The American secret service was bugging Princess Diana's telephone conversations without the approval of the British security services on the night she died, according to the most comprehensive report on her death, to be published this week.
Among extraordinary details due to emerge in the report by former Metropolitan police commissioner Lord Stevens is the revelation that the US security service was bugging her calls in the hours before she was killed in a car crash in Paris.

Good, maybe this will push the Brits over the edge so they become french.... and we can take their advice as serious as we take french advice.
Why would we be spying on Princess Diana's phone conversations?
I read this on Drudge and as odd as we were easdroppin we were listening the day she died....gives me the creeps given Clinton was in office.
BUSH!
That's an interesting point.
Diana's phone or the hotel's phone she was using while she was there?
Guess we'll have to wait until they release the report this week.
Then why wouldn't we have bugged Dodi's phone, and not Diana's?
They are still investigating this?!!
it was in 1997 according to the article
read the article...says she was not pregnant, was not gonna marry Dodi and nothing nefarious in her death...The driver was over drunk and drove dangerously it the articles jest
This is going to further inflame Dodi Fayed's father.
I'll never forget the icy chill emanating from the Queen herself when she appeared on television following Diana's death. It chilled me to the core.
Interesting that the article refers to the "American secret service," the "US security service," and the "surveillance arm of the US," but fails to mention any US agency by name. Also they wrote M15 for MI5, which is just lazy. Anyhoo, Diana was no longer royal, wasn't performing any official business for the UK government, and wasn't in UK territory at the time she died. Does that make her fair game for espionage? Perhaps. But I've got no idea what information she could possibly have had. Maybe we were actually spying on the Fayeds? That would be just as strange.
Sounds like Bill Clinton wanted to get into Diana's panties.
As for Diana.....maybe they were afraid of the same pillow talk that got Marilyn in trouble.... ;)
The thought of that is ewwww . I hope she wouldn't have given him a glance. Thats just a nasty thought. However I wouldn't put it past him either.
