Princess Diana ‘Dreamed’ Of Life With This Man After Prince Charles Divorce

She may have been most famously linked to Prince Charles and Dodi Al-Fayed, but confidants of Princess Diana are claiming she actually had dreamed at one point of living her life with another man—British-Pakistani heart surgeon Hasnat Khan.

According to Express UK, the 2017 Amazon Prime documentary “Princess Diana-The Woman Inside” revealed that Diana’s relationship with Khan, who she had seen secretly since 1995, was the one that made her happiest, though it wound up not working out due to her level of celebrity.

“When she started seeing Hasnat Khan, she’s met her Mr. Wonderful. She said he was the only man in her life who didn’t want anything,” friend Simone Simmons said in the documentary.

Among the ways Khan proved to be charming for the former royal was to not let her pay for anything, and she used to dream of having a normal life with him as a result.

“Diana used to say, ‘we could live in a three-up, two-down semi,’” Simmons recalled. “I would say ‘yes, and pigs are going to fly.’ That sort of life could never be, but it’s what she wanted.”

However, the doctor knew that a relationship with her meant they would have no privacy, and things fell apart when he asked if she would be willing to move to Pakistan for a fresh start. In the end, it was impossible and the relationship came to an end.

“He felt that he wouldn’t be able to continue his work as a heart surgeon because she would completely overshadow it, everything they did, there would be no privacy,” Daily Mail editor Richard Kay said. “The only way he felt that they would have a future together would be if she were to move to Pakistan, and that, of course, threw up difficult problems for Diana.”

“There was real love between them but their relationship could not go on,” he added.

Princess Diana went on to date Al-Fayed, with whom she perished after a car accident in Paris in 1997.
