Comments by "Glen" (@glen7318) on "The Harsh Reality Of Diana's Life As A Royal | A Princess Under Pressure | Real Royalty" video.

@lynettecrilly5805 Dont know why you want Harry to be the next King wehn (a)isn't going to happen, he is not the heir and (b) he has walked out on royal life.. and does not want to be royal
6
@myrnanaling6977 Do you really think even if Charles HAD doubts, he woudl "disown" his wife's child? Cause a scandal?
6
dont be so foolish. THere has been an in depth investigation of her death years ago, which told the truth about her death, ie that it was due to excessive speed and driving iwth drink taken, and not wearing a seat belt
5
@Alfakkin what nonsense. Diana's children were in boarding school too... most upper class children were.
5
no, we are not all still mourning and relling from her death. It was very sad but it is not something that all the world is suffering about now 20 years later
4
Why? A lot of people are much nicer and sweeter with people they only have to meet once.. or behave differently at work to teh way they do at home.
4
@Bogna1 unfortunately Diana was so good at being sweet in public that she is seen as sweet and angelic all hte time. But people who worked with Diana or met her in some private setting were often a lot cooler towards her than people who saw her at an engagement.
4
what new charities was she supporting?
3
@teresitafiesta4207 well honestly? Grief eases over time. Esp when it is grief for someone you dont know personally.....
3
@jojulida3709 you do know that Henry VIII was not the lover of Camilla's grandmother??? He died centuries ago. And kings do not give their mistresses a "wage".
3
@jeffmode6526 well he wasn't unfaithful at the start of the marriage. he tried ot make the marraiage to Diana work, they found that they didn't get on well the more time they spent together.. and charles gave up trying after a while.
3
@fox39forever again what did they do to her? She was a part of the Royal family, had access to great wealth and luxury, found interesting charity work that she would never have gotten on her own qualifications, was she beaten? Or starved or had to manage without servants? Did she lose custody of her children when she got divorced? No.
3
According to what Diana herself said, she was upset because Camilla had phoned him just before he went away, to say goodbye and she left the room to give them some privacy. So she knew perfectly well that there was a special relationship between Charles and Camilla so why didnt she back out back then?
3
@ウサギー and same applies to him. He was unhappy in his marriage, he could not get a divorce, so he turned to a woman he really flet happy and comfortable with. Diana did the same, when she was unhappy... and she didn't mind if the man involved was married. Taking revenge on Charles did not ultimately do her any good.... She ended up being pushed into a divorce and did not seem to have much luck in finding another man
3
@ejacoleman5797 They are not living on government whatever that means. They live on the money that comes from teh Crown estates..As for Camilla, she does do charity work like all royal ladies.
3
why do you depend on celebs for role models?
3
Perhaps, but she was not always kind hearted and as she grew older, her looks wold fade. Moreover she was increasingly shaky mentally.
3
@Saucyakld He hasn't married his mother, and he 's not ugly. If he is aduterous, so are many many people, including Diana
3
@julielawlor1545 she didnt spend most of her life around the RF.
2
@aurellamasse7402 JFK was a powerful man, Charles' is not the POTUS, the presdident of the Free world. He does not have the sort of power that a US President has. He is aware that his postion springs from his royal birth and from his social power, so he has tried to work hard to make that mean something, It upset him when Diana suddenly became so popular, she was new to the RF, she was pretty but had done nothing at the time.. of course he was upset and annoyed by it...
2
And Diana hurt them too by her publicising her marital problems. They didn't want to see that all over the papers.
2
where did she find solutions for their problems???
2
@jennymehmet4095 But she' never was queen of England. Had she remained married to Charles she would not be queen until he became King.
2
He stayed around long time for someone who didn't want his family around. He is 37.. and he's only left the RF last year
2
@Rinsuki She didnt continue most of her charity wrok after the divorce
2
@veraroyen4986 True, she kept 6 charities but did not do that much steady work for them. She was preocuppied with her private life and seeemed at the mercy of whoever talked to her at a given time
2
can you blame him? Its not Diana's fault but she overshadwowed Charles because she was so pretty and charming..Diana had an x factor that made her madly popular, and Charles who had been used to a certain degree of admiration was bewildered by it. So was Diana at first. She was frightened by the crowds. .
2
dont be ridiculous
2
There was no terrible crime. There was spectacular stupidity on the part of Dod Fayed which helped to cause the tragedy...
