The 10th anniversary of Princess Diana's death has resurrected old controversies about the "People's Princess." Since her death in a car crash in Paris in 1997, Diana's legacy has been hotly debated. Some see a troubled woman who courted media attention. Others recall a warm, generous person who focused her energy on charitable causes and dared to hug AIDS victims.
