Elton John Princess Diana

Sir Elton John has told in an emotional TV interview how his pal Princess Diana was “airy fairy” with her true friends.

Elton, 61 – who became so choked with grief he halted filming – said: “I think in the end she trusted the wrong people. The people that really felt for her, and really were true to her, she just was a bit airy fairy towards in the end.”

Elton recalled how he struggled to keep his composure as he performed Candle In The Wind at Di’s funeral.

He said: “It was one of the most surreal things I have ever done. What was going through my mind was, ‘Don’t f*** this up. Be stoic. Don’t break down’.”

The star was played footage of the moment by producers of US show RocDoc: Me, Myself and I. Unable to go on, he pleaded to cameramen: “Can you stop? Thanks.”
