Princess Diana was known for her kindness and compassion, whether it was working with the homeless, comforting HIV patients or just greeting members of the public. But one tourist visiting London in early 1997 got the shock of his life when he ran into none other than Diana while he was wandering around Hyde Park—and what happened next proves she really was the People's Princess.
The story has circulated on social media over the years, most recently in the Facebook group "The Tudor Intrudors-And More," which posted on July 18: "Jim McGinnis was on holiday in London and got lost while walking through Hyde Park one morning."
