An official UK police inquiry into the Paris car crash which killed Princess Diana and Dodi Al Fayed has found no evidence they were murdered.
The Met Police's probe concluded the crash was a "tragic accident".
The inquiry, led by its former chief Lord Stevens said chauffeur Henry Paul, who also died, was speeding and over the legal drink drive limit.
The princess, 36, and Mr Al Fayed, 42, died when their Mercedes crashed in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel in August 1997.
Part of the inquiry's remit has been to investigate the conspiracy theories.
The findings - contained within an 832 page document - form part of the inquest, due to resume next year, into the deaths of the couple.
Lord Stevens told a news conference in London the report addresses the key issues emerging from a "most complex and challenging" investigation.
"There was no conspiracy to murder any of the occupants of that car," Lord Stevens said.
Princess Diana was not engaged or about to get engaged and was not pregnant, he said.
Some 400 people, including Prince Charles, the Duke of Edinburgh and the heads of MI5 and MI6, were interviewed by the inquiry.
Referring to claims by Dodi's father, Mohamed al Fayed, the report said there was no evidence of a connection between the Duke of Edinburgh and MI6.
