and driver Henri Paul. Earlier in the inquest, the coroner told the 11-member jury they would hear "intimate" details of the princess's life as part of an exhaustive look at the last hours of her life. Lord Justice Scott Baker opened Day 2 of the inquest in London's High Court by telling jurors that Diana was taking birth control pills at the time of her death - making it highly unlikely she was pregnant.
Though Baker said it was probably not possible to prove or disprove the pregnancy claims scientifically, he said the question was relevant beacuse it "is said to have provided the motive or part of the motive for killing Diana."
Previous inquiries by French authorities and Scotland Yard have found the crash was an accident caused because Paul was intoxicated and speeding. The inquest, which finally got under way more than 10 years after the fatal crash, is expected to last six months.
