One of the people closest to Diana reveals unpublished secrets about the private life of the Princess of Wales

The life of the Princess of Wales was marked by her constant struggle between public life and her private emotions. While many knew her as a global icon, few knew what happened away from the spotlight. Those who were close to her, like her personal trainer Jenni Rivett, keep secrets that still surprise today.

Jenni, who was part of Diana's life from 1991 to 1997, has decided to share previously unknown aspects of her relationship with the princess. This friendship, which went beyond work boundaries, was built on trust. This allowed Diana to open up about her most intimate thoughts, something Rivett has now decided to share.

Diana's trust: a request full of respect

As their professional relationship became closer, Diana trusted the trainer to share details of her personal life. "Sometimes she'd tell me such personal things that I'd ask her... 'Please, don't say anything else because if it comes out in the newspapers tomorrow, you'll think it was me,'" Jenni confessed in a recent interview.

This level of closeness was essential for both, since Jenni always kept herself in a discreet background. "I never brought up topics, I never crossed the line, I think Diana appreciated that," Rivett added. She highlighted how Diana respected the space of everyone around her, something that strengthened their friendship.

Diana and her family: a constant concern

One of the topics that most concerned Diana was the well-being of her sons, William and Harry. Jenni recalled how Diana always put her sons above everything else, making sure that for her, they were the most important thing. "She loved her sons, they were everything to her; she would've been devastated to see what's happening between them today," she stated.

Despite the family difficulties that the press has detailed in recent years, the trainer emphasizes that Diana didn't want her personal problems to be reflected in the media. The princess, despite everything, always tried to keep harmony within her family.

The iconic sweatjersey and Diana's charitable legacy

One of Jenni's most cherished memories was the gift Diana gave her: a dark blue sweatjersey with the phrase "Fly Atlantic." Diana, tired of being photographed for her clothes, chose to always wear the same garment to avoid attention. "It bothered her to have her picture taken every time she went to the gym," Rivett recalled.

Over the years, Jenni decided to auction off that famous sweatjersey to help a girl in Malawi. She added: "If she were alive, the Princess would approve, causes in Africa always touched her heart." The sale of the garment exceeded expectations, reaching more than €47,900, a gesture that reflects Diana's true generous spirit.
