“Everyone needs to be valued. Everyone has the potential to give something back....” Princess Diana
Heroines are allowed to make mistakes too. Diana’s adulterous marriage brought her down to the level of any other ordinary person. The Princess admitted to having her bouts with depression, self-mutilation, and bulimia. This allows the public, especially women to empathize with the way she was feeling. Diana’s demonstration of how to overcome an obstacle and the way she turned a helpless life into one of aiding others shows why people look up to her and idealize her.
