'The Crown' Revives Interest in Dodi Fayed's Alleged Engagement to Kelly Fisher

Fisher Claims Fayed Proposed Before Leaving Her for Princess Diana, Prompting a Lawsuit That Was Later Dropped Following Their Tragic Deaths

Dodi Fayed was reportedly engaged to American model Kelly Fisher before he began dating Princess Diana, as depicted in the sixth season of 'The Crown'.
Fisher claims that Fayed proposed to her with a sapphire and diamond engagement ring and they were set to wed on August 9, 1997, but Fayed fell in love with Princess Diana a month before the planned wedding.
Fisher sued Fayed for breach of contract and emotional distress after seeing photos of him and Diana together, but dropped the lawsuit following Fayed and Diana's fatal car crash.
Fisher, now Kelly Movshina, lives a quiet life in South Carolina with her husband, a Russian pilot she met in the Central African Republic, and their daughter.
Fayed's father, Mohamed al-Fayed, denied Fisher's claims of a serious relationship with his son and referred to her as a 'hooker and a gold digger' during a 2008 inquest into Diana and Dodi's deaths.
