Artist biography Mills was born in Walthamstow in 1907 to James and Hannah Mills. His father was a Brixton-born carpenter and joiner and he was the fourth of five surviving children. Mills studied at Leyton Art School, the Central School of Arts and Crafts, London, and in 1927–1929 at the Camberwell School of Art. He first worked in London, before and after the Second World War, as a commercial artist and art teacher. His output included travel, industrial, and safety posters, some in an attractively bold, modern style.
Soon after the war, Mills turned to portraiture in oils, mainly working from photographs. These were set up by Godfrey Hayman, who mounted their first portraits exhibition for the Festival of Britain in 1951, the advertised as a ‘Portrait painter-photographer’ in the Tatler in 1961, and as late as 1975 in Country Life. By 1956, when the first of their two sons was born, Mills and his wife were living at 99 London Road, Burgess Hill, Sussex. Their second son was born in 1961. By 1980 they had moved locally to a flat over a shop (49a Station Road), though ‘Art’ after Mills’s name in the 1984 telephone directory. He died on 16th May 1996 and was buried, at Ocklynge Cemetery, Eastbourne. His widow subsequently remained at Station Road and died in 2019.
Biography of Diana, Princess of Wales (born Diana Frances Spencer 1 July 1961 – 31 August 1997), was a member of the British royal family. She was the first wife of Charles, Prince of Wales—the heir apparent to the British throne—and mother of Princes William and Harry. Diana's activism and glamour made her an international icon and earned her enduring popularity as well as unprecedented public scrutiny, exacerbated by her tumultuous private life.
Diana was born into the British nobility and grew up close to the royal family on their Sandringham estate. In 1981, while working as a nursery teacher's assistant, she became engaged to Prince Charles, the eldest son of Queen Elizabeth II. Their wedding took place at St Paul's Cathedral in 1981 and made her Princess of Wales, a role in which she was enthusiastically received by the public. They had two sons, William and Harry, who were then second and third in the line of succession to the British throne. Diana's marriage to Charles suffered due to their incompatibility and extramarital affairs. They separated in 1992, soon after the breakdown of their relationship became public knowledge. Their marital difficulties became increasingly publicised, and they divorced in 1996.
As Princess of Wales, Diana undertook royal duties on behalf of the Queen and represented her at functions across the Commonwealth realms. She was celebrated in the media for her unconventional approach to charity work. Her patronages initially centred on children and the elderly but she later became known for her involvement in two particular campaigns, that involving the social attitudes towards and the acceptance of AIDS patients, and the campaign promoted through the International Red Cross for the removal of landmines.
She also raised awareness and advocated for ways to help people affected with cancer and mental illness. Diana was initially noted for her shyness, but her charisma and friendliness endeared her to the public and helped her reputation survive the acrimonious collapse of her marriage. Considered photogenic, she was a leader of fashion in the 1980s and 1990s. Diana's death in a car crash in Paris led to extensive public mourning and global media attention. An inquest by the Metropolitan Police returned a verdict of "unlawful killing". Her legacy has had a deep impact on the royal family and British society.
