Diana told me real reason her marriage to Charles failed just before she died - it wasn't Camilla
DIANA revealed the real reason her marriage with Charles ended shortly before death, says a royal expert.
Royal author Ingrid Seward spoke on The Sun's Royal Exclusives Show about a conversation she had with the late princess before she died.
The royal expert told The Sun's Royal Editor, Matt Wilkinson, Camilla was not the reason their marriage broke down despite the stories.
"She had this spectre of Camilla in her head the whole time, she was obsessed, yet when I last spoke to her I brought Camilla up, and she said 'oh it wasn't Camilla that ruined our marriage'," said Ingrid.
"She said, 'it was the people around my husband', and I thought to myself 'it wasn't Camilla? You've been complaining and complaining about her all these years'."
The author continued: "But she changed tact, and said it was the environment in which keeping a royal marriage together, you've got to be very strong, and probably far more mature than she was."
When asked about Queen Camilla stepping up for King Charles since his cancer diagnosis, Ingrid hailed her for taking on extra duties.
"She led them into King Constantine's memorial service, but it was different on Easter Sunday and people really respect her," said the expert.
"She was 50 when she got into this family and now she's 76. Unless you're born into it, it's quite hard, the Windsors have massive energy.
"Charles as a young man used to run everywhere, Prince Philip would run everywhere.
"Camilla doesn't have that kind of energy, and it really takes it out of her and I think a lot of people have a lot of respect for her."

I don't believe for a second that Diana said that to her. At all.
Ditto
She did have meeting and "private" relationships with journalists, such as Richard Kay.
Interesting... I do. At first, though, I thought she was going to name the nanny. Do you remember when Diana made that loud comment at some gathering about 'sorry about losing the baby', referring to an alleged abortion that the nanny was supposed to have had? Diana was no saint. She vied for the attention, and was too immature to understand her role in that marriage, which was to support her husband, the future monarch. She failed at that miserably. She also lied to Charles about 'loving country life', which she actually hated. Had she been honest, I doubt he would have married her, despite the pressure from his grandmother and hers.
I have read some where years ago Diana said she didn't blame Camilla and she was very greatfull to her? True or not that's what was reported??
Easy for her to “ recall” this revelation which can’t be emphatically denied!
AT 75 it's best to try to be happy and live in the present.
totally agree
totally agree too
they are adulterers. They deserve each other.
Because tomorrows not promised..make hey hayhay..while the sun shines 💯🥳🤣
I’m 71 and totally agree, inside our home has to have peace and enjoyment. Forgive others, and yourself and go forward. No one wants to have chaos in our later years. You know, just shut the door, keep crazy out.
Continued Healing and Prayers to The King and The Princess of Wales. 😊💖🙏🇺🇸💖🙏
amen
Yes, may THE CHEATERS live to reap what they have sown.
Charles and Camilla seem to be great friends. That is the key to a happy marriage & a happy life.
@greed. re@l friendship. unlike those other ones, where little h@wwy gets so exploited it exceeds definition.
Was the glue between my spouse and I for over 35 years.
But he vowed before God to be faithful to Diana alone. God will hold him to that and when he calls him to account at the judgement seat the moment after he dies he will begin to learn the awful solemnity of breaking your vows and commiting adultery.
@@jonathanbuss7538 Do you have the same judgement of Diana? She was also unfaithful only with multiple men and one of them was married to another woman at the time. I'm not a perfect person nor have I lived a perfect life. If I have any hope of God forgiving my transgressions, I believe I must forgive other people of theirs first. Do you agree?
Charles had hoped that he & Diana could make their marriage work if they started as friends
There is also another overlooked facet why Prince William and Princess Catherine might get along so well: They were study-buddies. University-friendships are generally very strong and last often for a life-time. People, who fall in love with fellow-students in that time period, always have a baseline of seeing one another as equals. There are similarities in minds and values. Catherine was not just a princess coming in from a country estate or a fox-hunt gathering. William and Catherine shared formative experiences together in their Alma Mater, surrounded by equally like-minded friends.
Such a good point!😊
Catherine please.