2
@francesodle6069 They both put on a front. They had to but their differences were so great that over time they could not keep it up. Other royal couples have hd their problems but tehy were able to keep it more discreet
2
@veronicalambertis7400 Im not sure what your point is. Dodi was escoritng Diana, and he did not make good decisions in terms of avoiding the press or having good security and drivers. HIs driver was not qualified, and had been drinking. The couple did not wear seat belts, and Henri Paul taunted the press, outside and the press chased after them.
2
@zzzbbbooo but that's not the point. If Charles is the devil for having one affair, what must Diana be like, to have had several? but then since people constantly bring up "young" and lovely, when they mention her its clear that she is considered right because she was young and pretty
2
so why did her family wait til the end of their lives to decide that she was not strong enough to cope with a high profile marriage? when did they say this?
2
and it is ficitonal nonsense. She was supported, she did get help, and it took years for her to overcome her eating disorders
2
@linaroco3493 They didn't kill her. That's nonsense. She was free of her marraige and could have built a new life. Sadly, she died in an accident
2
@tamararutland-mills9530 Who are these professionals? Doctors? Pscychologists?
2
@ウサギー Diana was having affairs too, so to out her husband's affair, it left her open to other people saying "you're having an affair as well". What good did she do herself by outing Charles' affair?
2
@tamararutland-mills9530 She wasn't IMO likely to be happy with Charles, whehter Camilla was there or not. She and he didn't get on. They were tense, Diana had bulimia, and she didn't like the coutnry life much. Witin a few years, the marriage was probably almost past repair. And Diana got addticed to the glamour of royal/public life.. so I dont think that she'd have been happy with a couple of kids and a country house...
2
@susanlockyer1192 no evidence that the Spencers had anything to do iwth the marriage.
2
@charliekezza Andrew PB is a catholic so htere was never any prospect of his marrying Anne. He loved Camilla but he was never faithful to her. He reamined loyal to her, during her affair with Charles until Charles outed the affair officially and then he went for a divorce.. He had stayed wtih Cam because in spite of their ups and downs they are good friends.. and he would not leave her until Charles had taken open responsibilty for her.
2
@angelafeldman5903 so Diana was autisitic? as for Charles, he has done his best to use his postition to help people. he's tried to learn about various issues.. and he has dedicated his working life to improving the lives of people.
2
@fox39forever that could be because he's not awful or repulsive. he has done his best to do good, he has made mistakes but got on with his life...
2
@jessilerue7684 How did he abuse her?
2
@mabear9238 She did encourage them and that was her downfall. She thought she could use them but they were using her
2
@Faraway - no, they havne't. He was known to drink.. and he was taking Prozac which should not be mixed with Alcohol. His bar bill at the Ritz proved that he had 2 drinks there.. and he had more outside
2
@noongourfain He didn't leave after the wedding on a tour
2
@MandyJMaddison obviously "some did and some didn't", but if a girl of 20 was proposed to by a man of 25 who wasn't that well off and by an well to do earl who was 30 her family would probably pressure her to take the earl. And yes of course she was attracted by his being Prince of Wales.. its not something you can ignore. Just as loads of young girls applied for St Andrews University when it was known that William was going to be a student there. As for Diana's grandmohters, Im not sure what you mean. Lady Fermoy's husband was indeed a lot older than her - 23 years but Cynthia Hamilton who married Diana's Spencer grandfather, was only 5 years younger than her husband.
2
dont be silly. They certainly dont wnat another unstable young woman like Diana.
2
what volunteering work? The only volunteer work she did was as a kid at school
2
@fox39forever She was a commoner. Unlike in European noble systems... where ALL members of a noble family have noble rank, in the UK the only one who is noble is the holder of the title. Therefore DI's fatherr was a nobleman, Diana was a commoner.
2
@gizellamoffoot4062 They didnt drive her around Paris. That's simply wrong. She had to be cut out of hte car, stabliised and driven to a hospital - they had to go slowly becuase her heart stopped during hte drive and they had to revivie her.
2
nonsense. Diana died not becuase of any action of charles' but because she was in a car that was speeding wiht a drunk driver. SHe was divorced from Charles, still a young woman and had plenty of money and was very good looking.. she could have had a very nice life, after her divorce but she was unlucky enough to pick a boyfriend who was silly and careless and to let him pick a driver who wasn't experiencned and who was drinking
2
@jamesmarshall1967 She was never Princess Charles of Wales. That would be the title of the wife of the son of the POW.
