  Dodi Al-Fayed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Emad El-Din Mohamed Abdel Moneim Fayed ( April 15, 1955 - August 31, 1997) was the son of Mohamed Al-Fayed, owner of the British department store Harrods and the Hôtel Ritz Paris.
Their brief relationship was marked by controversy when another woman, a former model, brought a breach of promise suit, claiming to have been affianced to Fayed and abandoned for Diana.
In the media frenzy following the car crash, there was much speculation about Fayed's character, particularly with respect to his choice of female companions and his motives for involvement with the late Princess of Wales.

 Mohamed Al-Fayed - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
After growing his circles of influence in UAE, Haiti, and London, Fayed established his own shipping company in Egypt, before becoming a financial adviser to one of the world's richest men, the Sultan of Brunei, in 1966.
Al-Fayed's son, the late film producer Dodi was dating Diana, Princess of Wales in her last days, and was killed in the same car crash in Paris in 1997.
He has since made repeated allegations that the deaths were not accidental, but rather the result of a wide-ranging conspiracy involving the Duke of Edinburgh, MI5 and others, which has led to Harrods losing all of its Royal Warrants.

Conflicts would have been inevitable, Dodi was a Muslim, Diana Christian, the Al-Fayed family was not recognised in fine society, she the Princess of Wales.