I've heard Camilla has osteopenia or osteoarthritis and a lot of spinal pain so really, she is doing an extraordinary job at stepping up and helping through this time.
My mother has that, much worse than Camilla. Yet she cared for my father during the last years of his life. My father was a real man, he didn't need a woman to keep telling him how good he was doing. Spineless men like Charles make me puke.
Diana was very young and let down by what was A very self centered man at the time .!
She should not be here
@@maralynmitchell8261 Diana was raised in the royal/aristocrat circles, she knew what she was getting into AND what she was doing. Charles also was disappointed by Diana's childish behaviors and her many affairs with many men that finally drove him back to his one true love so suck it up sugar-clown and get a real J-O-B.
She gets the best private healthcare money can buy. Not like us plebs😂😂
People don't understand that when two souls find each other there is nothing can separate them. Charles always looked so unhappy around Diana
So he should have left Diana alone instead of pretending he was in love "whatever love means" with her. She was his brood mare. Camilla was fine with that as she had him on the side for decades. This article is ridiculous. Yeah, coupled with the harsh environment of the Palace plus her indifferent, mean spouse and last but not least, that woman, she didn't have a chance at a happy marriage.
Charles was forced for the firm and from his mother get a human victim for breeding.
@@sushmitasennviktoria The firm and his Mother??!!!! How about the public??? The demand on Prince Charles and expectations from the public and certainly the Press to marry and to provide an heir was absolutely huge!!! I remember that time very well, and the public never doubted then that he must marry a virgin too. Times have changed…. But that was never doubted then that should be at all.
@@ramblinrose960 yes, but he was the stallion of the crown.....they were both victims
OMG if he was so in loved Why did Camilla got married? Why didnt charles abdicatie and get married with Camilla ?
Arranged marriages hardy ever work Now he is married for love and it shows Sadly Diana never found it.
Actually, you are so mistaken! Arranged marriages outlast love matches more than 10 to one. I think being duty bound as one of the tenets is a factor. But whatever the reason the stats are quite interesting.
I was so sad for what happened to Diana if she was here today a lot of things would b different
@@bellepierre24You’ve neglected to explain why arranged marriages last 10x longer than love matches. Is it because divorce is never allowed? Are the arranged marriages happy and satisfying to both husband and wife? Are the marriages loveless? Are they business arrangements? Do the souses have to give up hope for a love match to satisfy the demands of the family? Implying the arranged marriages last long because they are wholly wonderful is not enough.
But Diana did find love, however she did not live long enough for it to become established enough to allow the public into it. I'm happy and relieved for her that she did finally find it since that was something she always wanted. They would have been a good match because they were both healers. He healed bodies and she healed spirits and hearts. If their relationship had been further along, I could see them becoming a powerful world class team for causes. Losing her is a terrible loss for us all. She was a very special person.
@@Brembelia I don't think this was an "arranged marriage" I think this was a deranged marriage! Much like "lady" Diana herself!! She had been dreaming about marrying Charles since her childhood according to her family and friends. She meets Charles again after growing up around him a bit. They date a few times and are engaged when she is 19 but barely know each other however according to society Diana is an adult. Where was the public out-cry back then? At 20 they are married. By 21 she is a mother and yet shows no signs of "joining in" with the royal family but isn't this what Diana wanted? Diana just wanted to do things her own way. There is no I in team work. As her behavior becomes more than erratic Charles tries to help and so does the queen who so often reaches out. Diana does not want to have therapy. Yet she gave speeches about mental health. Charles turns to his friend Camilla for advice and those old feelings start to resurface. Diana turns on everyone including her own mother and family and staff and newcomers such as Sophie and friends. I honestly think Charles needed more help than the disturbed Diana. Diana wanted more attention and revenge and pity. When her and Andrew Morton wrote a book about Charles everything went south! What husband could trust his own wife who is plotting against him? Diana admitted to cheating first but at this point Diana had lost Charles. Married boyfriends coming back to Kensington Palace didn't help much and constantly going after the variety of men was more than Diana just being "lonely". She was never shy Di - she was Sly Di and vulgar... Go! Just go!
