Dressed in an army jacket, black cap and sunglasses, the People’s Princess was unrecognisable in the crowd.
“When we walked in … we felt she was obviously Princess Diana and would be discovered at any minute. But people just seemed to blank her. She sort of disappeared. But she loved it,” Rocos said.
