Princess Diana predicted fatal car crash in chilling note

Two years before her death, Princess Diana requested a private meeting with her adviser to share “something that was on her mind” – and it’s eerie.

Two years before her fatal accident, Princess Diana predicted she would die in a car crash.

The chilling revelation — which came to be known as the “Mishcon Note” — is discussed at length in the upcoming docuseries, The Diana Investigations, of which The Daily Beast obtained a preview.

In October 1995, Diana requested a private meeting with her personal legal adviser, Victor Mishcon, allegedly to “tell him about something that was on her mind.”

Mishcon took diligent notes of their conversation, during which Diana allegedly said “reliable sources,” whom she would not name, had informed her “that a car accident might be staged.” Diana apparently predicted she would “either end up dead or be seriously injured.”

In August 1997, Diana — along with her partner, Dodi Al-Fayed, and her driver, Henri Paul — died after Henri slammed their Mercedes into a pillar at 104km/h in Paris’ Pont de l’Alma tunnel. Paul was under the influence of alcohol and prescription drugs, but he was also trying to dodge the relentless paparazzi, who were trailing them on motorcycles.

According to the experts in the docuseries, Mishcon gave the note of his meeting with Diana to the London’s Metropolitan Police commissioner at the time, Sir Paul Condon.

It wasn’t until after Condon’s successor, John Stevens, assumed the post that the public was made aware of the note’s existence, as Condon had locked it away in a safe.

“When the coroner announced his inquest, I made sure that letter was immediately given to the royal coroner, who at that time was Michael Burgess and then subsequently became Lord Justice Scott Baker,” Lord Stevens told Daily Beast.

“I saw Lord Mishcon about a month before he died, in about the spring of 2005, and he held course to the fact that he thought [Diana] was paranoid, and he hadn’t held much credence to [the note].”

There was a second letter allegedly written by Diana in October 1996, two months after her divorce from Prince Charles, that echoed a similar premonition. Diana’s butler, Paul Burrell, published it in his 2003 book, A Royal Duty.
