Dr.Hasnat Ahmed Khan

Hasnat Ahmad Khan, PhD, FRCS, (born 1 April 1959) is a British Pakistani heart and lung surgeon. He has previously worked at various hospitals in Sydney and London. In 2007, he was reported to be planning to return to Pakistan to accept a post at a hospital in Lahore.^[1][2] Khan is known to have been doing a lot of charity work in Africa and Asia, and it is reported that all of his recent surgeries have been for charity.

Relationship with Diana, Princess of Wales

Khan has been widely identified as an "ex-lover"and "boyfriend" of Diana, Princess of Wales. Their relationship began in 1995 after they met at the Royal Brompton Hospital where she was visiting a friend recovering from heart surgery. In May 1996, Princess Diana visited Khan family in Lahore. It was ended by Princess Diana in June 1997, according to Paul Burrell, Diana's butler.

In March 2008, Khan said in a written statement to Lord Justice Scott Baker's inquest into Diana's death that their relationship had begun in the late summer of 1995, and that although they had talked about getting married, he believed that he would find the inevitable media attention "hell". He also said that he believed that the car crash which caused Diana's death was a "tragic accident". The heart surgeon told the police in 2004 that he doubted she had been pregnant when she died because she always took her contraceptive pills.

Diana's friends are reported to have described Khan as the 'love of her life' and to have spoken of her distress when he ended their relationship. He, however, is said to be reticent about speaking of how much he may have meant to her or even how much she meant to him. Many of Diana's friends believe she was using Dodi Fayed in order to make Hasnat jealous and win him back. Khan attendedthe funeral ceremony of Princess Diana.

Marriage

Khan, whom Diana had famously described as "Mr Wonderful", married 28-year-old Hadia Sher Ali in Pakistan in May 2006.Ali is a Pakistani descendant from former Afghan royalty

In July 2008, Khan and Ali filed an application for divorce in the local arbitration council of Islamabad. Kamran Cheema, the chairman of the council, heard their case and decided to issue the divorce certificate. Sources say there were "multiple reasons" for their separation.
