Mohamed Al Fayed’s chilling nickname for Princess Diana as she was left ‘shaking’
Princess Diana was left shaking after an alleged exchange with the former Harrods owner Mohamed Al Fayed, her former butler claims. The late tycoon has been accused of rape and sexual assault by 19 different women
Mohamed Al Fayed dubbed himself Princess Diana’s “surrogate father”, but one ‘sickening proposal’ left her shaking, according to former butler Paul Burrell.
The late Harrods tycoon has been accused accused of rape and sexual assault by 19 different women, Scotland Yard revealed last week. A new BBC documentary also claims that Al Fayed deployed an army of aides to silence his alleged victims and used his power and wealth to evade justice.
And as the sickening allegations emerge, concerning details regarding Al Fayed’s relationship with Princess Diana have also surfaced. After Diana separated from King Charles in 1992, she began to form a new life for herself away from the Royal Family. She used her new-found freedom and the huge interest surrounding her as a platform for vital charity work, raising awareness of topics her in-laws shied away from.
In doing this she met the late Al Fayed, an Egyptian businessman often named as one of the richest men in the world at the time. While it’s unknown where they first met, their circles would have crossed regularly as he sponsored many of the charities she was involved with.
