According to Mimi Connell Lay, of Lay Auctioneers in Penzance, Cornwall, the Christmas 1996 letter is considered heartbreaking, given the tragic events that would later occur in 1997.
It is noted that Princess Diana struggled with the obligation to spend Christmas at Sandringham House and the line about "topping" herself is considered to be a lighthearted remark.
