During the difficult period of her marriage breakdown and separation, Diana regularly visited Fitzgerald's clinic and valued her friendship. The letter reads in full: "Dearest Chryssie, the world is a sad place without you & you are greatly missed by all those that love you. I hope that some strength is returning & that you're listening to the body! I think of my friend constantly & as always send an enormous amount of love & admiration." Condition: fine, with some smudged ink, fold crease; the envelope with portions of address cut out. Provenance: Private Collection; acquired from Stanley Gibbons, UK, 2008.
