If you’re a princess, you’re used to having other people do things for you. You’re accustomed to wealth and servants, and you expect to be looked up to and fawned over by everyone. It’s a privilege, and it doesn’t come without its downsides. Sometimes, it can even make you conceited and stuck up. Princess mentality is usually a negative thing.
Alice left treatment sometime in the mid-1930s, and “devoted herself to charitable work, volunteering with the Red Cross and soup kitchens and assisting her Jewish family members displaced by the Holocaust,” Lacey writes in The Princess Diana Official Companion Volume 2. Yad Vashem named her Righteous Among the Nations in 1993. She also championed AIDS charities and victims of landmines.
Despite the Princess’s commitment to charity and her public duties, she and The Prince were unable to reconcile their differences. In December 1992, they announced their separation. The Princess continued to appear with the Royal Family on national occasions, such as celebrations of VE (Victory in Europe) and VJ (Victory over Japan) Days, but she reduced her overall schedule and relinquished service appointments with military units. She remained patron of Centrepoint (homeless charity), English National Ballet, and the Leprosy Mission, and president of the Hospital for Sick Children, Great Ormond Street.
The Princess was known as a popular figure who brought a freshness to the monarchy. She was a loving mother to her two sons and an advocate for the rights of the underprivileged, especially the children.
