I pay a visit to the Althorp Estate, childhood home and burial place of Princess Diana to see the private chapel that she is rumoured to be buried in as her ancestors have been before her. Before that we'll visit the oval lake at Althorp House to see her "official" grave and mausoleum where I found out something that shocked me. Oh and surprisingly we get to see the grave of US President George Washington's grandfather! Who was Diana's relative!
The apparent grave of Diana in the chapel shows a re-cemented area of stone floor that was removed so that Diana could be lowered into the crypt, It was sealed 3 days after her funeral and Earl Spencer later said that he changed his mind after he got permission to bury her on the island of the lake. - Фільми й анімація
Thanks. Thanks Dan for all your videos so far. Congrats on subs and here's to many more 👍😀
Wow Ian, thank you so much for supporting the channel! I'll put this towards the overnight in a church video I'll be filming this weekend. 🤝

Thank you for this video - I too visited this chapel and believe whole heartedly that Diana was buried here too. While we were looking for this chapel the village signposts kept us going around and around until a local police officer stopped our car and asked us if we were lost. When we told him we wanted to visit this chapel he told us the local villagers hated visitors in their village so turned the signposts around to deter anyone from finding their way, in the hope that they would give up and finally go on their way. He told us to follow him where he took us straight to this church. He got out and spent the next half an hour or so with us telling us how he ‘knew’ Diana was buried here with her ancestors. He showed us where the stained glass windows by the Spencer crypt had galvanised fencing on them to deter vandals - we came away completely convinced this is her final resting place.
There is no way her extremely heavy lead lined coffin plus the pallbearers that struggled with the weight of it could ever had got across that small makeshift bridge - the weight alone would have made that bridge collapse !!!!!
Yes - I truly believe this is where she is resting too. Thank you for your belief in this and showing us what we all thought all along !
That's what a crane is used for,, just winch it over. Job done! Peaceful rest for Diana! 4ever
This is the first time I've seen the magnificent Spencer chapel. I know that Diana had in her will that she wanted to be buried there, and I can see why. Centuries of Spencers are buried there and it makes sense she would want to be there, as well. Her brother knew this, and I sincerely believe she IS buried there in her family chapel. The island is a memorial site, but not a burial site. I'm convinced of that now. When I saw that chapel I just said, "Of course she's buried there. Of course she is."

I always felt a solitary grave on an island in a lake was such a very sad, isolated place to bury a woman who was so spirited and enjoyed the company of loved ones and good friends. She had enough sadness in her life IMO. I am more than willing to hope Princess Diana lies with her ancestors in the chapel.
It is the water table on that little island in the lake that gets me. It would be sopping wet mud and finally a deepening pool of dirty water once you got more than a few feet down, and that doesn't seem like a place anyone would choose to put a coffin of someone they loved.
@@hazelcornell4311 I said exactly this too! It makes no sense
@@hazelcornell4311 i just realized what u mean. Unless it is surrounded by a pool liner, which it isn't, then it must be soaking.
I saw her grave at Althorpe but never felt she was there. Sounds odd but it felt so lonely and remote. Rest in peace Diana.
@@dean9235 you must be an empath, or a medium to sense that Diana wasn’t where we all think she is and I’ve never been to visit her grave, but chances are we’ll never be allowed to know where her actual grave is
A Princess Diana is only once in a lifetime. Her compassionate warmth, is still felt today. May the Lord give her soul peace.
What a beautiful, comforting message from an obviously beautiful mind.
May

I’m from the US and I was so heartbroken when she died. Right after she died I told my husband at the time if we ever had a daughter I wanted to name her after princess Diana. My daughter Amber Diana was born in May of 1998. When she was little and even after she got older I made sure she knew where her name came from and she was named after a princess and not just any princess, she was named after Princess Diana and I wanted her to be proud of that

@@steffanhoffmann8937 all americans are emebaressing. All.
I've been here & just like you I have been to the church & I strongly believe that Princess Diana is buried inside the church. A walk in the graveyard was very historic. No matter where she is buried, the whole place has an unspoken air of calm, peace & serenity. Sleep in peace dear one the world has not forgotten you.
Diana is buried inside the church.
Totally agree!
I am from India.. i am a huge fan of princess diana.. such a kind hearted lady.. a true definition of a princess..
Cute, kind, beautiful ...
The way she used to shy was heart stealer...
Once on her visit to India.. she met a little Indian girl who was performing a welcome dance for princess... Princess took the girl on her lap and loved like a mother .
And she told her .. she don't have a daughter.. so from today the little Indian girl Is her daughter..😊..
They used to communicate by letters .
And they wer going to meet again after 5 years in London.. but a day before that she went to heaven 💔
Esmeralda renee flores in Austin TX never knew who she was
@ Betty Bella, thank u for giving me an exact and correct reason. Maybe I have seen a lot of horror thriller movies but I used to think it was because the spirit would seek revenge so the body's been buried in the middle of an island surrounded by water. That was so foolish of me 😂😂😂😂
I thought this myself, when it was reported that she was buried on the island, that the water table level would be barely two to three feet below the ground level, and definitely not a suitable place to bury someone. This is the first time I’ve heard of her being buried in the chapel, and it makes more sense.
It has so much vegetation & trees, that there could be a mausoleum on the island & still not be seen. Therefore burying underground not required.
Plus besides protecting the church let's not forget Charles makes twenty five pounds a ticket for tourists to Althorp. I had friends that went and said the lake where she is buried looked very unkempt and that all the trees looked over grown. They said the the surrounding areas looked more like a swamp.
@@marshawargo7238 I don't believe she's there cos ppl were so crazy about her. They could get her.
Many churches have crypts and vaults that flood regularly. When visiting relatives at Abergwili in Wales, my cousin told me they often hear the booming sounds of floating coffins (or presumably the remnants of coffins) sailing about underfoot during services when the vaults are flooded, but thats ok because one of our ancestors was at The Battle of the Nile, so "he's just carried on sailing" LOL
To me it is a cold place, I don’t see any warmth at all…morbid.
