Mr. Francis Borge c/o The Convent Main Street GIBRALTAR Date: 15th of May 2002 Concerns: 'LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES' Ref.: JH/FB20020515 Torremolinos, Wednesday 15th of May 2002
Dear Mr. Borge, This way I would like to express my sincere gratefulness for the hospitality that you offered me yesterday afternoon in the Governor's Palace in Gibraltar. The here above depicted photograph dates from the 9th of March 1999. As you see I still wore on that ocasion my sweatshirt from Earls Court Gym in London, where also 'My Lady' was a regular guest at the time that We were setting up Our Company in Great Britain and The Netherlands.
Also this photograph dates from the 9th of March 1999. I told these gentlemen my 'True Story' at the time, that apparently still no one believes around the world. But I think it is the Only Legal Truth about Diana. I was surprised by the photographs you showed me, specificly the one taken on the 21st of April 1997 when She received the white roses with the new name "The Princess of Wales". As you can read in my book I found myself in Kensington on that very day: One day before the fifth anniversary of my divorce from my former wife and three days after I had authorized Her to take over my duties in The United Kingdom until the 28 of September 1997. Of course I was very shocked to see again the image of the Mercedes in which She was kidnapped in the night of the 31st of August 1997. Therefore I visited your 'Convent' for the last time on last 31st of August. As you see I carry the coat of arms of KENSINGTON PALACE in the heading of my letters. On the 18th of August 1997 I brought my Certificate of Incorporation personally to KENSINGTON PALACE and after the fatal kidnapping in Paris I had no other choice than to take over her responsibilities at KP.
Until now I have not had the occasion to discuss the situation personally at 'KP' in London. You are the first British official that I spoke regarding this responsibility. As a matter of fact I needed the time to recover from the shock. As I told you now I have to do everything alone as a Dutchman, while Diana posessed all the expertise that We needed in The United Kingdom. That is the main reason that I have not been able to start up the Limited Company Instituto Cervantes England and Wales yet. And this still has to be done. I hope that everyone concerned will take up their responsibilities concerning our Business Plan as from now and forever more. I appreciate your invitation to come back to Gibraltar during a couple of days. I think you can teach me a lot about the history. You told me about the time that Sir Richard Lewis was the Governor of Gibraltar. Personally I only know one gentleman with the name Richard Lewis. He was the founder of the language institute LINGUARAMA UNITED KINGDOM. He took over my French-Spanish Institute in 1981, that became LINGUARAMA NEDERLAND afterwards. I also thank you that you passed my information to the aid of the Governor. It will solve a lot of problems that are still 'pending'. Herewith you find the information about my book that is also published by Trafford Publishing in Canada on the internet. The news release considering the publication of the book sounded as follows: News Release LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES tells of one man's quest for peace of mind
LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES
by John L. Van der Heyden ISBN 1-55212-939-X
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
CONTACT: phone the author via Trafford Publishing at 1-888-232-4444
On August 14, 1996, the Dutch author of LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES, John L. Van der Heyden, decided to start a Dutch-English family company, 'Van der Heyden/Spencer', aiming to begin operations two weeks later on the day of Princess Diana's divorce - 28 August 1996. From that day onwards Van der Heyden became Her personal advisor. He proposed marriage to Diana on 28 December 1996, aiming for a 28 September 1997 marriage date - four weeks to the day of Diana's unfortunate kidnapping and death in Paris.
"The most important point in this book is the fact that I invited Diana to become my wife and to start together a new worldwide organization with the name 'Cervantes' as a logical consequence of Her 'Quixotic Quest'," says Van der Heyden. "In my vision, Diana was kidnapped on the night of 31 August 1997, and this book will reveal the final outcome of the problem that rose after Diana's fatal accident in Paris."
Van der Heyden continues: "I wrote the book in the first place to let the world know what the real truth was about Diana in my vision. LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES also reveals how the British Monarchy was saved by my intervention in April of 1997, although what transpired there could fill another book."
Van der Heyden reveals he wrote this diary-like book for personal reasons as well. "I gained some peace of mind. I consider the writing of the book as a finalization of the most difficult period in my life in which I felt the heavy load of a worldwide responsibility on my shoulders and hope that many people are willing to collaborate to reach our objectives as described in the book.
"The book describes my strategy to build the new Cervantes Organization," says Van der Heyden. "It deals with the problems that arose in the 16th Century in Spain, The Netherlands and England. It deals with the ideas of humanists such as Erasmus, Cervantes, Heydanus and Thomas More, and the book's main theme is 'Building Bridges'. I want readers to join my organization - the framework is already there." Van der Heyden details the diary-like quality of the book: "It can be called 'The Prince's Diary' or 'Purple Prince.' It is unique because all the letters, save for the last one, must have been read by the Late Princess of Wales and have guided her New Life. This can be confirmed by BUCKINGHAM PALACE and other Royal Palaces in the European Union."
LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES started as a type of Government Game, called The Dragon Vision Wizard of Oz. Within this framework Van der Heyden is, as he puts it, "the spider in the WorldWideWeb," and he is specifically interested in the stories of the other participants in the Game and in receiving their feedback.

Author John L. Van der Heyden writes: "On the 14th of August 1996 I decided to start a Dutch-English family company 'Van der Heyden/Spencer' as from the day of Princess Diana's divorce - 28 August 1996 - under the name 'Instituto Cervantes'. As from that day I became Her personal advisor. I proposed a marriage to Her on 28 December 1996, starting on 28 September 1997. She was kidnapped in Paris exactly four weeks before."
About the Book
In April of 1992 John L. Van der Heyden registered a trademark for courses, trainings and education at the Benelux Trade Registrar in The Hague with the name Instituto Cervantes and founded the Foundation Cervantes Benelux. Four years later, on the 31st of July he invited the Crown Princes of The Netherlands, Belgium, Luxemburg and Spain to become the government of the foundation. The next day -- the first of August -- Van der Heyden went to England and lighted a candle at Canterbury Cathedral.
From that time it became clear to him that Princess Diana was also interested in his project. How things developed from that time is explained in LETTERS TO DIANA, PRINCESS OF WALES. The story ends with the fatal kidnapping in Paris, exactly four weeks before Diana and Van der Heyden's proposed wedding day in The Netherlands.
John L. Van der Heyden was born in Nijmegen in The Netherlands, shortly after the Second World War. After having finished his secondary education and the teacher's training college he became a teacher of primary education and studied Spanish Language and Literature. From 1979 until 1987 he was a company director of a well-known language institute in The Netherlands. In February 1986 he decided during Expolangues in Paris to start a new company with the basic idea to create a better understanding between Dutch-, English-, and Spanish-speaking people. Therefore he took a course in general management at the Management Institute of the Dutch Employers' Organization 'de Baak' in Noordwijk where he also was a member of the Board until summer 1991. As from that time he planned the new company 'Instituto Cervantes' and advised the Secretaries of State of the Dutch Government in several letters. Therefore the Dutch Government was called 'Purple' because of the house colour of the Instituto Cervantes Benelux. This was also expressed in a British newspaper in the final line of a limerick in the summer of 1997 with the text 'And now their faces are Purple as Heather'. After Princess Diana's awful death in Paris he retired in Spain but still hopes that his Dream will come true by the publishing of this book.
