Diana, Princess of Wales was shopping in Turnbull & Asser, the exclusive shirt-maker and haberdasher in Jermyn Street, just of Piccadilly in London.
The company is owned by Mohamed Al Fayed and Dodi was on the board of directors. Diana was being served by T&A Managing Director, Kenneth Williams. He told her that there was a board meeting going on upstairs.
“Really?” said Diana. “Can I come and see what goes on?”
Ken brought her up, and introduced her to Dodi. She sat and took part in the meeting, looking at the new fabrics and patterns.
Her sons were quite small at the time – it was about 20 years ago. They would also often see each other at film premieres, and also when Dodi played polo at the Guards Polo Club, when Mohamed Al Fayed sponsored the Harrods Trophy