I never believed that Princess Diana, was buried on a wet soggy island. Even with lead lining in the coffin it can become damaged. I like to believe she is in the safe confines of her family chapel. Thank you for the video 💖
I have visited Althorp ,the lake is beautiful ,but I hope she is buried in the Church ,I don,t like the thought of the Princess ,being there all alone .I can understand ,why the family wouldn,t say ,if she is in the church .She was hounded when she was alive ,time now to let her rest .
I agree with you- when she passed away and we sadly watched the funeral ( I don’t think anyone had a dry eye)- my heart broke even more when I heard of her burial on the island! How sad and lonely! She deserved to be with her family!
Her brother charged the public money to go to the Island
@@dotgrindley3350 You can,t go to the Island ,only around the estate . If everyone who visited Althorp went on the Island it would probably sink .
@@soniabalado9071 god is in your imagination there’s no god.
She's dead, she wouldn't know where she was buried.
Can you imagine growing up on a beautiful estate as this? I tend to think she was “actually” buried in the church ONLY because the island spot isn’t weekly/monthly maintained to the elegance it should be. It gets overgrown every year or so. At her death DIANA needed peace and quiet which was why TELLING the public she was buried on the island was appropriate. Her death still hurts.
She didnt grow up here. Her father inherited it when she was 14. Until then she lived in Park House on the Sandringham estate in Norfolk.
Why would you bury a princess on an Island by herself when she loved being around people and she loved to be round her family. There is no way he has put her there. I hope she is in the church with her family so she is not alone.
Agreed!
No matter Dianna’s resting place I, hope she is at peace. She is remembered and loved. God bless from the United States.

Amen
They want you to believe she’s buried on the island. Only close family know her exact location. So they can grieve in private
Which to be fair is perfectly understandable and can respect due to the unfortunate life she had. Some privacy for her final resting spot would be nice to know.
You have a favourable view of them. I'm sorry, but they didn't seem that keen to help her when she was going through problems. I too would like a beautiful spot in privacy for her, but not with him, and the sideshow he's made of her.
@@thewheatfields8852 Oh no I completely agree I think both the Windsors and the Spencer’s turned their backs on Diana. A decision which they now regret
I think only her family will known which only fair that just cover I think Diana would be near her own family plot
And keep the estate from being overrun by trespassers. You don't know who could show up where they live.
I was always puzzled by the claim that she was buried on the little man made island in the lake. I’m a Soil and Water engineer and I’m certain the water table would correspond closely with the water level in the pond which would cause the coffin to be permanently waterlogged. I believe she’s buried in the church.
There is a pump but I'm not sure if it's for circulation to prevent algae or it's or for an overflow, seen as it was running during a drought I'd say circulation
The water issue always bothered me . I just don't see her buried there . I hope she is in the chapel . 💖
It is hard to keep an estate like Althorp today. Earl Spencer is doing a wonderful thing by allowing people onto his land. He is also a historian in his own right.I will not judge him how he makes money to keep his ancestral home above water.
What did upset me is the fact when princess Diana was getting a divorce she asked her brother if she could build a house on this property and his reply was no. He didn't want the press or people and everything that would then turn public like he's doing now during the worst time of her life when she needed a place to stay and her brother said no. How can he have done that I have no idea let her be buried there but she couldn't live there when she was alive.
So, you think it is ok to lie about where your sister is buried in order to trick people into paying a £20 per head entrance fee?
@@treble20👏👏👏
I’m a funeral director and something never rang true about her being buried on the little island. A lot of people in the funeral industry think the same… the logistics involved to get a coffin over the water would be almost impossible to pull off
I always found it strange she was brought into the estate in a coffin but her gravestone depicts an urn which symbolised cremation
@@deadgoodwalks it’s all very cryptic, and to an extent I understand why. I think because of the tsunami of grief the public displayed they knew they would have to keep Diana’s actual whereabouts secret, throwing the ‘lady in the lake’ narrative into the mix to muddy the waters, so to speak. But thinking about how waterlogged the earth would be on the little island I can’t imagine they would be able to dig a hole six feet deep, it would be like digging waterlogged sand so as fast as they take the earth out it would be falling back in. And say they managed to dig six feet down, it would be full of water… so even with a jcb and a pump taking the water out of the grave, who would want to put their sister/mum/ex wife into a waterlogged hole? Ok so Charlie wouldn’t give a monkeys but everyone else would. I think you’ve solved the mystery and I fully agree with your theory that Diana is probably in the crypt in an unmarked grave. It’s something no one will ever know, and similar to the crematorium that handled Myra Hindleys body, if Diana WAS cremated the staff would have been sworn to secrecy
@@deadgoodwalks Harry said Meghan Markle ''visited Diana's gravestone, and ''Laid her palms flat on it...Harry walked off to leave her to be with Diana''...I bet Diana is in the Church with her Ancestors.
A friend I worked with was absolutely convinced that she was buried in Great Brington Church next to her father. Indeed, it would not surprise me
Not to mention the weight of the vault. The idea of the protection of the island is good but the logistics give you pause for thought.
Right from the start I have always believed that Diana is buried with her father and the rest of the Spencer family. Lovely lady I respected her so much . Diana will always be remembered throughout history. She made the RF realise that they needed to be more approachable. RIP Diana

Hi 🌹
@@deadgoodwalks exactly!
Diana's housekeeper Mrs Maudie Pendry ( who Diana loved) was shocked when she learnt she might be buried on The Oval ( The Island) because this is where the family dogs were buried, you can read her story online, she has now also passed away but has some great stories, she was devastated when Diana died. As a Northamptonian i have no doubt her brother loved her dearly and this is why not many of us think she is on the Island. These are my personal feelings obviously. I think there is a memorial on the Island but that is what it is just a memorial again my feelings only.
I met her twice and the villagers will say always in a rush but always had time for everyone.
There will never be another Diana she was loved by so many, i truly hope she is with her dad in the family vault they adored each other.
Wherever she is she is now at peace 🙏🏼
I found all of what you wrote comforting, intelligent and I read every word several times, because it All made sense and so well described the dear person she was.
This may sound strange, but thank you for a lovely tribute.
