This one - turning genuine Nature into something false.
Incredible story of four-year-old boy who claimed to be reincarnation of Princess Diana
Princess Diana was killed in a car crash in 1997, but one young boy claimed to be the reincarnation of the much-loved "People's Princess" - as told by his television programme host father
The son of a TV presenter shocked the world when he claimed that for a strange two year period he was the reincarnation of the-late Princess Diana. Billy Campbell, son of Australian television personality, David, made the bizarre claim. According to his then-45-year-old dad, writing in Stellar Magazine in 2019, his son decided to claim that he was Princess Diana and had been doing so since he was just two-years-old.
Calling it the "weirdest" thing he'd ever written, he said, "It started when someone gave my wife Lisa, a card with Lady Di on it. Billy (aged two at this time) pointed and said, 'Look! It's me when I was a princess'."

"He started to refer to his two 'boys'. When asked what boys, our then three-year-old would say his 'sons'. OK... strange, but sure, mate. "To a Scottish friend of ours, he claimed when he was Princess Diana he used to go to a castle in that kilted wonderland. He described the castle as having 'unicorns on it' and was called Balmoral."

"The unicorn is the national animal of Scotland and there are unicorns on the walls, how does he know this???" Then things took a very, very chilling turn when the boy was shown a picture of Diana. Having claimed that he was her, he added, referring to her untimely death in Paris in 1997, "There's me as a princess", but it was his 'memory' of that fateful evening that truly made the situation stranger.

He explained, "'Then one day the sirens came and I wasn't a princess any more'. Obviously Lisa and I turned into Scully and Mulder at this stage and needed to investigate. Here is a child with no knowledge whatsoever of the monarchy. How could he? You can also rule out parental interference. While my wife is English, she is not obsessed with the royals. Certainly, we have zero memorabilia in our house - I would talk more about our Windsor friends to Sonia Kruger on TV than I would to Lisa."

Concluding his column, David questioned, "Will Billy grow up and never remember this? Could he actually be the reincarnated essence of the People's Princess?"
Since the 2019 declaration, it appears that the boy hasn't said anything else about the reincarnation. His dad, still a huge name in Australian television, posts photos of his young son on Instagram on a regular basis.
The Daily Star has contacted David for an update on his son's situation.

*because of this gender flu-cked-up-idity, we have to be told which Child is the Boy and which is not... :roll: Then again, with the Boy claiming to be a Woman... maybe we do need to have clarity...
