Farah Diba Pahlavi
a life in exile

On the occasion of Her Imperial Majesty Farah Diba Pahlavi’s 80th birthday in 2018 and the 40th anniversary of the Iranian Revolution in 2019 we are featuring an interview with the Empress in exile held at her Parisian home in 1999.
Since then she has had to mourn the loss of two of her four children with the deceased Shah who both committed suicide: her younger daughter, Princess Leila, took an overdose of pills in a London hotel suite in 2001 and her youngest son, Prince Ali Reza, shot himself in Boston in 2011.
