Princess Diana’s ex-lover James Hewitt is recovering from a life-threatening heart attack. Reports indicate that he was given just a “slim chance of surviving” after he suffered from a devastating heart attack and stroke back in May.
According to Britain’s The Mirror, sources close to James say, “He’s glad to be out as he has had enough of bring in the hospital. He is doing much better but still needs to build up his strength. Now he just wants to put this behind him and get on with his life.”
James Hewitt’s only claim to fame is being Princess Diana’s ex-lover. He had a five-year relationship with Diana while she was married to Prince Charles. They briefly separated after he was sent to Iraq during the 1991 Gulf War and again after their affair was made public.
Multiple reports suggested James Hewitt might be Prince Harry’s biological father, given the timeline of their affair. Plus, a lot of people believe that Prince Harry looks more like James Hewitt than his father Prince Charles. But James set the record straight back in 2013 by insisting that he and Diana began their affair after Harry was born.
Of course, Prince Harry has never made a comment about the allegations and at this point, it’s doubtful that he ever will. His mother Princess Diana passed away twenty years ago yet her ex-lover is still making headlines to this very day. A lot of Harry’s fans believe that for the young royal this has to be very frustrating, especially considering the fact that he has a very good relationship with Prince Charles these days.
But unfortunately, James Hewitt just won’t go away. And that’s mostly because there are some royal critics who still think that James Hewitt is Prince Harry’s father. Even though he’s denied it several times, there are plenty of people out there who still question the identity of Prince Harry’s real father to this very day.
If that weren’t enough, James still thinks about Princess Diana to this very day. Back in February it was reported that he often drives by the small cottage he and Diana used to meet in, even though it’s been sold to a new owner. He just can’t get her off his mind, no matter how hard he tries.
