He even spoke with Diana on the phone, saying: “I just remember her being incredibly sweet on the phone, and she asked the question: ‘Are we going to have, like a kissing scene?’ She said it in a very respectful way. “I said: ‘Yeah,'” the star continued in an interview with People magazine. “‘There” going to be a little bit of [kissing], but we can make that okay too.'” However, Diana eventually concluded her life had enough drama, saying: “Look, my life is maybe going to become my own at some point.
