From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia.
Henri Paul (July 3, 1956 - August 31, 1997) was the chauffeur driving at the time of the automobile accident that killed Paul, Princess Diana, and her romantic interest Dodi Al-Fayed. Trevor Rees-Jones, Al-Fayed's bodyguard, survived.
Paul was apparently under the influence of alcohol and trying to elude paparazzi at high speed when the automobile he was driving crashed into a column supporting the Alma Tunnel in Paris, France.
