Diana looks very much like her mother who was a world-class beauty in her time. Look at some of the pictures taken of her when she was in her 20s. They were in that "Hollywood Beauty" style and she looks like a movie star.

[@VicRector]

she is so a hart

[@jbelton1989]

She sounds like Bret when she talks

[@310thesamson]

All the Hart siblings sound like Stew.

[@buuzzsawtouchedme194]

+William Walker, I know what you mean, her voice is way to similar to the Men in her family. The tone of voice, the accent, the tempo of her voice, even the vocabulary is similar. I don't meant to sound mean, but if she had neck surgery, her voice would sound just like Bret's.

[@jonathancrosby7665]

It's Stu

[@keithogburn3690]

Diana is fine

[@ethanb498]

Wow. She still looks great.

[@Bazzeboy]

She single-handedly destroyed all of The Hart Family legacy. A lot of issues with the woman, a lot of them. Which everybody in the family knows…

[@alexpolanco7885]

@@Bazzeboy Cry pal.

[@buuzzsawtouchedme194]

Her voice is so similar to Bret's. To be more specific, her accent, the tone of voice, the speed of her voice etc (obviously she doesn't have a mans voice), but basically if Bret's voice was more higher pitched he would sound like his sister in this interview.

[@d_ruggs]

Thats a mud western Canadian accent. Similar to a Midwest American accent

[@N1120A]

​@@d_ruggs nothing similar aboot a Canadian accent to a Midwestern US accent.

[@hatednyc]

Wow she looks great! Still absolutely gorgeous.

[@babydoll1701]

I always thought she was the prettier sister. She aged very well!

[@owenpeterson]

Davey Boy is certainly not without his faults. But then again, SEVERAL wrestlers past and present have their drawbacks. Some more than others, Overall I'd say that Davey Boy certainly has a lot more good in him than bad. There are far worse than he could ever be. IE: Shawn Michaels, Kevin Nash, Hulk Hogan, New Jack, Scott Steiner, Vince Russo. etc.

[@RK-zf1jm]

He wasnt a saint for sure he had pill addictions he fucked around on his wife but that doesnt mean he wasnt a great dad, Gotta remember faults or not Davey was his dad he idolized his father and was Jake said was pure bullshit

[@owenpeterson]

@@RK-zf1jm Not to mention that Jake HIMSELF is no saint. Jake has done a number of terrible things throughout his life. Have fans forgotten that?

[@trebillis7399]

Pretty much everyone you list is a better human that Davey Boy was.

[@georgebenning1720]

Harry Smith Was Defending His Father's Name

[@zakrowe1301]

George Benning throwing Luke warm coffee in the face of a 79 somthing year old man then running off is an excellent way to defend your fathers name

[@RocaDeearCenjar]

Jake isn’t that old.

[@sese6227]

George Benning Well he failed miserably.

He’s 62.

[@stewartmcrae8007]

When she says they worked it out I would swear that it was Bret if I couldn't see the video of her talking

[@26hypnotica]

Anyone that has had any experience of meeting Harry (DBSJR) or interacted with him via social media will see that he is a lovely respectful young man that has a lot of time for his fans and people. Jake is a legend in wrestling and I respect that and his work fully but he has got a reputation of rubbing people up the wrong way and he clearly should have thought about the feelings of the children of the British Bulldog when making his comments. There are ways and means of saying you don't agree or like what someone has done is what this most likely boils down to here.

[@watchmeburn6807]

26hypnotica I agree but it was on a podcast, it was a heat of the moment sort of thing. DHS could've talked with Jake about it and they could've settled it peacefully but Harry decided to throw a cup of hot coffee in Jake's face. What a good way to look like the lesser man.

[@MoniqueFromPlymouth]

@@watchmeburn6807 I believe Harry looked back on this incident, regretted what he had done, and would have talked to Jake in a civil manner if he had to do it all over again. Now anyone has to be wary whenever he holds a cup of coffee in his hands...

[@jasonbergman9018]

Meh. Jake is a public figure, who was interviewed in relation to another public figure. Problem is their kid is also a public figure. Lots of wrestlers tell shameful stories about others. The issue here isn't that Jake said something insensitive to Davey's kids. Yes that's an issue but it happens in every shoot interview. The issue is that unlike most wrestlers' family members, Davey's kid A) could possibly be scheduled to appear at the same place with Jake because they're in the same industry and B) is known for being a hot headed alpha male (like many young men who grew up without their father are - yeah he knew his dad but I wonder if he had anyone constant in his life after he died to look up to during his teenage years, as that's when most boys need their dad the most). I'm not saying Jake shouldn't have said anything, just that he should have been careful what he said if he wanted to avoid conflict. Then again that man has been through so much shit I don't think coffee in the face was gonna be the death of him, but if Harry was a more wild than he is (seems he has a good heart, he just likes to fight, especially for his family's honor - when he was hitting Bret's attacker at the HOF you could tell pounding on assholes is something he takes pride in) it could have turned into something worse. So yeah Jake wasnt wrong to talk, but he upset someone younger and meaner and tougher that he ran into. Talk crap about Dynamite Kid or Warrior or whatever and its cool. For one, those guys are a little more universally disliked, so it's next to impossible to defend or justify them. But also there isn't an up and comer calling himself Ultimate Warrior Jr because he worships his dad and/or is using his name for his own leverage to get better bookings, money, and fan support. It's kinda like why Chris Benoit's son will have a hard time getting work from any promoter who isn't so desperate for attention that they have to resort to shock factor. It's why "Snuka" was dropped from Tamina's ring name. If some real shitty stories about Davey Boy start coming out just because some guy holds a grudge from 30 years ago and he's telling it now for the attention, that does damage to Davey's legacy as well as Harry's brand. When discussing the likes of Davey, Dusty, Meng (who isn't dead and could probably still win his own fight against almost anyone in the industry), an Anoa'i family member, etc, you better be careful what you say, because you're likely to run into their kids one day, and in all those cases they're extremely prideful and protective of their family and also pretty damn tough. Even Cody, he doesn't look intimidating or have stories like the other names to back up how badass he is, but he's a collegiate wrestler, right? He's classy and professional enough these days he'd probably just roast them on Twitter while further praising Dusty, but I don't know if Dustin has as much self control to keep his public image squeaky clean and not lay someone out at a comic con. And again I don't think Dustin is particularly known as a tough guy either but if he wanted to hurt a broken down old man like Jake Roberts I don't think it would take much. Hell, Dustin is old school enough I would still pick him in a real fight over most of the current AEW roster (aside from Hager of course, and whatever other wrestlers they have over 200 pounds with a background in contact sports).