@@MicheleOrlanis Thank you so much Michele 💐 your words mean a lot. I have tried to comment with respect so i am happy it came across correctly. As i said there will never be another Diana, she just loved life and people.
She never got to be our Queen, but one day when Katherine is our Queen a part of Diana will be on the throne because she will as always be wearing Diana's ring.
Thank you again for your kind words, whatever would Diana think of the world we live in today?
I think she would have had a hand in trying to change it. !
Just a funny note to end , Diana loved Kit Kats and the twice i met her in the Village she was eating one.
I hope she is enjoying lots where she is now🙏🏼
Take care Michele and thank you again for your kind words . 🌻

You are So Very Welcome, dear.
I absolutely believe you're 100% right on the money that the Princess is not buried on that oval island. You make many valid points in this video. Appreciate that
wherever our beautiful Diana is buried she's greatly missed by the world just wish they'd let her rest in peace and stop dragging her down 👇
Well said. Enough!
No reason to have all that security unless that IS where Diana is interred.
Absolutely appalling to know there are people who would think of robbing Princess Diana's grave.
Diana doesn't need it anymore.
Of course, Diana's brother would never reveal where she is really buried; too many people who have no respect for anybody or anything who will do anything for $$$$. Not to mention the crowds of visitors; it would be a nightmare.
@@zeusincoming282you're not needed on earth anymore either but here you are. Still here😵💫🥴
They tried to sell Lincolns, Elvis's that's why they are protected.
Not to mention what was done with Eva Peron's mummified corpse🤮.
👍🇮🇪🇯🇴🇨🇳🇷🇺🇷🇺
I agree with you. I think Diana is buried in the chapel and that there is a memorial on the island only. I don't think it's practical to bury anyone on the oval due to the water levels. I think this was done to avoid a stampede of people going to the chapel. RIP Diana, you are missed. 🥰
I think that the Earl said that she is on the island, but she's really in the church. Thus, people would not overload the chapel, plus, he could get money from tours to the park to visit. Any father that would rent out his deceased daughter's bedroom, is a real schnook!
No matter where our body will be buried. Our spirit will return to our Creator. Rest in peace with Almighty God our Queen of hearts.
Respect and love makes a wonderful mausoleum like Taj Mahal Agra, India .
What a beautiful sentiment! God bless and keep you, sweet lady. ❤
🌹👏🏼
Exactly. ❤
From the beginning I and others believed that the so-called burial on the island was conceived as being an inaccessible location where people could come, without swarming the grave site, disturbing the actual grave or overwhelming the church. A grave dug on that island would have become almost immediately waterlogged so it would have been a total impracticality to do so. There is no logical reason Why Princess Dianna should be buried in lonely isolation anyway . Of course she is in the church with her ancestors. All else is subterfuge.
I agree...I allways thought a grave would become waterlogged very quickly..not a clever thing to do..so I wouldnt be surprised if it was a fake site..I also agree that she wouldnt be buried in lonely isolation.. the island is a rather lonely place
I never thought of water logging. They have those grave lining for that though but I think your right
@@FreeRangeChiHuaHuas you are correct about 'linings' but it's still a very bad idea..I genuinely think it's a good case for 'misdirection'..as was said in the video..three attempts to grave rob were thwarted..imagine their surprise to find an empty grave
I agree with you from all the videos I've watched the royals are entombed in the church where they held her service. if people would watch Prince Philip s funeral it shows what happens after the funeral.
@@lauragibson5362 can you post the video. Interested in watching it now. Thank you
She was buried in the church, a local from the village told me 22 years ago. It was to prevent the church becoming overrun with visitors.
Renting out Diane's bedroom - i think Diane's sense off humor will take over - and she will find it funny.
He uses the money to improve the Spencer home and property. Why not-if someone feels sleeping in Diane's bedroom is worth paying for-.its not for us to question the transaction - and their desire
@@noelinecumming4963 Agreed Noeline. Its incredibly expensive to keep these old mansions going.
Of course, locals wouldn’t know either 🙄a few lights in a church omg she’s there gossip gossip gossip
@@cornishpapercraft
I appreciate that it sounds like gossip, he said that the Bishop of Peterborough consecrating the island was a cover to protect the church as a place of worship, I was sceptical too but the gentleman concerned was born in the village and had no reason to lie.
@@Rex-uu9tm people say what people want to hear
I read at one time that the night of Diana's funeral the military took over the little town of Great Brington. A convoy of jeeps and other vehicles closed down the town and the crematory was seen burning into the late night. Villagers said they all thought Diana was cremated and probably interred in St. Mary's chapel next to the ashes of her father. He was cremated because they were running out of room in the family vault, and there was little room for a casket. I never bought that she is buried on that island. Never!
I was travelling from Rugby to Northampton that night. I can confirm the whole area was in lockdown and we were diverted miles away from the estate which was lit up like an airport and visible for miles. Knew an estate worker who told me all employees were given the
Fascinating. Your message was only half typed. Could you send me the rest of your thoughts on this? It's like half a sentence was chopped off.@@bgneeco7526
I think it would be very strange to really bury her on the island where they could bury her basically anywhere and in secret.
Why bury her in isolation when she can be in the family crypt with everyone else? It doesn't make sense.
I also found it strange that the tomb in the church is not only closed with an iron gate, but alarmed with security cameras and alarms. They didn’t do that for the graveyard. What would be wrong with people walking in the church and looking at the terms of the family members unless of course Diana is there and they don’t want anybody there to see.
Because they're aristiocrats, they don't want the public walking round nosing and possibly vandelising their family's graves that date back centuries.
Often tombs are cordoned off. It's not unusual. That said the church and the Spencer family don't want the whole place to become an entire circus with constant visitors and tourists. We've seen the damage this can do to a place.
I agree with you. Why the security camera and the alarms
People can still do that if they wanted too etc.
Me and my wife went to the church to sign the book before funeral and the floor in front of the area you pointed out still had a stain on the concrete from earth being placed on plastic , we said straight away that’s Diana Grave under the window , we know what we witnessed and we won’t ever change our minds
Wow. Now that is interesting.
