Paul, who drove the car into a pillar, was found to be at fault in the crash with a blood-alcohol level higher than France’s legal limit. Intrusive paparazzi also shouldered some blame, an inquiry by Britain and France ruled in 2008.

Rees-Jones suffered serious head and chest injuries, and also broke many bones in his face.

He was sedated for nearly two weeks after the accident but eventually recovered. Because of his brain injuries, his memory of the crash is limited.

The bodyguard told the 2008 inquest that he almost didn’t make it into the car that crashed.

“Initially I had been told that Dodi and Diana would travel without security and I said this would not happen, that I would travel in the vehicle with them.,” he said, according to Express UK.
