Was michal Jackson at Princess Dianas funeral?

As far as I know, no. Certainly he played no part in any official mourning, a task that eventually fell to Elton John. The song Goodbye England's Rose, is essentially a parody on Elton"s song Goodbye Norma Jean, about Marilyn Monroe and the lyrics were skillfully revised. An interesting fact is I do not think that Princess Diana was ever referred to as England"s Rose. a well known, her birthday is the fourth of July, Italian actress, is, however styled the Rose Of Fair Italy, this title being borrowed from lyrics in the song Santa Lucia.
