London - Frances Shand Kydd, the mother of the late Princess Diana, was being treated at a hospital in Scotland on Thursday after falling ill at home, a friend said.
Shand Kydd, 67, was admitted to the hospital near her home on the Argyll coast several days ago, the friend said.
She is "on the mend", her friend and Catholic priest, Father William McLean, said after visiting her.
Shand Kydd, who regularly attends Mass at St Columba's Cathedral in Oban, has previously told how her Catholic faith helped her to deal with the grief of her daughter's death.
Father McLean said he hoped Shand Kydd would soon be healthy enough to be released.
A hospital spokesperson refused to comment on her illness or her condition.
