Princess Diana vs. Ondine de Rothschild; are they one and the same?

June 25, 2019

This constitutes my short research into that question. My effort was inspired by the research already
done and posted via pinned tweet by ZRanchLady. My intent is purely to delve further to satisfy my
own curiosity. My intent is NOT in any way to make a judgmental statement on ZRanchLady's
research or to upstage her work. In fact, what follows is presented in the context of her research.
Essentially, I picked up some sticks that I believed were still strewn about.

Here are highlights of what I found:

Ondine de Rothschild and Ariane Dandois were apparently last photographed again together, in 2018,
allegedly.

Ariane Dandois appears oldest here than in other pictures, and Ondine appears to have graying hair, but
still looks young, certainly not 57. Diana would be turning 58 next Monday. Sure, plastic/cosmetic
surgery can work wonders; but either way, both Ondine de Rothschild and Ariane de Rothschild
apparently co-exist, at least up until 2018. It appears they are not one and the same person.
Nevertheless, the clincher that persuades me to believe (not conclude, barring stronger evidence) that
Diana may well be alive is the photos showing an aged Dodi al-Fayed, provided they are not the result
of sophisticated photo-editing technology. That he is photographed standing with Ondine is definitely a
mind-bender.

As for Ariane de Rothschild's videoed mannerisms, voice pattern, and speech pauses, they do seem to
occasionally mimic Diana's, and a non-accented word does slip in every so often. So far, however, I
haven't heard/seen Ondine online to compare.

I noticed that Ondine's mole on her left cheek near her mouth is higher up her face than is Diana's,
which is closer to the smile-crease with the nose. Ariane de Rothschild, however, has her mole right
where Diana's is/was. Ariane does hide it well; it shows up with only certain mouth movements.

I thought to see about comparing her ear with Diana’s. From my vantage point, they are NOT a match.

It's intriguing that nothing seems to be found online of Ondine's life prior to ~ 2000, to include the
absence of a dedicated Wikipedia page (not that I bank my life on Wikipedia!), while Ariane de
Rothschild has a lengthy CV there. Interestingly, however, I did not find any specific biographical
information on Ariane de Rothschild (Ariane Langner) predating ~ 2000 either. As with Ondine, she,
too, seems to have appeared on the earth suddenly around then, in spite of 'claims' of birth in San
Salvador, etc., etc. ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariane_de_Rothschild ) Of note is a 2011 “Abel
Danger” blog page that didn’t have much in the way of kind words to say about Ariane de Rothschild.
Hmmmm …. ( https://abeldanger.blogspot.com/2011/04/rothschild-family-fortune-bombardier.html )

Meanwhile, there is a photo online of Ariane Dandois seemingly much younger than Frances Kydd
would have appeared after any plastic/cosmetic surgery around the time of her disappearance.
Nevertheless, I could find nothing on Ariane Dandois other than anecdotal accounts of her globe-
trotting exploits and a gallery in France since 1974. Even a book showcased on January 1st, 1998 on
Amazon having as the author “Ariane Dandois Et Al” has no defining details (“Ariane Dandois: 25
ans”) (“ans” = “years”), and displays only a generic book cover.
( https://www.amazon.com/Ariane-Dandois-25-Ans/dp/B003X5Z7OI )

Then another Amazon page shows a 1998 book, “Arane Dandois 1973-1998” (typo included)
( https://www.amazon.com/Arane-Dandois-1973-1998-Ariane/dp/B001GTNYT8 )

Call me suspicious, but 25 years is a long time to … NOT … have already come up with a book on art-
collecting and global travel.

All this to say, while it does appear that further clues (as presented at https://twitter.com/ZRanchLady/
status/1125456370122219520 ) exist beyond the scope of this short research which might support the
conclusion that either Ariane de Rothschild or Ondine de Rothschild is actually Diana, in my mind,
only the 1,000-word picture of Dodi al-Fayed with Ondine de Rothschild bears any weight toward my
believing only that Diana is alive, having probably assumed a new identity; but again, that’s IF that
picture of Dodi al-Fayed is genuine and unaltered.

Lastly, several of the older pictures of Ondine show her looking more like Diana than the more recent
ones do. Getty Images - https://www.gettyimages.com/photos/ariane-dandois?