May she RIEP! 🙏🙏🙏
If my sister was passed away there is no way I would put her on that island. I pray they didn't put her there. She should be with her family. 💕💟
Always thought she would be laid to rest with her family in the family crypt. It makes perfect sense to have the island as a “decoy” especially for those sick “trophy hunters”.
Same here. We visited and there were caretakers in who you could ask questions, we indeed asked the question if the Princess was really buried on the island. Of course, they said yes, but I didn't believe them. Diana loved people she wouldn't have wanted to rest on her own. She loved her Father, I truly believe she is in the Church, and rightly so.
Unbelievable that her brother rents out her bedroom. How cheap and disrespectful. Thanks for the tour!
That is very sad
Who does this to royal old bag ma ma low life brother
Charles and new old bag ugly he should die after old bag to no new queen dead story ok.messed up royal laughting joke.
He must need the money
It is her brother's responsibility to maintain the family home. That is why he raises the money. Otherwise, it would crumble into nothing.
I am from the Philippines. I have always been a follower of news and documentaries on the British Royal family. Let us not forget our beloved Princess Diana, the true Queen if her husband did not go astray with the help of his mistress. Please do more documentaries so the future generations will know about these.
I lived in Brington at the time of Dianas funeral. 2 nights before the funeral we lost electricity, road blocks in and out of the village by Anglia water supposably a water maim burst. Our cottage was close to the church and we could see lights ( lanterns ??) at the church. Electricity came on a around 3am. Diana is in the church as per her will.
Did u see anything else
There were also rumours of late night activity at a local crematorium. Seems there wasn't quite enough room in the crypt for a full coffin, but an urn would fit.
@@halfbakedproductions7887 The local crem is about 10 miles away - There is ample space in the crypt for many coffins.
A few years ago there was a scandal about the condition of the island where she is supposedly buried. It had become overgrown and choked with weeks and had to be fixed up. Another indication that she is not buried on that island.
From the video it still looks like the grass and bushes are overgrown. You can't even see through all of the bushes, grass, and trees. It doesn't even look like anyone, family or friends, could even walk through there.
There was no scandal. The island has looked exactly the same for 25 years.
I remember that. I would suppose it’s hard to maintain- getting a mower out there.? Not sure if there is a bridge..
@@nicoleshepherds9369 there is no bridge. It is not that easy to keep in good order but it is periodically cleaned up.
@@glen7318 I've seen video of Nelson Mandela visiting the oval island as he walked across on a retractable bridge. Just saying...
I visited the lake the first year the house and gardens opened. Only when you are there you realise Diana isn’t. The plan always that she would be buried with her father in the little church. It was thought that the little village could not cope with the visitors. I believe the oval lake is just a memorial and she rests peacefully with her father as she had requested.
Yep, didn't sense her at all either
@@deadgoodwalks did you sense her at the church instead then ???
@@ernestinemaloy8680 Good one!
Just like alot of people think MLK/CSK are interned in the crypts on the King center property, in Atlanta, Ga.
@@deadgoodwalks Can you answer Ernestine's question?
I agree with you that she is buried in the church. Makes no sense with the water table as her body safer in the church. The beautiful island is a place to remember her by and a great decoy to where she really is. I wonder if we’ll ever know..
Like you I’m appalled by the wooden memorial in the gardens. I really wish he’d change that to stone. That’ll rot away!
@Animal-Watch○...well, it's been quite the money maker for the Earl...I remember when he refused to let her stay at Althorpe when she divorced...
Forget Diane. The Chaplain Rabine story is a lot more fascinating. Even the spirits are afraid of him. There is some history lost there that only the people in the afterlife remembers and they remember it to this day even though it was close to 250 years ago.
I agree I think she buried in church of spencer
I am in total agreement with you. The water table would be too high. And I don’t blame the Earl for trying to make money … can you imagine the cost of having such an estate. But I do find it a bit appalling of making money from someone’s death. I never did believe she was buried where they said and I am more inclined to believe she’s burried with her family at the church
@@ahndeux I can't find anything directly about this. What's the story?
Thanks for this , only found by fluke. I was living near Althorp at the time of Diana's death. That big old chest would be the Parish Chest where all of the Registers of Birth, Death & Baptism would be locked. Probably dates back to when the church was built. Very precious item!
1. "The Memorial" as it is being called is actually marble. It was built years ago - maybe 1800s - originally as a temple to the Goddess Athena. I went to Althorp so, so many years ago - maybe 1989 - and have photos of me, Mum, Dad & my family sitting in it. It was "re-imagined" for Diana. The plaques on the walls prob are wood as added so much later than the original building, and at speed due to her sudden death.
2. The Viscount opened a beautiful setting in the revamped stables to make a display all things Diana. Photos, Toys, Film, Clothing etc - even her wedding dress. It was fantastic. Dont know if this is still open now. The House & Grounds were open too and I spent a lovely day there with my 2 daughters who were both over the age of 21. We walked around the Island & we saw the remodelled Temple remembering how it was the previous time that we had seen it. It was loaded with floral tributes that people were bringing as this was the first time that Althorp had been open & seen after Diana had died. It was a year after Diana's death. There were gifts you could purchase in a shop too. I still have mine as well as my tickets to the event.
3. I firmly believe that Diana is in the Church. It became painfully obvious that there had to be a more secure area. The island is a decoy. A 500lb coffin could not be buried on the island. Diana always said in her lifetime that she wanted to be laid to rest near her beloved father in the Spencer Crypt. Her brother would not have disagreed with her last wishes.. He loved her so much too!
The island is the memorial but not the burial spot.
Thanks for sharing your memories Linda. I'd love to see any photos of the spencer chapel you have...pre Diana's death.
@@deadgoodwalks unfortunately any photos I might be able to dig out will not be worth seeing as they were taken long before mobile phone & digital quality & availability.
Churches were not legally obliged to keep written records of Baptisms Marriages and Burials until mid 16th century which is why genealogists have to rely on wills and land records and other sources for researching before the 1570s
When i look at that island it looks and feels empty to me. There is nothing there. I truly believe. I cannot see any of her there.
