Didn't Princess Diana die at around the same time?

Princess Diana died either right before or right after Mother Teresa. Princess Diana did many good deeds but there was an immediate movement to put her 'in line' for sainthood that was way over the top. On the other hand, Mother Teresa's funeral garnered very much less publicity, which I think she would have preferred anyway, and Christopher Hitchens can't rest easy unless he can defame her at every opportunity.

Go figure.