Charles needed mothering and Camilla knows how to do that with Charles. They're compatible and Diana and Charles were definitely Not compatible. Diana needed parenting and nuturing too and Charles couldn't do that. The rules for royalty prevented Charles and Camilla from marrying initially, and that was just wrong. Charles never should have married Diana. She should have been a woman who found the right kind of man for her and she'd most likely be alive today and happy. She was too young to decide whom to marry.
Diana was mislead thinking it would be her fairytale come true marrying him. She did not know the reality of her role in this union, just as PC didn't realize how things would end for her and just think...she stayed in her place and played the role for the longest. Thank goodness Meg got away. How sad the lives of these strong beautiful women.
@@search4answers849 Please, don't compare the late Princess Diana with Meghan. There are absolutely no points of comparison between the two.
Dianna was very high maintenance, especially emotionally to compensate for her unsatisfied childhood from parents' divorce.
@@mzmxx I agree. She had a very sad childhood.
Charles and Diana were a mismatch. That may be why they both saw the marriage as a vehicle to promote themself, individually rather than as a team. That sort of marriage can be successful if both parties are discrete, honest with and don't compete with the other.
They needed to have a true friendship to pull off a marriage of arrangement like that I think.
A true friendship or dedicated to respecting their agreement.
Charles did it for Mummy and Country. He was doing his duty. Diana did it because ... she was not destined to be anything else. She was uneducated and a nutter. Just like Harry.
Charles didn’t need to promote himself, he was, before Lady Diana decided on an ARRANGED MARRIAGE with him, deeply popular and much loved! He was our heartthrob, crowds were at all his events, he was the one we wanted to see!! Diana was clearly deeply needy (her mother upped and left with her lover to go live in Australia when Diana was Five years old, and apparently Diana never got over it (who would)! It was Diana who hogged the lime light, who didn’t support her husband, who didn’t respect that HE was the royal not her!! I hated watching her behaviour taking the lime light, and yes she was loved, but she promoted and expected that. Watching Camilla and Catherine (and Prince Philip) you see how they promoted, honoured and respected their Royal spouse (Camilla and Catherine still do of course). Each one not making it about them but about their Royal spouse and about the event!! But Diana always made any event about her! She needed the adoration, and her side eyes wasn’t imo shyness, it was in her case slyness! I saw through her from the beginning. Charles looked shell shocked most of the time with Diana yards and more away from him gathering the crowds around her in walk abouts. Making it about her! Imagine seeing Meghan doing that as she would of course, just like Diana! The exhibition she made of herself in India sitting alone like the poor little victim, side eyes, crying, sad!! Well she was at the time also engaged in numerous affairs!! Some with married men! Some she declared she adored!! What a manipulator!! And there was Charles trying to get on with his official duties on that official visit to India, and the very reason they were there!!! But Diana made it all about her, as usual! Diana promoting herself as usual rather than the Monarchy!!! And all that also affected those boys of hers, she never thought of that, she never stopped to think how will this affect our boys in the future! I was sad she died though, no one would wish that.
She was a virgin who never had any other boyfriends.
It’s obvious that they make each other very happy. ❤
Charles has been happy since he got back together with Camilla. It was sad that he had to marry Diana.
yes, I read that at the time, her grandmother Lady Fermoy and the Queen Mother contrived it....and the rest they say is history
@@annmcdonald6180 The Queen Mother was fond of interfering in other peoples lives.
I'm sure it wasn't the only marriage of convenience nor will it be the last. Sometimes they work out. Sometimes they don't. I'm glad to see Charles and Camilla together now. They seem happy and well suited.
But Diana is Dead for gods sake
@@afafakrawi8793 We all know Diana died. What's your point?
A loving husband is proud of his wife's beauty, not put off by the attention she gets.
Charles did not have the most steadying of upbringings and neither did Diana. They were both lacking the same foundation and couldn't give it to each other. On the other hand, the US president JFK had a stable upbringing, if rather competitive. When his wife Jackie, out shown him ( which was often), he had the smarts to take it as a comment on his choice of wife . When, on a state visit to France, she charmed DeGaulle and all the French.( She was fluent in French). At the state dinner. His first words were , " Hello, I am the man who accompanied Jackie Kennedy to France". Grace under pressure. He had the room in his hand after that very wise remark.
