Elton John Says Princess Dianna Would Like Kate Middleton

Sir Elton John has claimed that Princess Diana would be happy about the upcoming marriage of  her son Prince William to Kate Middleton.

The singer who is attending the royal wedding this Friday claimed that Dianna would be pleased with Will and Kate's relationship:

"I think it's the most joyous result and I'm sure Diana would be very, very happy about it... I think that she would be very happy with his choice. [Kate] seems such a great girl, and they seem so much in love."

Meanwhile Elton admitted that going back to Westminister Abbey will be hard since the last time he was there was for Dianna's funeral nearly 14 years ago. The singer admitted that the ceremony was extremely hard for everyone:

"The last time we were in Westminster Abbey, my heart sank when I saw those two young boys (Princes William and Harry) walking behind the coffin. I thought that was the hardest thing - I can't imagine at that young age having to walk in public, following your mother's coffin. And the next time we're in the Abbey, it's to see [William] walking up the aisle with a beautiful woman and the love of his life."

Elton and Diana were close friends

Although Elton seems happy about the upcoming wedding he added that the couple need to be cautious about all the media attention they are getting:

"Enjoy it while you can because the press are going to give you a bumpy ride. They are going to love you. They are going to hate you. I just hope they love each other enough to stay away from all that. There's one thing in the world if I could get rid of, it's that negativity of the British press - that hatefulness, that horrible nastiness that we have... Yeah [the wedding] is a fairytale thing and people criticise it and say we're making too much of it. But it's about love, and in this day and age anything that's about love and positivity is a welcome relief from what's going on in the world."
