Princess Diana Didn’t Just Dance with John Travolta During That Famous Night at the White House—She Danced with Tom Selleck, Too

Princess Diana and Tom Selleck at the White House.

It was one of the most iconic moments of Princess Diana’s fully iconic 36 years of life—her dance at the White House on November 9, 1985 with actor John Travolta. But it turns out Diana actually had a spin around the dance floor with another famous actor from the 1980s who is still very much working today, a dance that doesn’t maybe generate as many headlines as Travolta's, but is notable nonetheless: her dance with actor Tom Selleck.

Selleck's dance with Diana generated less buzz than Travolta's, but is still a fantastic moment in pop culture history. (Image credit: Alamy)