Ya know we hated her but that marriage with Diana wasn’t meant to be. When you love someone you just love that person so he’s happy hopefully Diana would have found that too. I’m sorry she’s gone though
No, not "we". Some people can see good souls.

Camilla is honest supports Charles is mature .she does not self promote does not demand attention and admiration no wonder their marriage is a success
Fascinating insight into Diana’s last thoughts on her marriage! Sometimes when people are angry after a break up, the want someone to blame, as anger dissolves, the real reasons come out.
Do you really believe what ingrid Seward says and now Diana is dead because of it so convenient
Nobody knows what happens behind doors in a marriage. diana was very unhappy at althrop and she had very bad mood swings she had bulimia which we knew nothing about half way through meal getting up going to the bathroom sticking your fingers down your throat until your sick the in india on the seat in front of the tajmahal prince charles was at a commonwealth meeting so she went there on her own he didn't leave her he couldn't be there as he had a prior engagement it was a marriage that should never have happened but we got william so that was good I liked diana but I couldn't have lived with her I just wish people would stop using her for money and let her rest in peace and that includes her son in america and her brother in england enough is enough
Diana was a nutcase ... and Harry inherited it.
It seems that Diana brought her insecurity with her when she married Charles. She was ill prepared for what she was agreeing to. I think both she and Charles have a lot of regrets. The saving grace of their marriage is that it produced William.
@@Lovesapuzzle And Harry…I doubt Diana would thank you for leaving him out.
@@Lovesapuzzleagree. 2 bad, they didn’t use birth control after William.
@@Taluta394 I'm thinking they wanted a second child. Had Diana lived, I think Harry would have grown into a very different person than he did.
Diana NEVER loved Charles and vice versa. It was an arranged marriage. The DIVORCE was good for both of them BUT just like other famous rich people there are limited numbers of eligible rich people to meet. It was a shame that Diana died in Paris but not with the one she was thinking of. Harry REFUSED to speak to Diana that evening and that TANTRUM of Spoilt Brat was not fair. Harry blames everyone except himself but HE gave the last impression to Diana that he didn't like her. THAT IS WHY HARRY IS SO OBSESSED = GUILT!
EXACTLY
It didn't help that neither of the boys had seen Diana for 3 months, Diana went away to France just as William and Harry came back from a skiing holiday with their father
He was just a boy.
@@littlelion2544 NOT NOW!!!! But keeps acting as a boy forever!!!
Also her last words were apparently about Dodi Not her children
I'm American and til recently didn't like Camilla and Charles for no particular reason. Now I'm glad they're married and that Camilla is receiving positive press for being a good person. She surely paid her dues. And markle whines about HER negative press? Maybe she should start being a good person. That way people would stop seeing how awful she is.
totally agree with you
I think you're right. Laughter is the best glue to keep love strong in a marriage. My husband and I love and laugh together everyday. He's my best friend and I could not be more in love ❤ we're in our 50s and still going strong
All the very best of wishes to you and your husband. May you have many more years of love and laughter. I had what you have for almost 45 years until my husband passed away . I still miss him and what we had so I tell others to cherish every moment.❤️💐🫂
We have been married, 60 years this year, are both in our 80s and laugh all the time. People say we are the funniest couple they know, quite a compliment, I think?😉😉
Harry and princess diana where are so much alike. Diana would always talk bad about Charles always Harry.Does the same darn think look at his book
Harry is a nutter, just like his mum.
This is true. Harry has all the negatives of Diana and William has the positives.
Camilla has brought Charles so much happiness, they just fit! They are so well suited to each other!
Too bad she gave sadness to others
@@isabeltome9762Too bad….learn to spell
@ruthhogg6423 thank you
A supportive spouse is heaven on earth.
Nobody knows what goes on in a marriage. Charles and Diana were a mismatch from the start. However, I will say this: King Charles has done immense good works through the Prince's Trust and his environmental endeavors etc. and Princess Diana changed the worldwide perception towards AIDS patients (our modern day lepers if you think about it) LITERALLY overnight. She also had the guts to take on the landmine issue, and that was a decision fraught with risk and even death threats towards her. Thus, they are/were each remarkable people in their own way, and I prefer to think of them way rather than dwell on any human failings, which we all have, or what the reasons were behind their divorce.
