Princess Diana
He was commissioned between 1992 and 1993 to help Princess Diana to develop her public speaking voice, having been introduced to her by her personal fitness instructor, Carolan Brown. Settelen video taped Diana talking about her private life. Following her death, the tapes were seized by the Metropolitan Police in a 2001 raid on the home of the Princess' butler, Paul Burrell. Ownership of the tapes was contested by her brother, Earl Spencer, but they were returned to Settelen in 2004. Extracts from the tapes were screened by American broadcaster NBC later the same year, in a programme called Diana Revealed. In August 2017, extracts from the tapes were screened by Channel 4 television.
