Fayed had acquired the Windsors French home, and media reports at the time of the accident that killed him and Princess Diana alleged they had plans to marry and live in the home which might have been a symbolic affront to the House of Windsor.
Profits from the sale of the contents of the home which range from furniture and personal effects to a 60-year-old piece of cake from the Windsors wedding will go to the Dodi Fayed International Charitable Foundation, which will support causes backed by Di and Dodi during their lifetimes.
