«Breaking News» 'Octomum' Mandy Allwood reveals how Princess Diana helped her cope after miscarriage

A woman who lost all eight of her babies at 24 weeks has said that Princess Diana helped her cope in her darkest moments by meeting for lunch and giving her a 'hug'.

Mandy Allwood, now 53, became world famous when she announced she was expecting octuplets in 1996.

But the six boys and two girls, who were born over three days and three nights, did not survive.

Mandy Allwood (pictured left with ex-partner Paul Hudson) has said Princess Diana helped her cope with depression after the loss of her eight babies in 1996

Mrs Allwood said Princess Diana comforted her and they spoke about depression and panic attacks while having lunch at London hotels like the Ritz and the Dorchester

Today marks the 22nd anniversary of Kypros, Adam, Martyn, Cassius, Nelson, Donald, Kitali and Layne's deaths and their grieving mother has revealed it was Princess Diana who reached out to her and helped her cope, reports the Daily Star.

Mrs Allwood said Diana would meet her at fancy hotels such as the Ritz and the Dorchester in London where they would chat about their struggles with depression.

She said: 'She gave me a hug, showed me lots of support.

'When we first met she said to me 'thank you for keeping me off the front pages for a change'.

'We talked about her depression and my panic attacks and she told me she had been there too. We spoke about her family and she talked a lot about Charles and Camilla.' 

The mum of four said Diana got in touch just five weeks after the miscarriage by sending a lunch invitation in the post.

The two meetings were in October 1996 and again in November. Mrs Allwood never spoke to Diana again as she tragically died less than a year after their final meeting

Mrs Allwood said the meetings were very private and she wasn't allowed to take any pictures

They met twice - once in October 1996 and again in November. Diana died the following year in August 1997.

The meetings were very private and Mrs Allwood was not allowed to take any pictures or exchange phone numbers with the Princess.

Mrs Allwood became famous after her story was featured in newspapers around the world when she first revealed she was going to be an 'Octomum'.

She appeared on the Oprah Winfrey show and even received a personal message of support from Princess Diana.

Before the tragedy, Mrs Allwood already had a son, Charlie, from her failed marriage.

But after longing for children with new partner Paul Hudson – from whom she has since separated - and suffering repeated miscarriages, she took fertility drugs. 

In the aftermath of the tragedy, she struggled to come to terms with her devastating loss and spiralled into a haze of depression, suicide attempts and alcohol addiction.

She hit a low in 2008, when she would drink wine from the minute she woke up, even ordering a taxi to take her to buy more after she lost her driving licence.

Today marks the 22nd anniversary of the babies deaths and Mrs Allwood will lay flowers for them at West Norwood Cemetery in south London. Pictured is their funeral procession 

She was even given an ASBO after she repeatedly played Sinead O'Connor's Nothing Compares to You on full volume, 'deafening' her neighbours. 

Today, on the 22nd anniversary of her babies deaths, Mrs Allwood will lay flowers for them at West Norwood Cemetery, south London.

She said: 'You will never forget your little boy or girl but you can't change it. You will always have those memories and you will come through it.'

But the six boys ...

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
