I recall that before Diana became involved with the Al-Fayeds, he was found guilty of bribing members of Parliament.

Wasn’t there a woman named Lady Kanga he was seeing at the same time as Camilla? Diana was having flings with many men during her marriage as well. That’s why I always found her protests disingenuous. She wasn’t serious about saving her marriage. Her main goal was to destroy Charles by any...

They don’t have to be madly in love, but if they could have respected each other and had a sense of duty to the marriage it could have worked. Camilla would have had a tougher time getting his commitment. Weren’t there other women besides Camilla that were involved with Charles. The worse thing...

I am no fan of Prince Charles, but if one looks at the situation from his point of view, it makes no sense for him to give up Camilla. Although Diana was suffering deeply, she was not able to stop having affairs with other men. It’s not fair to expect him to give up his affair when she was still...

How do you misremember multiple conversations in which a RF member voiced concern regarding the child’s color. That line is appalling and shows that they don’t get it.

Completely agree!

Supporting sustainable jewelry does not mean that one cannot wear jewelry mined from the earth. Megan did not indicate that she would always wear sustainable jewelry when she said that she supported it.

But the problem is Betty is supposed to be a public servant who really should not be personally profiting from that.

I don’t follow them closely; I tend to hang out at the Diana board who I find endlessly fascinating. My impression of H&M comes from reading this forum. It seems more like bitterness as if they deeply offended the British people. I am not writing this to denigrate other posters. I respect their...

I am surprised at the degree of anger towards Harry and Meghan. They seem like a harmless couple. I live in the U.S. and honestly, their public image does not reflect poorly on the U.K. I admire their entrepreneural spirit . At least, they are not dependent on the government, saving British...

What did Charles do towards Diana that was bad. Diana was lying when she said she was in love with him. She had only gone on 11 dates. She ignored the fact that he was only fond her. She was an ambitious woman. She knew deep in her heart that she marrying him for the title, the status, and...

I don’t buy that Camilla was the great love of his life. He was involved with Dale Tyron for many years. Camilla was one of many. The tapes show the borderline behavior. I hate you, don’t leave me. The gaslighting and the lovebombing and the physical abuse. Diana would throw heavy objects at...

Diana would make arrangements so that the children did not see their father. That was what ultimately decided Charles to seek a separation which would have led to the divorce inevitably. I think Charles is essentially an honorable man and a religious man. He was committed to the marriage but...

She had a severe inability to take responsibility. I think that if she had quit her affairs and did not try undercut Charles publicly and let him have access to his children, she could easily have outcompeted Camilla. With her stunning beauty and youth and officially being his wife, she had so...

The thing I never understood about Diana’s thinking was why did she claim she wanted to resurrect her relationship with Charles, but continued to have all sorts of affairs. No spouse would take it seriously. Was she just not bright and able to think rationally or was claiming to want Charles and...

Very well said!

Sorry about my previous post; I see you were already answering my request for more detail in the Dimbleby book. IMO, Charles presented the truth of Diana's behavior which was verified by other people in the vicinity. Whether it was wrong to put this out in the public is not clear. As I said...

What a lovely story!:flowers:

If you don't mind writing more, what exactly did he say about her? I don't recall the exact details. I don't think the book was necessarily harmful to her, but more a confirmation of the many rumors of mental instability surrounding Diana. He pulled the curtain on the many severe symptoms she...

It's been a while since I saw the Dimbleby book. I don't have a copy with me now. What did Charles authorize in the book about Diana? Even if there was no physical affair, it would still be nearly as bad. She was having a emotional affair with her bodyguard. She states something to the effect...

But, she was cheating on him almost from the first starting with her bodyguard Manakee. She was not an innocent. She wasn't exclusively his wife for almost the entirety of the marriage. I don't think there was ever a period of time when she wasn't not having an affair. How could she expect...

The Morton book and the Dimbleby book are not equivalent in my opinion. I agree that the Dimbleby book was not the most flattering biography, but overall, it was pretty anodyne. He publicly complains about his parents which is not becoming to a man his age. This was the low point of the book...

He was not as good at the game because he did not go for the jugular like she did. He tried to protect the monarchy and his sons as much as he could despite great provocation. He could have destroyed her public image in a matter of months if all her affairs were publicized, especially the first...

The problem with trying to make a royal figure more knowable and accessible on a human level is that it endangers the whole point of being royal. Royalty, on its on own terms, is supposed to be better, more noble, more graceful than an ordinary person. The Charles-Diana saga completely shattered...

It's new to me. The passage of time, the world is moving further and further away from the media propaganda of the nineties. This will allow for better analysis of that period in history. As I wrote before, it will put the Diana time period in perspective and give more insights to the real...
