  1.  @margarethmichelina5146  She wasn't rebellious at all. She could have given up he place in the succession to marry Peter Townsend but she wouldn't do that. And I doubt if she had much sympathy with Diana. She was barely on speaking terms with her when they were neighbours at KP

  2. Times have changed. Years ago a new royal bride usually got a year or 2 off being very much admired. now the press in many countries is pretty harsh to new royal girlfriends and brides. They get a baptism of fire. Diana was popular.. Meghan and kate both got rough rides. Kate has quietly stuck it out and got on with her married life.. Megh has left

  3.  @trishaabass9815  And there is a phone call confirming Diana's having to say the least an intimate chat with a male friend... where she badmouths the RF.. and is clearly at least flirting with the man

  4.  @BiG-JuPO1O1  The media criticized Diana very little. Until the last year or 2 she was very popular... But Meghan soon lost any goodwill with the Press and its not likely to stop now. but there's a very simple solution and Diana was told also to do it.. DONT READ THE PAPERS. Meg knows that she wont get any good press in the British tabloids, and she's now living in the US. just ignore them.

  5. Diana's death was investigated very thorougly, iwht a long and detailed inquest. It wasn't quickly declared an accident at all.

  6.  @Celticmist-qz6ve  yes she had Ldy Susan, and other staff helped and advised her.

  7.  @darren_myatt  Divorce isn't a cure all. It involves children being hurt by their parents leaving, it doesn't stop fights over the kids and custody, and there are issues with step parents.. And it doesn't mean that you'll be happy second time around...A lot of second marriages break up...

  8.  @melanino  Since Meghan's left the RF, I can't see that it matters if the British press still dislike her...What does she care? She has a rich doting husband, a manision in LA...

  9.  @maggiekarabel123  no, she wasnt. She was harrassed by the press, called Waity Katie, later photographed changing her clothes and half naked iwht long lenses.

  10.  @chichiro8625  where was she bullied? Was it when she had an expensive wedding at Windsor on the tax payers money? or got a nice house there? Did the queen bully her inviting her to her house for Christmas? Did the people who came to see her at engagements bully her?
    2
  11.  @chichiro8625  yes the press didn't like Meghan - because Harry was a lot less friendly when she came along. but the whole coutnry hardly bullied her. The RF IMO were welcoming, the queen invited her for Christmas, even when fiancees weren't usually invited and according to Harry, she found the RF "the family she had never had".. so I hardly think she was bullied by the whoel country

  12. you're talking nonsense.

  13. Charles was not forbidden from being able to act in plays. He was involved in drama at college.. Obviously he could not be a full time actor but Im sure he never wanted to be. He was upset and annoyed about Diana's dancing because she blindsided him. the previous year she and He had done a skit in the show.. but this year, she had a secret act worked up iwth Wayne Sleep and didn't invovle him in it...

  14.  @cleverkittn  sounds very silly. How could anyone think that Eton was an ordinary school?

  15.  @Celticmist-qz6ve  absolute rubbish. Diana and Meghan boht got hlep and so did Fergie.
    2
  16.  @Celticmist-qz6ve  rubibsh. Diana did not stay at finishing school, she left after a month or2.

  17. how did she know that? @carimacavan

  18.  @mamacitabambi3558  here woudl QUeen Charlotte have gotten any African ancestry? German princesses at the time married germans.

  19.  @elkpaz560  I'd hardly say that James HEwitt loved her much. we know litlte of her relationship wtih Barry Manakee but he was a married man and his feelings for her were problably more sympathy than love.

