“Tom Selleck Saves Princess Diana from John Travolta Dating Rumors with Iconic Dance Move”

Tom Selleck has just released his memoir, You Never Know, which chronicles his rise to fame, notably through his iconic role in Magnum P.I. The book delves into many personal anecdotes from his swift ascent in the 1980s.

One memorable story from 1985 details a special evening when Princess Diana, along with Selleck, Clint Eastwood, and John Travolta, attended a state dinner in their honor, hosted by then-President Ronald Reagan at the White House.

As he recounts the evening, Selleck admits feeling “anxious” about meeting the Royal family but praises their kindness and grace. He writes, “Prince Charles had a way of making you feel important in your moment together.”

The night unfolded with President Reagan and Princess Diana taking the floor first, followed by Charles and Nancy Reagan. When John Travolta and Princess Diana began to dance, a woman quickly approached Selleck and Eastwood, requesting that one of them step in to help dispel any rumors of a romantic connection between Diana and the Saturday Night Fever star.