2
@jamesmarshall1967 Charles was never Prince Charles of wales.. he is HRH THE PRINCE OF WALES. so how could Diana be Prss Ch of Wales
2
nonsense. she was beautiful and striking @21ROEHAMPTON
1
@barbaracreel2777 And Diana lied to cover her relationships with men. She tells James Gilbey that she can tell Charles/ her staff that she's going to London for back treatment, but she was going to meet him. She told the press's she went to hospital wards to comfort sick patients, but she was there to meet her boyfriend Hasnat Kahn. By the way Diana's face was flushed and rosy too. Do you think she's a drunk? Charles is not much of a drinker and I doubt very much if Camilla said what you attirubute to her.
1
@MandyJMaddison Neither of Diana's sisters were ladies in waiting. Dont make things up
1
@lorrainetavares1753 so are you saying that Diana had affairs from the very beginning of their marriage? Do you realise that that would mean she was very irresponsible and selfish
1
@abbatrouble we know quite well who their father is.
1
you seem to be confusing commoner with British. They are 2 different concepts
1
@julielawlor1545 she played with them occasionally... as a child.
1
because the [people of the UK dont obsess about royals in the way that outside people think they do.
1
It was inevitable. THe queen just did not want to face it. @susanlockyer1192
1
ridiculous. they were both fighting in the newspapers adn the marraige clearly coudl not continue @susanlockyer1192
1
@susanlockyer1192 the marriage was a faillure from ealry on, and was not getting any better, as they got older. It had reached a point where they simply could not carry on as a married couple.
1
@fox39forever I taek it you mean Charles and I'd like to know how he is genoicidal?
1
@tamararutland-mills9530 She was not encouraged to have an affair but when she did find a lover, the RF turned a blind eye to it, since the marriage was supposed to last and they hoped she would find someone to keep her happy.
1
@marigold6920 she was a girl of 19. she was uneasy about the marriage as was Charles but boht of htem hoped for the best.
1
dont talk nonsense. The Windsors are royal, the Spencers are just nobility and Dian was a commoner
1
if you can offer any proof of all this, suggest you go to the police.
1
should he have also told Diana she was a home wrecker?
1
@cucumberman1234567 So why did Harry and Meghan pay the money back?
1
@marigold6920 I suppose thtat all her friends told you that
1
She had her faults that does not make her the most awful person ever. @Stephanie-zd5im
1
@Stephanie-zd5im i hve not heard of any of her friends blackguarding her. She had her faults like all people.
1
nonense. Diana did ot invite Cam to Highgrove during the early years of their marriage. Charles did not insist on them socialising iwth Cam.
1
@marigold6920 the affairs did not result in divorces.
1
nonsense. Diana was unhappily married so she turned to other men. They were mostl pretty eager to have a fling with her. @Stephanie-zd5im
1
They did not have to say yes. As far as I can see a lot of men were very keen to console Diana for her marriage, and to make use of her @Stephanie-zd5im
1
@Stephanie-zd5im and they willingly slept with her nad in Hewitts case made money out of her.
1
Strangely Royal status has nothing to do with looks, and a lot more to do with being born into a royal family
1
@marigold6920 where did she say this? Was it to a member of her family?
1
Im not sure what you are referrring to. I have read Tina B's book, dont rememmber this in it but if you tell me where to find it I can check. @Stephanie-zd5im
1
noone?
1
Diana's own behaviour was not that different from Camilla's in her private life. She got invovled with married men, who had children and didn't seem to mind that their wives were not always happy with it. So if you disapprove of Cam you must also disapprove of Diana
1
would she have studied for 3 or 4 years, done long shifts, etc?
1
@ritahorvath8207 dont talk nonsense. She had brief affair with Dodi, neither of them was serious about it, and he was not the love of her life
1
no evidence of this whatsoever. Diana wanted to marry Charles and her family were not IMO all that bothered @susanlockyer1192
1
no evidence whatsoever of this. @susanlockyer1192
1
@susanlockyer1192 no evidence of this at all. Diana fell for Charles and had her eye on him.
1
only in your head
1
well yes, ;people do generally love their mothers
1
@ritahorvath8207 oh stop this. She was not seriously involved with Dodi.