It is too bad Charles' allegiance is to the WEF and not the Commonwealth.
Good points, well taken.
It's strange that Diana said it wasn't Camilla who broke up the marriage.
when did she say that?
Later on Diana said a lot of things - Charles did love me, not the way I thought he should (?) but he did love me, it was the fault of the grey suits at the Palace, Charles is a good father, I never attempted suicide. Just that she told her closest friends not the millions she had had hanging on her every word - regardless of the truth
Let not forget Diana also thought Charles was in love with the nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke, she was insanely jealous of her.
@@jacqui9176 it was not insane jealousy, she had been misled by Martin Bashir that C was in love with the Nanny
@@glen7318 Way before that interview, she said very loudly at some gathering 'sorry to hear about the loss of your baby' implying that Tiggy had had an abortion. She was jealous of Tiggy's connection to her sons. It WAS insane and unfounded. Diana was deeply troubled and had refused the help Charles sought for her.
They've always loved each other, it's so nice to see my King finally happy, long may you reign sir.❤😊
PC and PW shine because they are authentic and they seek the limelight for others not themselves. To me they dont need the touchie clingy, because they are complicit through the looks they give to each other. Also the laughter and how they mimic each other is very organic.
I’ve always thought a sense of humour is essential, to getting through life’s challenges. My husband was funny, and we laughed a lot. I always see that in both the Royal couples, and Princess Anne, who laughs with the King. That humour is a survival thing, I think!
When you're an emotionally needy person because of your upbringing, you need someone who comes from a balanced and loving family to help you get through life. Two needy people rarely succeed together in relationship - unless their needs and strengths really complement each other. But that is so rare, and it's nobody's fault. It really takes a strong person helping the other, who they hopefully really love. But it must get very tiring for the strong one.
I wish the comparison between CATHERINE & WILLIAM and Harry & Meghan would STOP H&M are hazbeens

Don't believe Meghan & Harry are in love! Business marriage not love!

There's love between Charles and Camilla.
I think they are absolutely lovely together!💕
Diana was very young and immature they should have just left her alone and Camilla encouraged it For him to have an heir sad they ruined her
And the RF should have let them marry years ago they were meant to be together
Life goes on. Let Hairy live in the past with his mother,,,,,,
I have been team Diana for so long. I think since she married Charles and especially after Diana died. I started to be team Camilla when Meghan and Harry left the royal family and when they started whining about and attacking the royal family. The contrast between Meghan's behavior and Camilla's made me see how well Camilla has behaved over the years, how she endured a lot of the bad press while never fighting back, never speaking out against Diana or against the royal family. I have now come to realize that Diana and Charles were simply wrong and incompatible with one another and in the long run, it is and was better for Charles to be with Camilla, with someone he loves and who loves him.
They are a lovely couple. They radiate love. God bless them and give them many more happy years together.
Ive said from the very beginning Camilla had nothing to do with the marriage breakup. The real reasons were very complicated and for them to be made public would have been very messy so Camilla was made the scapegoat Charles and Camilla have been unjustly persecuted for decades
She and he had everthing to do with his marriage failure to Diana..He wanted to b with Camilla he should have abdicated and his mother should have given Princess Anne the job ...She would have been the best British Queen ever....iMHO
She was no scapegoat! She had a lot to do with the breakdown of their marriage! People can say anything now because Diana is not here to defend herself! Why break someone down to build another person up! Camilla was his mistress before and after Diana and Charles got married! Look at the Documentaries!
@@connieechols2111😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
She’s His Rock and True Love!!❤❤❤❤❤
UGH
It is sad that Diana’s “there were three of us in this marriage” comment will always be in the public’s mind as her view on why the marriage failed (that is: Camilla was the bad guy) when we now know that, over time, Diana had a better perspective and realized that there was a more toxic element: Charles’ staff. I hope that lessons have been learned on that count and that other RF marriages are aware of that pitfall.