I think my mother was a spencer she idolised M&S
Wherever her body is, her spirit is with the angels watching over her sons and their families.
If this is true, I doubt it would like what it sees? Dysfunctional family divided. Brothers not acting like brothers, father washing his hands of one of them. And why?? Well you all know the reason for that don’t you?

All she craved for was love. Love from her husband which she never got and neither did she get that from family. Just look at the brother cashing in on Diana's fame but where was this brother when she asked him for help.
@@kusumsingh1124 He was there. He had offered her the choice of several houses on the property, but she had her heart set on a house which was being used for other purposes. He offered - she declined.
@@monique8641 She wanted the house which could be seen from the road and Earl Spencer said that it would be a security nightmare.
Thank you for this great video. You are so respectful. Your voice is so decent and humble and it's a joy to listen to you. You don't speculate in a disrespectful manner; you come across normal and really nice. As for Diana's grave, I fully agree that she can't be burried on that island. It's technically almost impossible to bury anyone there. Your thoughts make sense. When you stood in front of the vault, with a straight look to that rectangular headstone, it came to my mind that she could as well be burried left of the effigy to the left. Because when you filmed from the side, with your extendable stick, you could see that there was empty space. The sun shines right in and the place is empty. There could be a hidden grave between the outer wall and that effigy. But whatever the case is, thank you for this lovely video, and sharing your thoughts and comments on all the graves. It's so very much interesting and respectful.
So very respectfully put. I agree 100 %! I have always followed the royal family and Diana, especially. But,living in the U.S.,you gave me the best visit to England and walk through the most beautiful cemetery and utmost beautiful church. Thank you, and God rest all the Spencer's that lie rest there.
I have often wondered about this. Why would you bury Diana on an island all alone when she could be laid to rest with her father and other family members in the local Chapel. It never felt right somehow not to mention it must have been a horrible thing for William and Harry to come to terms with at such a young age thinking of their mother buried on that island all alone.
What a very sad thought.
"Tutta sola" beh che c'è di strano.
Saremo tutti soli sotto terra,anche se attorniati dai familiari e non.
Sono solo i nostri resti,un guscio vuoto perciò...
So ppl won’t vandalize her grave or try to as he said trophy hunt
I'm fairly sure at the time they were worried about the amount of visitors to the village which is why they said Diana was buried on the island
Lulu the family thought the island was appropriate as a shrine to Diana is my understanding .
@@whispersoftheafterlife1017 I think that was part of it .
Today is August 31, 2022. I’m happy I found this video because today is the 25th anniversary of Diana’s passing. I too believe she is buried in the church. I think that is a memorial for her on the island so people can pay the respects.
Thank you for pasting this interesting video of Altrop. Never thought Diana would have been buried on that island and that it was a decoy to keep visitors away from the real burial site (wherever that may be). The island looks unkept, too much in the public perspective and the water table is too high for an actual grave.Hopefully, she is somewhere more private and peaceful. She meant so much to so many.❤️🌹
I keep thinking there could be a raised crypt on the island. Whether or not anyone is actually buried there.
Thank you for putting my to rest as I don't 't think a princess should be on a island. Our queen of hearts because to me that is my vision of her everyone loved her.she didn't deserve to die so young and I don't think it was a accident. Rest in peace Diana our queen of hearts. And I think Diana is buried in chuch away from pu license eyes and brave robbers
That my thought exactly. A raised crypt in the center of the island--concealed by all the foliage.@@Fragrantbeard
There were whispers at the time, just after the funeral, that some building went on in the middle of the night around the crypt. There were strong suspicions that she is not on that island.
I’d like to think Diana is buried in the Church; that’s where she had asked to be buried. I hope her brother, Charles, secretly did the right thing for his sister.
Thank you for this lovely walk about! Your video finally put the proper perspective on where these buildings actually stand, and what they look like up close.
The lake was much smaller than I thought and the inside of the Church was fascinatingly beautiful. Thank you!
Let's hope Prince William checked to make sure Charles Spencer did what Diana wanted...he sure as hell didn't when she was alive !!
I can't imagine they would let that island get so overgrown if she were really there
Yeah, and would it even be possible to make a grave there with all the tree roots?
@@deadgoodwalks I'm in the Agricultural industry, so yes, its possible, machinery is a great invention, but the island with that elevation of almost nothing is mushy, soppy wet and incredibly heavy not exactly a prime piece of real estate for interment of a princess, unless of course shes above ground.
@@patriciatoomingtheplantpar2558 Yes, machinery is excellent - but - getting it onto that tiny island? I doubt it....
@@SarahlabyrinthLHC you'd be surprised how small and light a mini excavator really is, its only a hole, we get them between close houses, on sandbars, maneuver them over pools, over canals.
Just have to know what your doing
If they can get a full size crane on a highrise building, we can get a mini scooper on an island.
@@patriciatoomingtheplantpar2558 Oh, well, who would have known? (not me!) Thanks for the info! I do still think she would have been buried in the chapel, though. The island just looks too wet and boggy. I don't think they would have chosen such a wet place to put her.
I've always believed that myself. I think they just didn't want people to know her final resting place. Diana is with her dad I think.
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza)
Where is her Mother buried?I'll look it up.
I think it makes sense to have a place separately for the public to pay their respects since she was so beloved, while keeping the real place hush hush so she can have the peace she didn't get in life. And also because people can be crazy and despicable. If graverobbers managed to get their hands on her, she wouldn't be the first royal whose body has been desercrated. So considering her high popularity to this day, it's best to keep her real location private.
You are so right. Well said.
I'm sure she is buried in the Church with her ancestors, for several nights after her burial there was a lot of activity in the church, this went on during the small hours.
Where you there watching?
@@cornishpapercraft Wow why are you acting so rude and aggressive in your comments, let others have an opinion without you attacking them. Unless you have inside knowledge of Princess Diana's final resting place definitely is, just stop being so damn rude to people. 😠
@@PecanBaby... how is it rude? It’s a mere fact there are so many conspiracy theorists that claim to know it’s very sad
@@shirleyminassian1547 but you’ll find plenty of people that think they hear and see things - there would have been plenty of activity in the church and behind the boundaries at Althorp between those dates
I visited Althorp in Y2K and never thought Diana was buried on that island. Beautiful as it was, it just didn't seem logical to put her there, on her own. I believe she is interred in the family crypt.
