John Travolta described the memorable experience in detail. "It's midnight," he recalled (via People ). "The stage is like a dream. I approach her, touch her elbow, invite her to dance. She spins around and gives me that captivating smile, just a little sad, and accepts my invitation. And there we were, dancing together as if it were a fairytale."
People also noted that Travolta previously revealed to a Dutch outlet that it was Princess Diana's "wish" to dance with him. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Travolta said that the royal "blushed" when he invited her onto the dance floor, which he found charming. "And I liked that; I thought it was very down to earth," he said.
The blue velvet dress Princess Diana wore during the dance was auctioned off in 2019. The royal's memorable outfit sold for a whopping $347,000 (via CNN Style).
