DANCING WITH PRINCESS DI
This iconic image of Princess Diana dancing with actor
John Travolta at a White House gala dinner in 1985
ignited ‘royal fever’ in the United States. A highlight
of the newly married Prince Charles and Diana’s first
visit to America, the photo op was apparently
set up by First Lady Nancy Reagan, who told
Travolta to ask her to dance. Diana would
wear the same velvet dress for her last
official portrait in 1997.