I always liked Camilla and I supported Diana but I knew she was not all good the press made of her, and Charles was not as bad as the press made out either.
Diana was too young and immature and she handled things like a very young woman would handle them. I don't think anyone is to blame, I think it was a bad match from the beginning. I believe that Camilla was the love of his life and always will be. At this stage in their personal lives they deserve to be left alone. They suffered too, it wasn't only Diana. I'm convinced that the more insecure one is in their own marriage, the more they hate those who are truly in love. People should be concerned with their own lives and move on and leave Charles and Camilla alone. Camilla is a good wife and a loyal companion to him. He's safe with her, she will never betray him in any way.
She was immature I agree. They were a total miss match. And the age difference 12 years and the fact that diana was a attention seeker it all led to the brake up.
We need to let this go, Diana has.
I loved Diana but now I simply adore Camilla because we have a happy king ❤

You can put words into a dead woman's mouth? More damage limitations by Camilla? Who are you kidding?
Yes, this stuff is damage control / public relations trying to smooth things over and change the story.
It’s still so hard to hear those words in the same sentence that Catherine has cancer it just doesn’t seem possible for such a young woman that is healthy to have to go through. Such a horrible diagnosis. However, unfortunately that’s the world we live in.
when was the world ever free of cancer nad illness?
King Charles has found true love with his Queen. Everyone deserves to find true love. I think it makes him a better and happier man. Her support makes him feel uplifted. How special they are together. To be born into royalty to be the future king leaves no room to pick a career of ones choice. Yes they are well off, but at for King Charles, he is cherishes his Camilla. He deserves to have love and be loved. I find it so precious. I also feel Princess Catherine does the same with Prince William. Prince William and King Charles truly cherish their wives. Prince William is cherishing his children with Princess Catherine. Dawn from Niagara Falls, USA.
@ I am most grateful as a follower to the Royal family what I heard to the news today 🙏❤👑🏴🇬🇧
I haven't listened to this but based on the title I should imagine it's because they were completely incompatible, absolutely nothing in common, they are certainly not any fairytale, it's Charles and Camilla who are the fairytale, against all the odds they are together and on the same page, the best of friends
Like I’ve said many times Diana chopped & changed her reasons for hating Charles to suit her narrative at the time very much like her daughter in law to Narcissists they would never have got on. And I do not believe Charles was jealous I believe he was perplexed that she had to make everything a popularity contest much like Meghan, she was once taken aside by the old Duke and told that being a member of the Royal Family was not a popularity contest their purpose was to support the Monarch not upstage it but Diana never got it if the family got some good press she would have to come out of the woodwork and do or say something to upset every thing.
You would think that this narrative is dead and buried,like Diana.
In my opinion, the Common Wealth and the world love and cherish Princess Catherine as much, if not more than Princess Diana.
Catherine is a much better balanced person, no apparent hang-ups or jealousies.
Sorry, but I never loved Diana. I may have felt sorry for her having mental health issues, but she always came across as very manipulate.
@@nzlander4653 When the royal 'romance ' started in 1980, I was dating my prince.

And indeed Diana has very cold stare in this photo, and in many later ones, where she is not posing sad for paps.
@@nretik nonsense
@@Flibbles Here here!!
Mistakes indeed happen. Diana and Charles have ended. Diana was naive. I take it as a lesson to not be 19 and be married to a man whom I am barely familiar with.
At 19, that was probably the best that Diana could hope to achieve. She was uneducated and, as we later found out, she was a nutter.
They both had too much pressure from their families
Diana inherited 50,000 pounds at 17yrs - she bought a 4 bedroom apartment near Sloane Square, had 3 flat mates paying her rent & she had 2 part time jobs - she could be very, very canny - definitely not a backward teenager

dont be silly. Camilla is queen consort
@@glen7318 Sometimes people don't understand 'consort' versus 'monarch' after having been blessed with the long reign of Queen Elizabeth II. ALL 'queens' after Victoria were 'consorts.' Victoria was the last female monarch before Elizabeth. So, Edward's Alexandria, George's (V) Mary, George's (VI) Elizabeth were all 'consorts' as they were the wives of the monarchs. Queen Camilla is an outstanding support to her husband, Charles. It is regrettable that they were not allowed to marry earlier on in their relationship. That level of love is rare and wonderful. LONG LIVE THE KING!
