I think part of it for me is that it's one of Diana's sons that was married, not that I was a "Diana fan" in any strong sense of the word. I was always kindly disposed towards her but never paid any more attention to her than I did any other member of any royal family. However the tragedy of her death and the fact that those two boys lost their mother so young does make me take a more, I dunno, protective and heartfelt interest in them and wish them happiness in a less general way than I might under other circumstances.
