Britain's late Princess Diana was a great cook before she married Prince Charles, her brother has revealed.

Earl Spencer - who famously gave a moving speech at his sister's funeral in 1997 - says Diana was quite a star in the kitchen during her teenage years.

He said, "She didn't do much cooking after marriage but she was very good. Her triumph as a teenager was her meatloaf."

Diana, who admitted to suffering from bulimia, was formally divorced from Charles in July 1996.

Meanwhile, the selection of the jury for the inquest into Diana's death begins today.

Up to 200 potential jurors have been summoned to London's Royal Courts of Justice to be asked questions by the coroner to determine whether they have any prejudices or connections which could rule them out of the case.

The inquest starts next Tuesday and could last up to six months. Diana was killed in a Paris car crash in August 1997 along with lover Dodi Fayed and chauffeur Henri Paul.

Many, including Dodi's father, Mohamed Al Fayed, claim they were murdered by the British establishment in a plot engineered by Charles' father Prince Philip.

The original report into the crash by Lord Stephens ruled the crashed was caused by Paul being drunk and driving too fast.
