London - Ms Monica Lewinsky has compared herself to Princess Diana in an interview with biographer Andrew Morton, saying she was in the "similar situation" of being "wronged" by the man she loved, the Sunday Mirror said.

The former White House intern claimed her affair with President Clinton was similar to Princess Diana's marriage to Prince Charles.

"I'm not a princess in a royal sense but I was also wronged by a man who said he loved me. And remember, I was in love with him. I was trapped too," the 25-year-old said during an interview in New York with a Mirror journalist, Morton and his editor.

Morton, the author of Diana, Her True Story which gave first-hand accounts of the Wales's marital problems and Princess Diana's eating disorders, will on March 5th publish a book written in collaboration with Ms Lewinsky.

"I had a lot of pressure on me and, like Diana, I had nowhere to go, nowhere to hide. I was in love with him," she said, adding: "Now I'm just mad at him." Ms Lewinsky said she was outraged by Mr Clinton's now-famous denial of their affair on television, where he said he never had sexual relations with "that woman". "That woman! He'd forgotten my name, the creep," she said.
