Turns out, that first meet sparked a powerful connection. They got super close. Jackson said they were tight by phone, too. Late-night calls, sometimes till the wee hours. He even claimed Lisa Marie Presley got jealous.
But did these calls really happen? Some of Diana’s friends say Jackson never had her private number. Still, what’s clear is they had a lot in common.
Both were all in on civic causes. When they first met, Jackson had dropped big bucks on charities. They also had the same taste in jewelry.
Jackson’s ex-bodyguard even spilled the beans that he was “in love” with Diana. Said he thought she was the only one who got his life under the media microscope.
