London, Oct 21 : Princess Diana was not serious about her relationship with Dodi Al Fayed, because she was still in love with Prince Charles, a top confidante has revealed.

Lana Marks, one of Diana's closest confidantes in the last months of her life, has broken her silence by disclosing that the princess had no intention of marrying Dodi and was certainly not pregnant with his child.

Speaking from her posh office in Palm Beach, Florida, the handbag designer asserted that it was the Prince of Wales who remained Diana's one true love, regardless of the betrayals that made them part ways.

"The bottom line was that the person she really loved deep down was Charles. She said this early on and throughout our friendship. He was the love of her life,” the Daily Mail quoted Marks, as saying.

Lana added that Diana was not looking to marry any of her lovers, including Dodi.

"We did talk about several men in her life and in particular about Hasnat Khan and how supportive he had been. But she was not going to marry him. She said it without using words directly, but in her language she indicated to me very clearly that she was not going to marry him,” she said.

Lana, who has not been called to give evidence at the current High Court inquest into the Princess's death, also sternly dismissed claims Dodi’s father Mohamed Al Fayed believes – that she was pregnant with Dodi’s child.

"I would categorically say she wasn't. She confided in me in great depth about everything going on in her life at that time. If there had been any pregnancy she would have told me. I would have known,” she said.

Marks said that she planned a trip with Diana to Milan on the weekend the princess died, but it was cancelled because the socialite's father died in South Africa.

"I have gone over it a thousand times in my mind. It's been a terrible thing to cope with. I feel in my heart that if Diana had been with me her death would never have happened,” she said. (ANI)