1
do you think that is funny or admirable?
1
@veronicaivanova Tehy are not interchangeable. Princess of Wales is the title of the wife of the Prince of W.. Princess diana would mean that she was a blood member of hte RF
1
@freedomfreedom6306 you may not know but it is well known that Anne (not Anna) married her second husband in the Church of Scotland which has always been more liberal on the issue of divorce. Charles remarried in a register office and then had a blessing from the C of E. (agian well known).
1
@angelrosa6758 all upper class children went to boarding school back then.. and Charles did not pay any heed to Diana's affairs. He ddint try and stop her at all
1
then presumably you feel the same about Diana who had more than 1 married lover,
1
@Truthseeker11-q1k rubbish. Diana was not likely to stay wihtout a lover and she had not found a steady partner by the time of her death.
1
nonsense. Charles has been crowned king, so has his wife been crowned queen. NOthing has happened.
1
@j.whiteoak6408 No, she dropped most of her charites after her divorce. She kept a few, but she was not seen doing that much charity work in her last year
1
@j.whiteoak6408 but Diana gav up royal duties after her divorce, so she was not doing tours on behalf of the queen or the UK. She dropped all her charities except 6 and the few she kept, she didn't alwasy do a lot for them. Her AIDS charity was disappointed that she did not do more for them. She was not all that busy in thte last year, except for taking up the landmines cause.. She did probalby visit people privately but she had a lot of time on her hands iwth the boys away at school and she didn't do an awful lot in the charity field besdies dropping her formal patronages
1
@j.whiteoak6408 yes, but Im not sure why you are saying what a busy schedule Royals have. Yes some working royals are very busy, but Diana did not have any role after her divorce. She kept 6 Charites but its a fact that she wasn't seen much in public working for them. Her AIDS Charity was not happy with her because they said that when they asked her if she was available for an event, she would not commit to it and they began to leave her out of their official work. I think she did do some private visits, but she had cut back a lot on the official charity work which she could do very well. Her picture at a charity event would make a lot of difference to donations and public interest, so if she didn't do these events, her Charites were bound to be disappointed. I think she was tired out and not able to commit, I think her h eart was in the right place.. but she was unhappy about her private life and that was taking up more of her attention...
1
@MandyJMaddison that's not true. The charities request patronage from the RF, and if a royal retires or gives up a charity then its negotiated who will take over. Diana was given easier charities at first because she was only 20 and the RF thoguht in terms of her doing children and old people things. over time she took on more controversial works.
1
@MandyJMaddison nonsnese of course it was controversial. Conservative people had strong opinions about HIV, and many felt that the RF should not support charities which were there to help people wit HIV. It was an edgy charity. I doubt if Diana would have been taking it on when she was a newly married bride
1
research? @veraroyen4986
1
A lot of people may have admired her, but certianly not everyone fell in love with her. Charles did IMO have a brief falling in love wiht her period, but it was based on her looks, which attracted him and not knowing her all that well. When they did get to know each other better, they found that they had nothing in common and they got on eeach other's nerves
1
@josephinekennerly113 Because he loved her, he saw her as a person, not a body
1
when did they do this? DId they tell you that they were admitting it? DId they speak to journalists? @susanlockyer1192
1
@marigold6920 that is not true. They said they did not ask her to events so much because she was reluctant to commit herself. but they were grateful for her patronage
1
@lynneburridge9082 they are talking nonsense. The Spencers are upper class, the RF are royal. They are superior in rank.
1
evidence of this? when was Camilla going round knocking down other kids' sand castles?
1
the whole world did not weep
1
Do you mean that Diana was often on bad terms wiht her family like Meghan?
1
@stanleyjohnson3769 She loved her family yes but IMO Meghan's family is very fractured so I can't see how she is to be considered similar to Diana in terms of family. The only similarity is that Diana often quarreled with her family and was on bad terms with one or other of them at various times in her life. Kate OTOH seems to have a very stable close family that she reamins close to.
1
you realise that your first sentence is compltely at odds with the second sentnce
1
Philip is a bit of a bully towards Charles but he was essentially well meaning. He was trying to toughen his son up. but it was probably a bad idea to send C to Gordounstoun...
