Technically, yes. Princess Diana was considered a commoner.

This, however, does not tell the whole story about her ancestry. Her father at her birth was a Viscount and became an Earl. Her mother was also a member of the aristocracy. Because of these Diana was a relative of the royal family through her descent of Charles II (who had many illegitimate children).

Why was Diana princess but not Kate Middleton?

Because Charles was first in line to throne and therefore Prince of Wales when he married Diana. She then became The Princess of Wales upon marriage. William is second in line to the throne and not The Prince of Wales (yet). He was created the Duke of Cambridge upon his wedding day and so Kate became The Duchess of Cambridge. She is however also "Princess William" just as a married woman can be Mrs John Smith. When Charles is King, William will become Prince of Wales and Kate Princess of Wales.

Why Princess Diana was princess?

She was a Princess because she married Prince Charles and she was of Royal blood. She was a Lady. That's the best answer this American can give off me head. Any Brits know better? Diana was not of royal blood, although she came from a titled family. She was technically a commoner (an irrelevant matter in any case); on marrying a prince a woman is given the title of Princess. Similarly, Kate Middleton is now known as Princess Catherine, as well as her title of Duchess of Cambridge.
