Prince William reveals Princess Diana's secret crush on this Hollywood star

In a recent interview with People, Kevin Costner revealed a surprising tidbit about his connection to the late Princess Diana.

During a private meeting with Prince William, the actor learned that Diana had a crush on him.

The revelation came as a surprise to Costner, who described William as "quite the young man" during their conversation. Despite the unexpected news, Costner was aware of Diana's admiration, as the two had been introduced by Sarah Ferguson, Duchess of York, and were even planning to collaborate on a sequel to "The Bodyguard."

Costner fondly recalled his first meeting with Diana, noting Sarah Ferguson's instrumental role in their introduction. He praised Ferguson's graciousness, saying she could have easily felt competitive but chose to facilitate their connection.

Despite the spark between them, Costner and Diana ultimately pursued relationships with other partners. Costner was married to Christine Baumgartner for nearly 20 years before their separation in 2023, and Diana was briefly linked to Dodi Fayed before their tragic deaths in a car crash in 1997.

This revelation sheds new light on Princess Diana's personal life and her admiration for the Hollywood star. It also highlights the role Sarah Ferguson played in facilitating their connection. While the "Bodyguard" sequel never materialized, the story of Diana's crush on Costner adds another layer to the legacy of the beloved princess.