  20.  @jessicavictoriacarrillo7254  That's not true. They spent weekends at Highgrove when courting. THey were not chaperoned, I expect there were staff around but its not as if they were never alone

  21.  @Vixen743  I would have said that Diana was the worst choice ever. not Camilla.
    2
  22.  @mermaidlilyrose  possibly but Diana was no doubt advised to think very carefully over getting married. She was given a breathing space when Charles proposed, to go to Austrialia and see her mother, and think it over before she committed herself.
    2
  23.  @CA-qw7qk  dont talk absolute rubbish. Diana wanted to marry Charles, even if her family had dissuaded her she would have refused to listen. Its not the Spencers fault that she could not handle the marriag
    2
  24.  @Vixen743  yes he was well liked. and he could NOT easily step down from his place in the succession. Even when the problems of the Wales marriage were at the worst, the queen clearly did not see that as a solution...
    2
  25.  @tigresscancook9476  If that was her ambition, she has worked it out very well. She and WIlliam waited a long time, to be sure that they were compatible and that Kate could handle being royal. She has had her babies, and is now taking up more royal work. IF the marriage were to break down, which I hope it wont, I think she would handle it as well as she could

  26.  @shaynelahmed6323  do you think that William is as badly bred as the Spencers showed themselves to be?
    2
  27.  @lexi-op5vk  Gay men liked her
    2
  28. Nonsense. Charles did hug the children, he just wasn't seen doing it as much in public as Di was
    2
  29.  @lemsip207  she probably went home as a single girl because all her freinds went home. She grew increasingly fed up with country life, did not like gardening or riding or any country sports, and got furious wiht charles for wanting to spend his weekneds in the country

  30. she wasn't doing that much, really
    1
  31.  @chichiro8625  so why did she marry into it, and grin away on royal engagements?
    1
  32.  @chichiro8625  So are we to assume that Kate is destroyed? Or Sophie?

  33.  @chichiro8625  Dont really know what you mean by that

  34.  @chichiro8625  That was not the impression i got from Harry's interviews. He claimed that someone in the RF made a racist remark about the baby, and would not say who, except that it wasn't Philip or the queen. He said that his father refused to take his calls and that the way he was raised was painful, so that rather makes you wonder which is the truth, did the family welcome her or were they horrible to her. H is like his mother in that he often contradicts himself

  35. Like Diana I guess

  36.  @DinameneVelho  How waould he be advised to drop it? Its obviously not a career path for him, but it wasn't for Diana either. He was probalby as Wayne Sleep suggests annoyed that instead of doing some kind of funny act with him, she had prepared this act with Sleep, wihtout telling him

  37.  @Jill_of_trades  No, she didnt. That is for professional stars of screen and stage. Charles was not forbidden form acting at Cambridge.

  38.  @WeneedmoreGodsinTshirts  stop being silly. If there was no monarchy the money would go on elections, providing security for presidents families and their engagements

  39.  @kanamenoname210  how was Diana kept as a caged bird? She had her own friends, she had her own life and lovers and Charles turned a blind eye to them. He would rather have had a divorce, I think but he accepted that at the time of hte later 80s it wansn't possilbe and he let Diana lead her own life....

  40.  @tessdurberville711  you are sick.

  41. I dont think that there has been a new bio of Diana out in 20 years.. Im not saying she's forgotten or disliked but overall, she's not adored as she was years ago

  42.  @LLandS18  dont be stupid.
    1
  43.  @nicolearayaa  and it is Diana's story, with her take on events. It isn't anything like 100% true as even her sympathetic biographers admit
    1
  44. for a small boy like Charles, seeing his mother after a long absence can be daunting. Some kids are upset by the long absence and act up, so the queen might have been trying to keep things low keey in public...

  45. how can you?  @michellew4637

  46.  @aiwekano8593  well Haarry was allowed to marry Meghan, who was divorced, older than the average royal bride, had a very different life expereince and was American.. She was welcomed into the family and was out in a year

  47.  @nightnyungwe5945  Not all royals get security... many working royals only get it when on official business.

  48.  @NoOne-wn9ju  Did Diana find that emoting all the time caused her to be happier

  49.  @NoelPeters-k7s  what ar eyou on about?

  50.  @lorrainehughes-smith6447  because Camilla didn't want to marry Charles....