1
@belinhel Lady Colin Cambell says a lot of ridiculous things. They didn't spend the night together. Do you really think that they did
1
nonsense. She was not the only royal to do chaity work, and she did not deidcate her life to it.
1
you think she was honest and kind because you like her face?
1
@AnikaNawarAhmed She does have the title Duchess,. How can you say that when she is known as HRH THE Duchess of Corrnwall? And she can be queen. Unless she and Charles choose not to use the title, she becomes queen once Charles becomes king.
1
that's so ridiculous. most mothers love their sons. how does that make her unique?
1
She was hounded because she was so popular. the public watned to see her so the press chased her. She was not murdered.
1
She had soem royal blood, on teh wrong side of the blanket. Lots of upper class people do and ordinary people. It is not that special. @Shelbymaldita
1
what are you talking about? how do you get the idea that Camilla could not have children?
1
dont be ludicrous
1
yes she was a commoner - only a peer has superior rank in the UK
1
why would anyone want to replace her shoes? how would they do this? Steal a pair and put new ones there?
1
what does it mean? @corncakes6941
1
does not make sense. If one said noone could FILL her shoes, it would be sensible @corncakes6941
1
@iceprincess3981 rubbish. Diana spent as much time with her boys as she could. She went on holidays when they were with their father, she cleared her diary to be with them during her times of having them.
1
@jamesmarshall1967 Not true. the wife of a prince is a princess
1
@jamesmarshall1967 They are all princesses. They are HRH as the wives of Princes. They are not princesses by blood.. but they are princesses. Just like the wife of the King is queen and Her Majesty
1
no she didnt. Camilla was a threat to the marriage Diana's lovers were not. @susanlockyer1192
1
this is absolute nonsense. Diana had access to free security from the Met, but she gave up using htem.
1
@MuscleNMarriage not sure what you mean
1
I think its more correct to say that Diana won battles, but she lost the war and ended up dead.
1
nonsense. @MandyJMaddison
1
dont be ridiculous. Andrew PB has always been part of the Royal social cirlce and he and Camilla did not have to pretend to share Charles's interests
1
it is possible to love someone without having much in common, and Charles was the older one who should have been able to gauge better if he was really compatible with Diana... @Stephanie-zd5im
1
that does not mean that she did not love him. She was in awe of his being so clever as she thought of it, but in practice, she was bored by most of his enthuasiams @Stephanie-zd5im
1
she didnt break up WIll's marriage and its dubious if she had an actual affair with her bodyguard @julielawlor1545
1
@julielawlor1545 no, she did not. Will used his fling with Diana to end his marriage. no evidence that she had an affair with her bodyguard
1
@julielawlor1545 no, she didnt. Will said that he had been pressured into the marraige with Julia and he was clearly looking for a way out. and there's no evidence of her having an affair with a married bodyguard
1
@tamararutland-mills9530 Professional people do not analyse people they have never met
1
@tamararutland-mills9530 Professionals such as doctors and psychologists should not speak about a case unless they have met the person in question. from a brief look about HG Tudor, it seems as if no-one knows who he/she is, so I dont know what credentials he has.
1
@marigold6920 what a nasty remark. Does Camilla have the street smarts of an alley cat? Princess Anne?
1
@Stephanie-zd5im yes it is nasty because it refers to sexual behaviour.
1
if someone makes a vuglar nasty remark about Diana for her affairs, ALley cat, then I assume they would say the same about other women including royals who have had affairs. Including Cam and Pss Anne. I notice you dont refer to Charles as an alley cat either. Is it just certain women? @Stephanie-zd5im
1
@Stephanie-zd5im I notice you dont refer to Camilla or Charles as alley cats, though both of them had several sexual partners including ones who were married.
1
@공정표 He did like her at first, but he did find her difficult and it soon wore out his affection.
1
@tessdurberville711 he had dozens of mistresses and courtesans
1
I've never heard of any evidence of Andrew and Diana other than they were teh same age and played togehter as children. TIna Browns bio of Diana is a fairly good detailed one and I dont think it mentions any sign of the Spencers trying to fix Diana up with Andrew or Charles. She was living in London and organising her own social life.... and she IMO went for Charles. I just had a quick look at the book and in the early mentions of Andrew I dont see anything saying that they tried to fix A up with Diana @susanlockyer1192
1
I've never heard of Andrew being at Althorp. @susanlockyer1192
1
@susanlockyer1192 i have read bios of Diana, but I've never seen one htat suggested that Andrew was invited to Althorp for DIana, he was only a year older than her, so it was not really likely that he would marry her. He was more likely to wait until he was a few years older.
