TV journalist reveals personal side to Princess Diana months before her death

ITV News journalist Steve Scott recalls his time with Princess Diana on her trip to Angola, where she walked through a live minefield and brought the world's attention to the lasting impact of war on civilians. In the wake of her divorce from the then-Prince Charles, the January 1997 trip was intended to mark the beginning of a new humanitarian phase of her life but was tragically followed by her death in Paris just seven months later. Steve Scott spent more time with Diana than any other journalist on the trip, and was struck by her warmth and openness. He reveals what Diana said her priorities were at that time in her life - and her plans for William and Harry following her divorce. Reporting History sees journalists join News At Ten anchor Tom Bradby to revisit their remarkable reports from the defining events of the modern age and reveal the drama that occurred off camera. Steve also tells the story of how her iconic landmine walk was captured, and what Diana made of a political row back at home over her campaign against landmines. 0:00 Intro 01:20 Diana Lands In Angola 02:51 First Meeting Diana 04:32 Meeting Landmine Victims 09:19 Political Row 11:21 What Diana Said About Press 12:06 Visiting The Minefield 13:44 Iconic Minefield Footage 15:52 Tackling controversy "head on" 16:18 Previously Unaired Interview Footage 18:29 Personal Conversation With Diana 21:50 Diana's Death • Subscribe to ITV News on YouTube: http://bit.ly/2lOHmNj • Get breaking news and more stories at http://www.itv.com/news Follow ITV News on TikTok https://www.tiktok.com/@itvnews?lang=en Follow ITV News on Instagram:   / itvnews   Follow ITV News on Facebook:   / itvnews   Follow ITV News on X:   / itvnews