[@misterslats]

There's still a warrant for Harry's arrest in Louisiana as of a few days ago.

[@jolly7041]

misterslats ya...Harry still has to turn himself in..but the charges will be dropped when Jake contacts the District Attorney's office and says that he'll won't press charges...and Harry will be let go...from what I heard on the news.

[@MrSkullHead1250]

She sounds exactly like Brett, except in a womans voice. Even down to the uhhhhh's, the tone, the accent. If I didn't already know that was Brett's sister, I could take a good guess just by her voice.

[@trebillis7399]

Jake is not he only one who has said bad things about Davey and Dynamite. Heck, Dynamites own family blasted him for his actions. Both have been blasted by many people. Too bad if the truth hurts Harry, but it is the truth. Honestly there is a reason why his dad died at such a young age. He had no business attacking Jake.

[@AndrewNewZealand]

Well it sounds like all this is between Jake and Harry. Harry was disappointed that Jake talked that way about Davey, because Jake was Harry's friend or he liked and respected Jake.

[@PhantomDreamer_]

Why did she correct herself? If Davey Boy and Dynamite Kid were cousins, Dynamite Kid is Harry's cousin too. "Uncle"?

[@ivanthecheese9119]

She is a great looking woman....but you gotta say she has the Hart voice, The voice of Stu.....

[@sexcellent75]

I do recall the podcast with Jake and Roddy Piper before Roddy passed. They were only talking about the ribs and Jake ribbing them back by feeding Matilda some laxatives. It seemed harmless and nowhere near as bad as the stories that other wrestlers told about the bulldogs. I think that Harry must've been told a one sided story or something like that. I'm just glad that they put it all behind them and made things right.

[@darrenbolger86]

She comes across as a lovely woman.

[@kaizenmckenzie4782]

For people that don't know Jake said something on his podcast Harry Smith found out and threw warm coffee in his face that's it

[@trebillis7399]

Truth hurts. Both were not good guys. Jake is not the first to say that.

[@ToonandBBfan]

All Jake did was tell the truth......

[@mr.c4p]

what was the incident?

[@ECW5320]

Harry threw coffee in his face because of a something Jake said about the things Bulldog did to him when they worked together; he said this years ago on Piper's podcast.

All of the Hart men as they get older start to sound more like Stu. Before his death Smith sounded just like him. Bruce pretty much sounds like him, as does Keith. Bret's getting really close. I Wonder if eventually the Hart women will start to sound like Stu too

[@barrettokarate]

Natalie Neidhart's mother sometimes makes an appearance on her and her sister's KZbin channel. Now I'm going to have to go back and listen to her voice. Even Neidhart has a bit of a deepish voice come to think of it. Though she doesn't (or no longer) has a Canadian accent.

[@gerardkowalski7683]

If diana only knew what really happened on the road with Dynamite and Davey. But i m sure the families were never really in on much unless they got wind of something by someone else. When i heard the story about dynamite drugging that ring boys drink and Davey was an accomplice to that. I don't think Diana would take kindly to that . Knowing the Family values the harts pride themselves on.

[@willis26311]

Harry needs to take interpersonal communication, speech and acting classes at a college level to gain charisma. He totally lacks charisma and communication skills. Otherwise, he's a fine wrestling talent. I'm sorry, but he just looks dumb and disoriented. His father had charisma and fantastic wrestling skills, even though he couldn't talk well.

[@cutekanjii]

So what, it's true what jake said about Davy mixing things so he could stand back abd watch the action. He and dynamite used to drug people's drinks for a laugh, that's a real s u my thing to do abd I don't care who's father it was, if they did it ... They did it!... If my own father did things like that I'd call him an arsehole for it too and if he changed his ways when he fit older fine but it still wouldn't mean he wasn't a scumbag when younger. Bullying people, destroying peoples property, cutting up their clothes etc, abused animals as in the dog they had, they pumped that full of human based pills and tranqiilizers not knowing how damaging they can be fir an animal! That's why we have separate doctors called vets for animals because medications that work for humans can do they opposite for different kinds of animals. He mixed in all the jaques rougeau stuff to make them fight along with henning. Plus he was high as a kite on crack the night before sunmerslam with bret. My dad's done shitty things in the past and I've no issue saying it or hearing it but those who automatically jump to attack anyone telling the truth about it just doesn't want to accept the truth!
