This evening was not just about the musical performance: Michael demonstrated remarkable generosity. He presented a check for €172,000 to the Prince’s Trust charity, a cause particularly close to the royal couple’s hearts, which works to support young people’s development. He also made a donation of €116,000 to Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital in London.
These actions demonstrate her sincere humanitarian commitment, perfectly aligned with the values upheld by the princess.
A bond that transcends appearances
After that single in-person meeting, their relationship could have ended there. However, according to several sources close to them, including Jackson’s former bodyguard, the two stars maintained regular telephone conversations.
They shared a fundamental experience: the crushing burden of fame. Being constantly scrutinized, photographed, analyzed… Diana and Michael understood this reality better than anyone. In the intimacy of their conversations, they could speak freely about what few people were truly able to understand.
A genuine mutual admiration:
Michael made no secret of his admiration for Diana. He described her as “admirable, radiant, and profoundly humane.” During their meeting, he even gave two small jackets from his tour to his sons, William and Harry.
For her part, Diana truly appreciated the artist and the committed man. She knew his repertoire, danced to his songs, and respected his charitable work. That evening, while Charles remained seated, Diana reportedly got up to dance for almost the entire concert.
The pain of a tragic loss
