6. PRINCESS DIANA

Diana Spencer, Princess of Wales, was an iconic figure and one of the most important people in the modern history of United Kingdom. She was a perfect example that being an actual princess doesn’t mean you’re immune to pain, depression and, unfortunately, a tragic end.

The woman who was probably the most beloved person in the entire UK felt incredibly alone and isolated for most of her adult life. The role of a prince’s wife can be very isolating and hard, as well as lacking in any sort of emotional support from the royal family. For years, Diana struggled with self-harm, eating disorders and even post-partum depression. Everything got even worse when her marriage started to fall apart. She did manage to pull through after divorcing Prince Charles and dedicating herself to humanitarian work; however, this period of calm and happiness didn’t last – her life tragically ended in a car accident on August 31, 1999.
