In her film debut, Whitney Houston plays Rachel Marron, a pop music superstar. It seems that one of her fans is stalking her and has threatened to kill her, so Frank Farmer (Kevin Costner), a professional bodyguard and former Secret Service agent, is hired to protect her. Trevor Rees-Jones is clearly a man to whom duty and loyalty are paramount. He has no personal feelings about Diana, beyond describing her as "a woman you could take down the pub, and from me, that's a pretty high compliment". He rightly accepts no blame in her death, though he still feels responsible that it happened "on my shift". Pedersen, Erik; Haithman, Diane (1 February 2019).

While the world wept in August 1997, unwilling to believe that something as prosaic as a car accident could have killed Diana, Princess of Wales, the one man who knew the truth was in a coma in a Paris hospital, with only half a face and no tongue. Apart from the ill-advised interview with the Daily Mirror Rees-Jones never gave Al Fayed what he craved: proof of the alleged engagement, proof of the paparazzi's guilt, let alone confirmation that Diana's last words had embraced his son.Petski, Denise (18 June 2019).

He adds: "That film in two hours 30 minutes, encapsulated what had been then, six years of our life. Absent two elements - I'd never been shot at, when I was with her and I never made love to her. You take those two elements out and it really becomes a boring two and a half hours." Read More Related Articles The first is easy to understand. As Rees-Jones himself admitted, when it comes to emotions, he's "not that kind of bloke". But the second seems unbelievable.