1
@erickanew What on earht do you mean Camilla was too old? She is bout a year older than him. She had her 2 children in the 1970s.
1
@charliekezza Who are you talking ab out? Andrew Parker Bowles? He was a notorious skirt chaser, and was never faithful to Camilla during their marriage. She got fed up and started an affair with Charles. He wnet on sleepnng around and finally did find a lady he wanted to marry, but sadly the poor woman died some years after their marriage. He has remained good friends with Camilla and with his old girlfriend Princess Anne...
1
What inteview with the press? She only did one interview with Martin bashir in 1995 and that was on TV
1
What is strange about it? Its not exactly news after 30 years
1
so you must have knonw her pretty well to know her intimate feelings for her husband. @Stephanie-zd5im
1
go on hoping.
1
but it got her killed. If you want a place in the limelight, you are going to be chased by press and photographers, adn you need to take security precautions. Diana refused to do so
1
so you think that William should junk in his royal role and take off for America too?
1
what are you talking about
1
dont talk nonsense.
1
From what I can recollect she said that before Charles went away, Camilla called him to say good bye and she left the room to give them soem privacy.. so shew knew that they had a close relationship. Then she had a row with Charles about Camilal.
1
stop talkng nonsense. Diana tipped off paps herself at times, and she did not ned Charles to send anyone after her
1
yes they are. THey have been recognised by Parliament as the Royal family...
1
@lapeseulement well if that's the case, the true line has been out of the succession for hundreds of years.
1
how much?
1
yes she was a commoner. Lady is just a courtesy title, her father was a peer which menas he had a higher rank than his daughter.
1
how do you know this?
1
@angelafeldman5903 What evidence is there that Diana was a genius? she failed all her exams, she wasn't ever noted fro being clever.. and she's a genius?
1
I t hink you are talking nonsense
1
@tessdurberville711 rubbish. her marriage was bitterly unhappy, they could not remain married. so how could she have been queen?
1
@msr1116 Whom did he propose to? I have only heard of his offering to Diana and Camilla and possibley to Amanda Knatchbull...
1
@gone7777 Diana was friendly with Jimmy Saville
1
dont talk rot
1
evidence of this?
1
how could she bring legitimate royal blood into the line? her royal blood such as it was, was mostly from Charles II's children
1
@jamesmarshall1967 no, she was never Princess Charles of wales.
1
what nonsense are you talking
1
so who is this woman and how is she Will and Harry's sister? @CharliesAngelTarot
1
@joannebaker4925 if they are so cruel and cold and vindicitve, how come Diaana who was supposed to be so senstive and intuitive, didn't pick up on this and avoid them, instead of dating Charles
1
@joannebaker4925 She was 20 and she was from a family that had served the Crown for generations. She lived next door to the RF at Sandringham.. and if she found out how awful they are when she married in, how come she was very upset and reluctant when the queen ordered a divorce>?
1
@MandyJMaddison If you mean Lord Spencer he was about 12 year older than his wife, Frances... and of course girls of her generation married men who were older, and if possible, titled and well off...
1
@MandyJMaddison of course they did, if the heir to an earldom offered and he was 10 or 15 years older... it was likely that an upper class girl would marry him.. the present King of Belgium is married to a woman who's about 10 years his junior. Kitty Spencer has just married a man who is about 30 years older than her, older than her own father....

@noongourfain I really dont know what you are talking about. Charles and Diana went on honeymoon after thier marriage. They were away on a cruise for about 3 weeks nad then spent several weeks at Balmoral. That was in the early autumn of 1981. Charles was not away on any 7 week tour when he was on his honeymoon. Some time after that, I think it was around Nov or December of 81, Charles and Diana did a tour of Wales together. So I dont know where you are geting that he was away the day after his marriage on a 7 week tour

@MandyJMaddison Of course it was normal for a girl of Frances 's class in the 1950s. So I dont know why you are implying that Frances was some kind of gold digger. She was brought up to be in society and find a husband...there was family pressure to marry well even if hte man was a lot older. and Diana's generation was not that far away from her mothers in that upper class girls still married well if possible and did not go in for careers or college education. It was the same in the 50s for girls of other classes, they were expected to marry if possible.. Career girls were relatively rare and a middle class girl would be expected to catch a husband doing well in his profession or business...

