YOU ARE GOING TO GET A BIG SURPRISE AT WHAT I DO NEXT; Holiday Diana opens her heart.
Princess Diana spoke frankly to The Mirror yesterday . . . and revealed that her sons have urged her to quit Britain.
Diana - on holiday in the south of France - also warned the country to prepare for a shock after her return.
"You are going to get a big surprise, you'll see," she said. "You are going to get a big surprise with the next thing I do."
Diana disclosed that sons William, 15, and Harry, 12, believe that only by living abroad can she escape "constant intrusion'' into her life and protect her sanity.
Speaking directly to me, the princess said: "My boys are urging me continually to leave the country. They say it is the only way.
"Maybe that's what I should do. They want me to live abroad.
"I sit in London all the time and I am abused and followed wherever I go.
"Now I am being forced to move from here.''
Diana, who has previously stayed at Barbuda in the Caribbean, added: "I wanted to go to Barbuda, but I could not go there."
She went on: "William is distressed.
"I was hoping to keep this visit all covered up and quiet.
"You expect me to sit in Kensington Palace? I don't have the boys in August. And I just want a summer holiday with my boys."
Diana interrupted her stay with controversial Harrods tycoon Mohamed Al Fayed to give me the extraordinary interview.
She hopped into a motorboat outside Mr Al Fayed's pounds 10million St Tropez villa shortly after lunchtime and sped across the sea to meet me.
Clad in a fake leopardskin swimsuit and a pair of designer dark glasses, the 36-year-old princess stopped her boat alongside my motor cruiser.
And for ten minutes she talked candidly about the dark side of her life as the ex-wife of Prince Charles - and about the pressures that have led her to consider quitting Britain.
The sons she adores are with her in France. So are Mr Al Fayed, his wife Heini and their four children.
Diana's visit to my boat was prompted by the behaviour of foreign paparazzi photographers who have pursued her throughout her holiday.
She has been stung by criticism from MPs for taking her sons on holiday with London-based Mr Al Fayed.
The Egyptian-born multi-millionaire was at the centre of the Commons cash-for-questions affair.
That triggered the sleaze scandal which led to the Tories' downfall.
But Diana sprang to the tycoon's defence.
She declared: "Mr Fayed was my father's best friend. I have known him for ten years. Anyway, to be strictly correct, I am here with his wife."
As foreign photographers continued to take pictures of her from nearby boats, downhearted Diana said the only thing that had lifted her spirits was The Mirror's leader column on Monday.
We defended the princess and ended our comment with the words: "So enjoy your holiday Di - and forget your harping critics back home." She told me yesterday: "It is very good and very accurate."
I have worked as a royal correspondent for more than 29 years, and Diana was anxious for me to estimate how long the paparazzi would follow her visit.
Indicating the photographers, she said: "I am talking to you because I can't to them. I don't speak their language.
"I just want a holiday with my boys. William gets really freaked out."
I asked why now - after 18 years as world's most famous and photographed woman - she was suddenly so shocked at the attention she received.
Diana conceded that she had "a role to play".