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza)
she is definitely
Beautiful Chapel, architecture and grounds. I still miss and honor princess Dianna. The most important thing is she's at peace
Right, the brother is all about money I read an article that before Diana’s accident she was begging her brother to let her live in that ancestral house but he declined. She probably just wanted to go home and live in peace away from Charles and family. So I think the brother is selfish,
He & his family lived there. As I mentioned it takes a fortune to maintain these old mansions.
Think of how the place would be overrun if she lived there. The security would've cost an arm & a leg. He also lived in South Africa for a few years. I think he would have worried about her alone on the estate.
She did stay with him for a while in South Africa.
She's definately not on the island.
I spent a little time with her brother and I think it's a vile and horrendous exercise to try and skew who he really is. I would point out to those complaining about admissions fees etc that it is hugely expensive to run Althorp. Diana's brother's doing what he can do to keep the place going. The island was created precisely so people couldn't get to her after being chased after her whole adult life. I regret that so many people look for conspiracy theories in everything. Literally everything. I might add that there are ways to protect the grave despite the surrounding lake. Anyway for those who enjoy conspiracty theories, knock yourself out.
Have you met him? Do you know him? Do you know his heart? No, I didn't think so.
I remember that article
@@alidabotes6264 ppp
I was told by a tour guide years ago that Diana was not on the island. It was a ploy to stop thousands of visitors making pilgrimages to her resting place.
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza)
A friend told us that someone who works for the church had them open the vault to bury Princess Diana in there. The island idea is to stop people going to the church. Good video, very interesting.
I live around the corner from Althorp and on the day of the funeral I cut a rose from my garden and threw it on the hearse as it passed by. Very surreal and I will never forget it.
No such thing as princess diana. Read up please.
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza)
@@torquetorque1777 solid point that few new about.
@@torquetorque1777 She was allowed to keep the Princess title, she lost the HRH title, thereby she was simply Princess Diana when the divorce was finalized.
She'll ALWAYS be Princess Diana ❤
The idea of a popular princess being placed on an isolated, waterlogged island seemed like a strange choice to me back when I first heard the story. I hadn’t thought there was an alternative location until now but this new theory makes sense. Add in the facts of the vault having been open for three days around that same time frame, and everything falls into place.
I think she's buried in Chapel, not on the island, I believe they told people that just so they wouldn't have the crowds. People are actually showing up at her grave site since she was so immensely popular. It's so tragic how she passed. Which you not have been buried in leadline coffin like so many others of royalty have been buried in
The beautiful princess is safe with her family and god’s blessings always 😇🙏😊
Whether the island or the church, it's a very peaceful area and her spirit can rest in peace where she was clearly loved. Even after all these years it's so tragic. Centuries from now children in history lessons will learn about Diana, the people's princess. I hope so, she should never be forgotten.
Queen of hearts
she survived the accident and has been alive. living in secret locations fir her safety.
Diana never be forgotten...
I believe that it was not an accident it was planned
@@cmaggie5748 It would be wonderful,if this variant I also heard,would be the truth.

Amazing walk about. There is something about our mortality that we don’t easily come to terms with. I am from South Africa and was involved with environmental planning for cemetery sites … some of my time involved assessing existing cemetery sites which included some old Boer, English, Irish, welsh and African graves all over natal. Thanks for the walk about …glad I am not the only one who is fascinated by old burial practices

Thank you for showing this. I believe Diana is with her ancestors and not alone in the island. Could be a way to keep the peace and tranquility of the chapel from being swarmed by visitors. She will always be remembered as the People's Princess Diana.
The mere sight of her image overflows with love. Human kindness abounds. Her nonefake fake & humble eyes are clear. Those are very genuine. Simple. Heartfelt Feels cooler. But now she is not alive. It has been a long time since he left the world. But even, today she lives in our hearts. She is not dating me. Not a word was spoken. No laughter. At least I haven't seen her in front of her eyes. This, The scent of her life, creates her before me. Her breath can be felt even today. She does not feel absent. You are the most beautiful woman I have seen after my mother. ❤ Human kindness, authenticity cannot be killed. Lives for centuries. But, it hurts to think about her absence. If it hadn't been then, this moment would have been loving and affectionate. If only she had a daughter like her! She must have left this world to get something even closer to her. According to my belief, that pure philosophy is the Budhdha. must have met her. Dear Diana, good luck to heal many people's pain and realize NIRWAANA❤.

I was told by a local in the pub in Althorp that on the night of the funeral, the church was cordoned off. He said that she was buried in the church next to her father.
I agree with your beliefs. When Princess Diana died, I was working as a Carer at a Care home built on land gifted by The Spencer family. I had knowlegde from one of the residents that the Church you mention did have stones moved in the family vault area before Dianas funeral, Why would a local elderly person make up such a story?
Charles has to generate money to maintain this property. It is enormous. And because it is very old, it requires a lot of restoration and maintenance.
I have been to Althorp. I saw the place where she is reportedly buried. The minute I saw it, I thought to myself "No Way." I agree with you. She is not there. This is a way to deflect people away from where she is buried. I truly think that the family wanted her to be buried privately and rest in peace. She always hated the media attention she had to endure day after day. I recall seeing this church. I strongly think her remains are there, in the family vault, not at Althorp.
I understand those big estates in England are black holes endless money falls through for maintenance, but renting out her room is tacky. There are other ways to generate income.
@@Susweca5569 hey are not renting out her room
After watching this I no longer believe she is buried on the island, instead in the church. Beautiful piece of the estate.
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza)
Princess Diana resting place on a island on her child home estate. It was done that way for security reasons. Princess Diana will always be The People's Princess. It's comforting knowing she's is Heaven forever an Angel.❤❤❤
Awesome video thanks so much! I love going through old cemeteries and thinking of what kind of lives these people lived. Im in the US so most cemeteries i can go in only date back to the 18th 19th centuries. It would be amazing to see this one going back to the 13th century.
