A shopper says she spotted Princess Diana's face in a SLICED HAM she bought from her local Tesco. The People's Princess, who died 25 years ago, still has one of the most recognisable faces in the world.
And now it seems to have made an appearance in a local supermarket, the Scottish Express reports. Hattie Osma said she found the resemblance 'spooky' and once she noticed it couldn't unsee it.

Hattie, 36, from Cheltenham Spa, said she picked up the food at a Tesco in Gloucester. She added: "I thought it was really spooky and really beautiful, I'm glad I didn't put it on my sandwich!"
The weird coincidence comes just days before Diana's ex-husband is crowned king. The then-Prince Charles married Diana Spencer in 1981 and they went on to have two children together - Prince Willkiam and Prince Harry
However, the marriage was always on shaky ground with Charles harbouring feelings for Camilla Parker-Bowles. The pair separated in 1992 before finally divorcing in 1996.
Diana died in a car crash in Paris in 1997, plunging the UK into mourning. Her death has had a deep impact on her sons, especially Harry whose memoir Spare revealed the depth of his torment after her death.
He spoke of how, for years after her death, he convinced himself she was still alive and had merely gone into hiding from the press so they could start a new life. In 2007, during a trip to the Rugby World Cup, he drove through the same tunnel his mother had died in while being chased by photographers.
He even claimed Diana had 'spoken' to him through an unnamed medium. He said the woman told him: "You’re living the life she couldn’t. You’re living the life she wanted for you."
Charles will be crowned king on May 6 with Camilla at his side. Despite his relationship with his family being fractured, Prince Harry will be there although his wife Meghan Markle has opted to stay behind in the USA.
