Summary: Diana's True Love Wasn't Dodi!
Review: After reading this book, I am convinced that the author speaks the truth. Hasnat Khan's name comes up in several books, and they all state Diana felt strongly for him. I do believe she was with Dodi Fayed to make Mr. Khan jealous. I certainly can picture her with a heart surgeon more easily than I can with a playboy who didn't know what to do with all his money. I also read Paul Burrell's book, "A Royal Duty" and he alludes to Diana's true love, though he doesn't give him a name. He does say it was not Dodi. I believe that had Diana lived, she would have possibly married Hasnat Khan, or at least maintained a loving relationship with him. She didn't know Dodi well enough to even think of marrying him; the relationship was simply a summer fling. It's sad that she did not live to see that happiness with Dr. Khan come to fruition.

Summary: Diana's True Love Wasn't Dodi!
Review: Based upon the other Amazon.com reviewers, I didn't expect much from this book, but I was pleasantly surprised. The writing is good, a little hero-worshiping of Diana comes through but that's OK. I notice she only interviewed some of the more wacko or cheeseball "friends" of Diana (Simone Simmons, the faith healer, taken seriously?? but I guess Diana took her seriously at one time). However, at least you learn more about Hasnat Khan & his background (sounds like a really nice person, and all his family too) than you do from any other Diana book. I can't agree that Diana was a stronger person at the end of her life -- she seemed to be very immature still. Imagine taking up with Dodi Fayed to make another man jealous, sure he was a multi-millioniare but please, the guy had had so many women (what did he tell Diana about his fiance, Kelly Fisher??)...I wouldn't touch him with a barge pole. That's mature, strong behavior? I think she was so devastated when Dr. Khan finally broke it off, that she went into a tailspin & into her old, self-destructive, immature behavior. Manipulative, too, if you believe that she planned for the "Kiss" picture & the others being taken (which I believe). The author doesn't agree with my thoughts but she doesn't force the issue, she just mentions that other friends thought Diana sounded strong at what turned out to be the end of her life. It's an interesting book, not the best one on Diana but thoughtful & brings out some unknown background on her relationship with Hasnat Khan.

Summary: DIANA, her last love
Review: I think that the author tells the truth but I don't agree with her,I think Diana was manipulative, she planned several strategies to win Hasnat back including using the media and Dodi to make the doctor jealous.The pess describes him like a playboy, a bad man, but he was the only man who loved her so much, he was very kind with her.His life looked like her life: his mother leaved his father when he was 3 years old,he was a mediocre student,he loved to have beautiful women because he didn't like to stay alone , he believed women loved him only for his money.Sometimes he prefers to stay with a woman who did not really love him, because he didn't like to be alone.He has insecure behavior.in the past diana manipulated media in order to send a power message but this timesI think she really cruel woman because when someone was in love with you , you should't joke with his feelings, and used media to create illusion of love,it's really unbearable to an human being. I read a lot of books about Diana: her true story by andrew Morten death of a princess by Thomas sancton and Scott Macleod, the day Diana died by christopher andersen , shadows of a princess by p d Jephson
In fact I was a great Diana 's fan but when I read this book I didn't like her anymore. The media show us a superficiel dodi's picture. people have been influenced by the press

Summary: Don't waste your money on this one
Review: This book claims to demonstrate that heart surgeon Dr. Hasnat Khan of London was the last love of Princess Diana. Although the book contains a small amount information about Diana's friendly relationship and visits with the Khan family in both Pakistan and England, the book and author does not give any quotations from the Khan family to prove her assertions about Diana's supposed love for Dr. Hasnat Khan, and the doctor himself is not quoted, and the doctor has refused to say anything publicly about his relationship with Diana. Therefore, this book is nothing but second hand or third hand hearsay, not testimony. The author repeats some quotes from friends of Diana in earlier sources which suggest that Diana was not intending to marry Dodi Fayed, but that does little to prove Diana was in love with Dr. Hasnat Khan. The author suggests that Diana was being publicly and privately deceptive about her supposedly pretended relationship with Dodi Fayed, in order to make Dr. Hasnat Khan jealous, because Dr. Hasnat Khan had just recently rejected Diana's desires, and thus Diana tried to make Dr. Hasnat Khan return to Diana. The author suggests that Dr. Hasnat Khan was the true love of Diana, because it was a secret relationship, but that is not quite correct; it was not an entirely secret relationship, since it was reported in the tabloid newspapers, but just less public than her relationship with Dodi Fayed. The author quotes a few of Diana's friends who quote Diana as saying how much she admired Dr. Hasnat Khan, but it seems to this reviewer that Diana was just as likely to have been publicly and privately deceptive about her relationship with Dr. Hasnat Khan, and that Diana was not in love with Dr. Hasnat Khan either. This book is not worth much as a source of truth, because it lacks the direct testimony of the still silent Dr. Hasnat Khan. See my other reviews at Amazon.

Summary: Total Fiction
Review: This book isn't one to really enjoy. Ms. Snell uses other books(listed in back) as references, no real problem with that but then she goes further and uses anonymous sources. I never really like that because you have no way of knowing how good that source is or whether or not they might have a grudge against the subject. I suspect that some enemies of the Princess more than her friends contributed, that stuff about Diana trying to pay Simone Simmons with gifts instead of cash is an example of this. Anything I've ever read indicates to me that she most likely would not have done this (although she could be very generous with gifts), that would be a trait more of the born Royals. The love life details, are they true? I don't know, the Princess is dead and Hasnat Khan isn't talking. A person should also remember that in 1997 his relatives embarassed him by talking so much, sounds to me like they're still at it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: A most beautiful and sensitively written book
Review: This is the most sensitively written book so far about Princess Diana, showing her as a complete and whole person seen through the eyes of her different friends. This tells the story of her last love, Dr. Hasnat Khan, a heart surgeon and a great man, whom most people will never have heard of, but who gave Diana true happiness in the last two years of her life. This book is 100% factual. Dr. Khan was Diana's last love with whom she found this pleasurable experience reciprocated for the first time in her life without any affectations.

This is definitely a book to be read by all seeking the truth about Diana's final years and who want to read the detailed facts of one of the greatest love stories kept under wraps until now.
