FANS are paying tribute to Princess Diana's memory at a shrine in Paris to mark the 15th anniversary of her death.

Guy Gerald brought wild flowers from his garden and a poem he wrote for Diana, laying them gently among the mementos dotting a makeshift Paris shrine to the late princess.
The 65-year-old was one of a steady trickle of tourists, well-wishers, and die-hard Diana fans who filed past the site, directly above the underpass where the princess was killed in a car crash alongside her companion Dodi al-Fayed.
'Unforgettable Diana', 'A life of love,' 'Fifteen years already', read the little notes taped to the base of a local monument, a replica of the flame of the Statue of Liberty which Diana fans have adopted as an informal memorial.
Ignoring the din of the traffic rushing into the tunnel under the Alma bridge, just north of the River Seine, visitors from Brazil, South Africa or Canada, bent to read the messages set among pictures and papier mache flowers.
As he has done each year since 1997, Mr Gerald made the two-hour journey from Orleans south of Paris to pay his respects - among a busy jostle of radio and television crews.
'Diana is a figure of inspiration for all of us. She brings me comfort and strength,' smiled the metalworker, who planned to spend four to five hours at the shrine.
'Fifteen years already, time has stood still and so has my heart,' reads.
