A valuable document that belongs to a period before the remembered Princess of Wales married King Charles.
In an exciting auction that has sparked widespread interest, a unique document revealing little-known aspects of the life of the iconic Princess Diana has been put up for sale.
Although almost three decades have passed since her tragic death in a car accident in Paris, her interest in the figure of Lady Di remains passionate. On this occasion, it is an employment contract signed by the then Lady Diana Spencer, years before her marriage to the current King Charles.
This valuable document is a job application that Diana signed when she was just 17 years old, two years before her royal wedding. It is expected to fetch a considerable amount at auction, as it contains unique information about the princess's life. The contract, dated May 1979, shows the signature of Diana of Wales and reveals personal details about her, such as her telephone number, address and previous work experiences.
However, a curious detail has caught the attention of experts. On the document, Princess Diana's date of birth is shown as July 1, 1960, one year before her actual birth. According to those responsible for the auction, this apparent error was intentionally made by Diana to appear to be a year older in her application.
Despite this small slip, the contract remains a historical treasure that sheds light on the life of one of the most beloved figures in British royalty. The contract was signed with Solve Your Problem Ltd., an employment agency specializing in hiring nannies for high-society families. Although the application does not specify the salary range the princess was seeking, she reveals that at the time she did not have a driver's license or her own car. However, she makes it clear that she was eager to find work as soon as possible, reflecting her independence and determination from an early age.
This auction represents a unique opportunity for collectors and royal lovers to acquire a piece of Princess Diana's history. Not only does it provide a glimpse into the past of one of the most iconic women of the 20th century, but it also reveals her determination and ambitions before her entry into the Royal Family.
The document has sparked great interest both in the UK and abroad, and is expected to fetch remarkable figures at auction, demonstrating once again the enduring charm of the People's Princess.
