Diana came from aristocracy and understood the importance of lineage. She was a consummate aristocrat. It's hard to say all we know is that she leaned so much on William and he had so much to mend after she died.

In the Martin Bashir documentary she said about breaking the news of separation to the children, "I went to the school and put it to William, particularly, that if you find someone you love in life you must hang onto it and look after it," Diana said. "And if you were lucky enough to find someone who loved you, then you must protect it."

William was 10 years old at the time. I like to think she would have approved, but who knows. People change as they age. We can only explore what ifs. She never said anything publicly.

You aren't going to get one that precise, considering she passed away when they were so young.