I’m almost convinced since this young man pointed out that the building is made completely out of wood to make look like marble. No one would bury a family in a wooden tomb. My family has a mausoleum on our farm for my great grand parents and it’s certainly not WOOD.
It makes total sense for her to actually be interred in the church. No conspiracy theory involved. Realistically, to have such a small island be a grave site with the water surrounding it so closely is unrealistic. That her son's visit the memorial on the island makes more sense than bringing attention to the small church that couldn't handle the traffic or the disrespectful. Thank you for such a nice video.
Diana is a very humble Princess that is loved by the whole world. Her smile is forever remembered.
I completely agree that she’s buried in the family vault. With such a tradition of burying family there, it doesn’t make any sense to bury her somewhere else. I didn’t realise the family rented out Diana’s old bedroom & honestly, I’m horrified! Talk about cashing in on his sister’s death! To bury Diana on an island in the middle of a lake, is quite simply completely stupid & definitely not lasting. Great video.
No,read my comment above please
@@davidknowles3459 ???
Althorp is a tourist attraction. I agree it’s poor taste to rent Diana’s childhood bedroom out. At Graceland in Memphis, Tennessee, tourists r not even allow to see Elvis’ bedroom, let alone rent it out.
The estates is so expensive to run please don’t judge the family so many homes are no longer in family s so much lost because world wars the government
And truthfully, no ones body lasts after death! Judgment come to all.
Shes wasn't just a princess she was a real lady by birth
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza).
She was Lady Diana by birth but was never a princess. To be a princess you have to be the daughter or granddaughter of a monarch. She married to a prince and was legally Princess Charles but only had the temporary honorary title while married. After the divorce she was no longer a member of the Royal Family. She was no longer Princess Charles and NEVER WAS Princess Diana!
She princess up her death ☠️
Very sad tosee
Fyi my dear. She was what is known in my country (ENGLAND) as a 'commoner '
Спасибо огромное за видео! Очень жаль что нет перевода на русский язык. Леди Диану любят и помнят в России! Она была светлым лучом надежды на лучшее, мирное будущее. Мир без её улыбки стал более тусклым и безрадостным. Светлая, вечная память.
She would still be alive today if it wasn't for the paparazzi chasing after her and her driver
Помним, любим, не забудем! Леди Диана навсегда останется в наших сердцах.
A graveyard is a great way to learn about the past of places as the names and descriptions of the people buried their ,bring them back to life as it sometimes has exactly what they did ,how they changed the world for the better and how their loved ones lived .

fascinating video, thank you. I agree, Princess Diana is not buried on the island. It's more secure to have her entombed in the Chapel with the Oval Lake a decoy for numerous visitors. The Earl has a responsibility to raise the money to continue the estate and more power to him. Fame may have taken Princess Diana from us, it makes sense Fame should pay.
No such thing as princess diana. Read up please.
Hello there is it ok if we’re friends
Never considered this before but think you could be right...and shame on them for not having a programme to keep the grave stones legible, really interesting and thought provoking...
I agree. I also think they should have more upkeep around the Spencer family graves. So many weeds, leaves, and tall grass. It’s rather sad.
It costs a fortune to maintain the estate
I totally agree. I am from Northampton and I believe Diana is in there. I cannot see them breaking the generational tradition. Why all the security and none around the lake.
Wow!! Hasta su propio cementerio tiene la familia Spencer 👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️ no puedo creer que 19 generaciones estén enterradas ahí, qué hermoso y pacífico lugar ❤️❤️ rest in peace, beautiful Diana ❤️❤️
Even after all these years it still hurts me to the core. She deserved so much more in her beautiful life.❤
Definitely did, I share August 31 with her as that is my birthday. I hate that she left in the manner that she did on that day
She was just a serial tramp living the high life
on other people's coin.
Bonjour, oui suis d'accord avec vous, pauvre Diana 🙏❤💕🌷
William may move her some day. It's like everything else. He will have to wait out his father and his uncle to do it, but he might.
Her own choices caused her demise!
I agree, she was so well loved, that telling people that she's at the church would mean too much traffic & fame for that ancient place.
Amazing video. Thank you so much for sharing it. Dianna was an amazing lady and princess for sure. She was a great loss for us all. So sad she past away so young. May she RIP. ❤
Thank you for sharing. I always questioned Princess Diana burial on that island. It eases my mind with the thought she may be buried in that beautiful chapel. Thank you again for sharing.
I believe the island was selected as a supposed burial location because of the serenity, solitude, and contemplation of her life while gazing at the island… Finally away from any more intrusion in her life. The island is more symbolic as a location than her actual interment. She was an incredible woman who left a lasting love, respect and memories of her life! Thank you for sharing this lovely estate!
Wonderfully put Bonnie. You're welcome and thank you for watching x
@@deadgoodwalks The idea of a serene and secure location does make the island burial applaudable …but not practical. The water table would be too high to allow an in-ground burial. The grave would become waterlogged with every rain storm. I think Earl Spencer quietly - in the dead of night - had Diana's body moved to the family vault in the church. hence the security and cameras placed there. The island grave sight is a nice diversion from the church and a tourist attraction for the estate.
It also adds romance & legend when you think back to King Arthur & the Lady in the Lake.
It’s a beautiful spot & a lovely thought that Diana has peace in death that she never had in life.
Earl Spencer did nothing more than the others that own massive estates that require huge expenditures on upkeep.
The “Downton Abbey” filming is a prime example. That family was able to do extensive work on the property because of the revenue the series produced.
Many of these families are hamstrung by trusts & entailments that, for example forbid the sale of art or other parts of the estate. And the death tax is unreal!
I think he did the best possible thing to keep all the juggling balls in the air!
I believe this too. Her burial took place on the island. Harder for thieves and ghouls to reach.
@@maggiesatterfield2402 not if they used a vault.
My friend who lived near there at the time said that the crematorium was operating and she thinks Diana was cremated and interred in the church.
