Everything We Know About Dodi Al Fayed's Funeral
December 1, 2023 - Following the news of the crash in the early hours of the morning on August 31, Dodi's father millionaire Mohamed Al Fayed, who at the time owned both London's iconic department store Harrods as well as the Ritz Hotel in Paris had his son's body taken back to London for a private funeral service. In keeping with Islamic tradition, Dodi was buried that same day, following a small private service at a mosque in Regent’s Park. Per an AP report at the time, Dodi's coffin arrived by hearse at the mosque shortly after nightfall; he was later interred at the family estate in Surrey.

They were presenting the Fayeds through the lense of the British establishment, which demonized them. But I agree with you: The Crown's producers seem to enjoy taking it too far, the same way they did in the early seasons with Margaret's racist remarks "African savages" and "Blackamoors." But you notice how they go out of their way to make Elizabeth appear blameless. More on reddit.com

Is this the Mandela effect but was Dodi and Diana's relationship just a summer fling or were they soul mates?

Jacques Peretti on the life and death of Dodi Fayed
September 2, 2023 - Dodi Fayed, as he is more commonly known, was the eldest son of the Egyptian billionaire Mohamed al-Fayed and Samira Khashoggi, sister of the notorious weapons dealer Adnan Khashoggi. He was about to become one of the most famous men on earth. The press was quick to give him a personality to go with his overnight fame: he was a "playboy" with an improbably long list of famous ex-girlfriends. Born in Alexandria, 41-year-old Dodi Fayed's occupation was sometimes given as film producer, but nobody much cared what he did or who he was; the woman he was kissing in the blurred image was Diana, Princess of Wales and their story was upgrading by the hour from tabloid novelty to the romance of the century: the new Edward and Wallis Simpson.
