The Diana inquest took a sensational twist yesterday when jurors were shown a receipt for an "engagement" ring bought by Dodi Fayed. Previously-unseen CCTV footage captured the Princess's lover examining jewellery at an exclusive store in Paris hours before their fatal inquest was shown a copy of a ÂŁ11,600 receipt, dated August 30, 1997, with the words "bague fiancaille" - French for engagement ring. They were told that a gold and diamond ring from Alberto Repossi's "Dis-moi oui" range - "Tell me yes" - was later found at Dodi's flat. A second, ÂŁ60,000 ring was returned to Mr Repossi's shop on September 3, three days after the crash in the Alma underpass, the inquest was Al Fayed insists his son and Diana - who he claims was pregnant with Dodi's child - were murdered because the couple were about to announce their down for more ...The princess's family and friends have dismissed any suggestion of an engagement and coroner Lord Justice Scott Baker has warned the jury to "consider carefully" any evidence of an imminent announcement. The High Court was shown no evidence of Dodi actually presenting the ring to Diana, who did not visit the Repossi store herself on the afternoon before she died. The court heard that Dodi slipped out of their imperial suite at the Ritz Hotel to visit the shop while Diana was having her hair done. Watch the CCTV footage of Dodi in the Paris jewellery storeAccompanied by bodyguard Trevor Rees-Jones, Dodi was driven in a Mercedes barely 100 yards to Repossi's - in the Place Vendome, the same street as the hotel - at on August 30. Claude Roulet, assistant to the Ritz president Franz Klein, walked across and joined him inside the jewellers. Dodi, relaxed and casually dressed in a dark jacket, T-shirt and dark jeans, is seen on security footage being greeted by Alberto Repossi, his wife Angela, their press officer Alice Valentine and three other assistants who had closed the shop for the visit. Grainy black-and-white CCTV footage shows Dodi being ushered downstairs to the shop's most prized display cabinets. Scroll down for more ... For ten minutes he is seen pointing at and inspecting several trays of jewellery although it is impossible to see what he goes for. Then Mr Repossi enters the office where the store's safe is kept and hands Dodi a brochure for the Dis-Moi Oui range before Dodi leaves the store at later, CCTV cameras in the Ritz follow Dodi bounding up the hotel stairwell - two steps at a time - and returning to the suite he shared with Diana, clutching the brochure. At the same time, Mr Roulet is seen at the jewellery store apparently making notes on Dodi's choices before returning to the hotel at The jury then saw footage of Mr Roulet going to Dodi and Diana's three-room suite on the first floor where he spends four minutes before walking back to Repossi's at There, Mr Roulet is shown clearly making a sign with his wrist to indicate a ring and a bracelet. Mrs Repossi is also seen emerging from a back room with an item of jewellery which she put on her left hand. Shortly afterward, Mr Roulet is seen picking up the same brochure and a bag, without handing over any money or credit cards to the jeweller. Twelve minutes later, he returns smiling, carrying a bag in his left hand. Scroll down for more ... He writes a brief note at the cashier's desk, a series of numbers, which was shown to the inquest. Talking the jury through the video evidence, Metropolitan Police Inspector Paul Carpenter said the first number - 115,000 - on the note was the undiscounted price in French francs for a "Dis-moi oui" ring. Mr Roulet then goes up to Diana and Dodi's suite at spending three minutes with Dodi in Room 101, Mr Roulet then comes back to the cashier, signs another form and the Repossi bag is stored in the Ritz strongroom. Within ten minutes the couple are seen leaving the Ritz heading for Dodi's flat before returning to the Ritz and their fateful final journey. The court heard that a Repossi receipt dated August 30, 1997, was later recovered but it was not made clear from where. Mr Carpenter confirmed that a Dis-Moi Oui ring had been found in Dodi's flat. He showed the jury the handwritten receipt for the bague fiancailles. The words "diamonds", "gold" and "gems" are recorded alongside the entry. On the same receipt is a record of an "etoile" - or star - ring of "gold" and "gems" which was purchased for 600,000 francs - ÂŁ60, Carpenter said both rings were from the same range. He also said that a document was faxed from Repossi's store in Monte Carlo to Ritz chairman Franz Klein, listing prices of three rings and four other items. The fax is dated August 23, 1997, a day when Diana and Dodi were in Monte Carlo. The prices of three other rings and a bracelet were written on the back. Mr Al Fayed insists the "engagement ring" was selected by Diana and Dodi from the Repossi store in Monte Carlo during a break from the couple's holiday on the Fayed yacht. Dodi's bodyguards say they never visited the Harrods boss, who was not in court yesterday, says Dodi called him hours before the crash to tell him he had collected the engagement ring from Repossi and that Diana had also spoken to him about making an announcement. The coroner said "You will have to decide whether Dodi did indeed phone his father in those terms and whether, if he did, what he said was more than wishful thinking."The inquest heard that one close friend, Lady Annabel Goldsmith, spoke of marriage to Diana shortly before she princess replied "I need marriage like a rash on the face." The inquest continues.

Sophie de Wessex, épouse du prince Edward, est très proche de ses enfants. De nombreuses années, elle a veillé au grain sur l’état de santé de sa fille Lady Louise Windsor, atteinte d’une maladie des yeux depuis sa naissance. Qu’est-ce qu’est vraiment l’ésotropie ? Le pire est derrière elle.

Si la fille de la reine Elizabeth II est aussi proche d’eux, c’est parce qu’elle a traversé le pire avec sa première princesse. En effet, Louise Windsor a dû se battre contre de sérieux soucis de santé de la naissance jusqu’à ses dix ans. Comme l’ont déjà révélé Edward de Wessex et son épouse Sophie Rhys-Jones, leur fille aînée souffrait d’ésotropie. Il s’agit d’une maladie des yeux qui se manifeste par un strabisme profond. Il se caractérise par un défaut d'alignement et de coordination des yeux, l’un d’entre eux pouvant pointer vers le haut, le bas, la gauche, la droite ou l’extérieur… Vous l’avez compris, tout simplement pas dans la bonne direction.

Comme elle l’avait raconté au Sunday Express, elle a subi un décollement placentaire avant de perdre une quantité importante de sang. Alors que la mère de famille a failli perdre la vie à cause des difficultés de cette mise au monde, la petite Louise a également connu des complications. Après avoir passé deux semaines en soins intensifs, on lui a diagnostiqué cette maladie des yeux.

Pour éviter que leur fille souffre d’autres complications à l’avenir, Louise Windsor a été opérée deux fois la première lorsqu’elle était bébé, avant de repasser dans les mains des chirurgiens une dizaine d'années plus tard. Aujourd’hui, sa fille est totalement guérie, un véritable soulagement pour Sophie de Wessex, qui confiait son bonheur lors d’une interview à ce sujet "J'ai vu la vue se rétablir et je peux vous promettre qu'il y a peu de choses plus gratifiantes dans ce monde que de voir quelqu'un passer de l'obscurité à la lumière ; Son strabisme était assez profond quand elle était bébé et il faut du temps pour le corriger. Vous devez vous assurer qu'un œil ne devient pas plus dominant que l'autre mais elle va bien maintenant, sa vue est parfaite". Maintenant que Sophie Rhys-Jones y voit clair sur la situation, elle est devenue la porte-parole des associations qui sensibilisent aux problèmes de vue. Véritable touche-à -tout, Marjorie peut à la fois parler de la famille royale comme de la dernière série en date... Ce qu'elle aime, c'est raconter des faits, décrypter les moindres détails …
