French Police Chief Martine Monteil Reveals Moment She Found Princess Diana’s Pearls in Wreckage

The French police chief who led the investigation into the Princess of Wales’ death has revealed the moment she discovered her pearls at the scene of the tragedy almost exactly 25 years ago.

Brigade Criminelle chief Martine Monteil is said to have been first to arrive at the crash which claimed the lives of Diana, partner Dodi Fayed and driver Henri Paul on August 31, 1997.

Monteil recalled how she was ‘obsessed’ with scouring for evidence including the pearls in a bid to find out the truth about what happened in the Pont de l’Alma tunnel.

Her testimony is featured in the first episode of a four-part documentary series entitled Investigating Diana: Death in Paris which airs on Channel 4 tonight.
