Sharjah24 – AFP: For tourists like Tori McCumiskey visiting Queen Elizabeth II's hometown of Windsor, Diana remains a royal "icon" who broke through the stuffy palace gates, a quarter-century on from her death.
The queen has lived in nearby Windsor Castle since the pandemic began, and the town is a must-see for royal fans from around the world.

Diana memorabilia is still hot property, with shops packed full of teacups, tins, thimbles, bells, postcards, silver spoons and even tartan in the likeness of Prince Charles' first wife.

Everyone in the town remembers where they were on August 31, 1997, when the princess of Wales died at the age of 36 in a Paris car accident.