@noongourfain Yes their lives are well documented and it is well known that C and Di spent their wedding Night at Broadlands, lord Mountbatten's home. Then they went on a cruise on Brittannia for about 3 weeks. After that they came back to Balmoral and spent some time there shooting adn honeymooning. A little later, they did a tour of Wales together. Charles wasn't on any tour the day after his marriage. if soemone is saying this, then they know soemthing that noone else knows. He was on a boat in the Mediterranean.

He did support her but he soon unfortuntley became jealous of her being so adored by the public while he was getting less attention. that began to cause cracks in the marriage, on top of the fact that they were an ill matched couple. @Stephanie-zd5im

@wkjeom making no sense there
1
Can you expalin please how Diana is good and Charles is evil?
1
@gmail4344 Dont bother asking?
1
no, but neither was Diana. She had a lot of faults. @Stephanie-zd5im
1
She didnt. She was charming in public but in private she was often il nad difficult. I think that Charles, who lived with her, knew her rather better than people who only saw her in public
1
She was terribly injured. There was a tear in a vein near her heart and it was not something that could be fixed easily . when they got her out of the car, she began to go into cardiac arrest and they hd to stabilise her. When they drove to the nearest hosptial that had facilities to treat her injuries, she again went into cardiac arrest and they had to stop and stabilise her.

stop talking libellous nonsense @mariagenovesa3772
1
yes she dyed it a lot and it began to look rather lifeless and stiff
1
I think you dont know what you are talkng about. Aristocrats are not royal
1
yes, but they were not royal, and Diana was a commoner. Just as Kate was a commoner. or Fergie
1
stop being so foolish. Dianahad some lovers, its only to be expected when she had had a very quiet girlhood, married young and had an unhappy marriage. Her sons know this @peterlawrence6815
1
No, they love her because she had her faults but she also had good qualities and htey know that. @peterlawrence6815
1
if you are going to continually accuse Diana of promiscuity, learn to spell it. ANd Im sure that Charles at least had many more lovers than Diana chalked up @peterlawrence6815
1
@glynisbeaumont-terry8058 Ok, how many men? What proof do you have?
1
being a free woman led to her being on a holiday with a silly man who did not provide proper security
1
dont be silly
1
what are you talking about? Do any of the RF nurse people or clean houses?
1
@angelrosa6758 He was not old or sour. He was the one who had to live iwth Diana and he didn't find her as easy and charming in private as she was in public
1
noone?
1
Diana saw her lover in private at highgrove as well....
1
whats it to you? ANne's had the same hairstlyle for years too.
1
@lorrainetavares1753 If William is not his real son then Diana must have been fooling around with someone during her honeymoon
1
Yes I think she did find him boring when they got married. But that was who he was.. He was into ideas and tryng to make the world a better place, and in his free time he liked coutnry life. IF Di wasn't interested in any of that, she was marrying the wrong man
1
@MandyJMaddison absolute rubbish. How is that different to any aristocratic woman who was reared to get married? As I recall, Johnny Spencer was about 12 years older than Frances, and their marriage was unhappy, due to incompatiblity and problems with producing an heir
1
what movies? She was not a film star
1
@Marina E. No, it wasn't easy for them to divorce but if Diana was allowed to solace herself wtih lovers, i dont see why Charles is denigrated for doing the same thing
1
dont be ludicrous. the succession has nothing to do with the queen it is laid down in law, and Parliament is not going to change it.
1
have you never heard of anyone remarrying after a divorce?
1
so how many lovers did Charle notch up during his 20s? @abbatrouble
1
Charles IS first Violin because of who he is. If you dont like that, OK but it is the way monarchy works and Di should have known that. Camilla shares many of Charles' interests and she tires to get on with him.. whereas Diana didn't make much of an effort after their courtship. She openly hated the country life and began to complain about it..
1
dont be idiotic. Diana was a mistress. Camilla is the queen
1
@lorrainetavares1753 She didn't know this at all. She was in a paranoid mood.. and claimed that Charles was going to kill her to marry Tiggy. Well he had no intention of marrying Tiggy.. but Diana got the idea in her head. If she was sure that Charles was going to kill her why did she not insist on always using her own car and a trusted driver?
