Princess Diana rubbed elbows with everyone from John Travolta to Freddie Mercury during her royal career, and it turns out she developed an unlikely friendship with Liza Minnelli. In an excerpt from her memoir published in the Times, the actress and singer dishes on her incredible life and career—and she revealed that Diana was “a great lady.”
“I met Princess Diana at movie premieres, fundraisers and the like, and we became friends,” Minnelli, 79, wrote. The duo would “catch up and meet for tea” or “have lunch,” and the Cabaret star said she felt protective of the late princess.