Hello 👋 Diana
Its just heartening to know that Diana being such an important part of the royal family was not considered to even be accepted where the rest of the royals been buried in Windsor and Diana was just as important as the rest of them
Diana, would never want to be buried with those who had part of her departing!
She will go down in history with the ones we always talk about no one will ever forget the house of Windsor’s with all the drama of King David/Edward VIII Abdicating his Thrown, King Edward II “ Bertie” Queen Victoria, the scandal of Prince Charles and Camilla and the phenomenon that was Princess Diana, Elizabeth I, Henry VIII, Ann Boleyn Mary Queen of Scots, she will forever be remembered.
@@debrarodriguez32 I think they killed her too she belongs with her family.
Heavily secured, there's a high chance Diana is buried in the Church.
I hope so much so, and NOT on a water-logged pond, alone 😢
Rest In Peace, Diana, Always in our 💕 Lovingly Remembered xxx
Love the Video, the tour was amazing 👏 👏👏 Beautiful and so Peaceful xxx
There is no way she is buried on that island. Even with a concrete vault it wouldn't work. Here in New Orleans, because of the water table, all underground graves, by law, must have a vault. And when hurricane Katrina came along, guess what happened? There were caskets floating all over this city. So no, she is not on that island.
Caskets floating 😳
I'm from LA also and my grandfather said the same thing as you and after Katrina and the last big flood I agree, there isn't anyway she's there
She is buried on Mars 🛸👽🪐🚀
Princess Diana was buried in a 540-pound lead-lined coffin
You're absolutely correct on the vaults. Even in Texas in some of the cemeteries you have to have a vault cause my mom did.
All these years the Royal Family cast aspersions on Dear Dianna, as though she has no proper ancestry. 19 generation and this Lovely Chapel says otherwise. Prince Charles is actually the one that married Royalty
Diana's family is more royal then the Royal family ,so should have had more respect for the young princess
@@angelaturner4376 She would never have become a princess in the first place unless she married into the royal family. Her family was never Royal, they did indeed become courtiers for the royals many years ago. For God's Sake!!! If she never married Charles, no one would have ever heard about her! So much for being a royal!
@@angelaturner4376 dont be ridiuclous. She is not more royal than the RF.
She may have been a true "blue blood" and definitely more English bloodline. But that doesn't make her more royal! Royalty comes through descendency. I don't think there was ever any doubt or aspersions about her ancestry from the start
The only reason they wanted her to marry Charles is because of her ancestry. She was a member of the aristocracy. It's the people who said she was "common" -- never the RF
Thank you for the tour and I think you are right!
I've always found it quite a slap in the face for Diana that both of her potential burial sites are so plain and drab. Her ancestors inside the chapel all have monuments and/or elaborate effigies, while she must make do with a concrete slab in the floor. The lakeside memorial is as you pointed out, wooden and clearly made to look much more expensive than it actually is. The entire world would be completely ignorant of the Spencer name had it not been for Diana, her final resting place should have reflected that. Love your work ❤
Im sure when enough time has passed and in a lifetime past ours, this century gone, when no one is around that knows of her much, then and only then will they elaborate on her tomb. I'm sure instructions have been left for it to happen. Right now it would be a media circus 🎪 if they gave her what she trully deserved. She needs to rest in peace not be bombarded with the world constantly on her. I think the spencers have instructions in place for the future Earl spencer & family and probably even william & Harry to upgrade their mothers tomb in say 50+ years. Regardless if they're alive or not. The world is awful and history has shown what robbers can do to body's..people are sick in the head it would be horrific for Diana's burial place to be disturbed in anyway. I for one am glad its kept secret.
MAY SHE RIP❤ HRH THE PRINCESS.
It's "plain & drab" by design - she was so popular it killed her - her family would want her to rest in peace finally & a huge monument wouldn't achieve that.
The island one is probably so flimsy because it can't support the weight of a real marble & stone mausoleum
I tend to agree with you. An estate of that size must cost a lot to maintain. Her brother appears to be quite a businessman. It is strange that the monument is made of wood. May Diana Rest In Peace.
I've been wondering if her gravestone on the island might also be wood...I wish I had a zoom lens
@@deadgoodwalks the monument on the island is marble. The wooden temple has been there since the 1920's, it came from the Admiralty. It was re-dedicated to Diana in 1997.
👩🏻💻After actually seeing it up close through you lense Diana, Princess of Wales is not buried on the lake island. So many trees and underbrush to put a tomb there, the water table is a problem for me. Was there even enough time to build a tomb in such a small space, 7 days? Very interesting. Thanks for sharing, now I feel I know Diana a bit better seeing where she lived and grew up, simple and down to earth. Much love and peace. 🙋♀️🪔🌠🐞🥰&♎🇬🇧🇺🇲
I think she rests in the Church .
there is no tomb,that's the point....
She is where she should be , buried with her family ancestors.
Im kind of shocked that those grave stones havent been taken good care of down through the years. I miss you still yet Lady Diana. You really were a Princess. 😢❤
Is it really any of our business! Please let her rest in peace. My thoughts are; the memorial at the lake is just that, a Memorial in her honor. Diana, please Rest In Peace❤❤❤️🙏🙏🙏 ❤ ❤❤❤
It makes perfect sense to make a public memorial and a private guarded burial location. Especially with that much security around the site at the church. Cameras, alarms, yea. There's something going on there. Interesting to know about Geo Washington's relationship. Thank you for the video.
I visited the church about 4 years ago and was assured by resident of the area that Diana was buried there one night after dark.
Greetings from the royal throne of bin Mohammed (Fazza).
Thanks for the tour of the church. ⛪️
Even though, Diana being buried on the island is a interesting idea. I never could imagine how they could gracefully get Diana's casket over there.. it didn't make sense.
Being in tombed in the church makes much more sense.
God bless you Diana. You will live in the hearts of people until the end of times.
✝️🙏🏻🕊❤️👑❤️
Diana is buried in the vault ..... near her beloved Daddy without a doubt ...
I used to live in the nearest town, and many times took guests to the church. A few months after her death the cement around the entrance to the family vault was clearly new.