At 81, those of us who were there at the time, knew the real story.
Absolutely, we do. Camilla and Charles cheated on Diana and cheated her out of her position.
I've always liked Camilla!
Marriage is a sacred union between two individuals who commit to love, support, and cherish each other for a lifetime. A wedding is a joyous celebration of this commitment, bringing together family and friends to witness and celebrate the beginning of a new chapter in the couple's lives.

the iseal, not always possible..
Camilla and Charles both cheated to be together. Diana also cheated. I never liked Camilla until Harry and his wife. I think Camilla is a great comfort to Charles after all Harrys antics.
They are so in love -Still after all this time. One only has to watch to see. Bless them. 👑💗🇦🇺
Diana only said 3 in the marriage she never said she hated her.
Perhaps at 30 he shouldn’t have married a 19 year old! Head of the church? Yet his vows meant nothing.
The gentleman conducting the interview could really use a little help to sharpen up his diction. I had to turn on captions to understand him, and even they struggled to catch everything he said. Ms Seward on the other hand was crystal clear. It's not just the regional accent, it's the mumbling and swallowing bits of words that make it difficult.
Diana wasnt the miss goody two shoes she made out to be.
Camilla and Charles were meant to be together ! Since they were teenagers the queen didn't want ger to be with her ! 😊
nonsense. they did not meet when they were teenagers
@@glen7318 please stop putting people down! All your replies are the same glen. Just saying the opposite and disagreeing with everyone! You are predictable.
@@glen7318 Check again. Late teens. They were both part of the horse-y set.
PRINCESS DIANA WAS TO YOUNG FOR THE ROLE I THINK SHE RELIZED IT ,
Diana had at least 5 lovers!
shock horror.
And caused 2 marriage break ups.
Diana couldn't keep her britches up
dont be nasty, lying and vulgar
Neither could Charles and Camilla!
.Diana had MANY affairs, Charles only with his "true love"
@userID-ne9qo That is not true! Charles had more affairs too! It really doesn't matter, marriage doesn't mean anything! So he lied when he took his vows! Diana I think would never had cheated if she was being loved at home!
@@connieechols2111 you fail to understand...that marriage was out of convincience Virgin to bear the Heirs and that was it..
Camilla is doing a great job
Absolutely a mismatch!
You don’t have to destroy Princess Diana’s legacy and memory to promote Camilla…
Thank You! That is so true! Diana was a good person! Camilla and Charles know how they treated Diana! She claimed to be Diana's friend and all the time sleeping with her husband!
No, her legacy stays the same. Camilla and Charles cheating was traumatic for Diana. I think Diana would be doing a great job today, too.
"It was an arranged marriage between two very prominent houses: the Spencers and the Windsors. The Spencer ancestral line boasts more blue-blood heritage than the RF. Diana, being naive, truly believed that Charles loved her as she loved him. The significant age difference played a major role. Camilla, being Charles's contemporary and within his social circle, though not as aristocratic as Diana, shared more commonalities with him. Diana came to realize this after the divorce. There were photographs capturing their meetings and warm greetings with kisses. While Diana and Charles both exhibited spite during their marriage, Diana matured and came to understand their incompatibility (despite Charles inferiority/jealousy complex with her persona with the public). William acknowledges this, but Harry, sheltered from their arguments and petty conflicts, relies on advice from his therapist and Meghan. William harbors love for his father and appreciates Camilla for making him happy. Harry just wants to bring up bad memories that he thinks happened & wants to punish his father - even though said father loves him & raised him to be the person he was before Meghan came on the scene."
As Diana later commented - I read too many Barbara Cartland books
@@susanlockyer1192 when did she say this? I've read many bios of Diana and never come across any mention of her saying this
They really do look so happy all the time. Diana was way too young to be married. I am happy they had William.
You contradicted yourself.
why?
@@glen7318 Stop posting If you don't respect people's opinions, glen. You do this all the time. You just want to disagree and say the opposite. You are predictable. Re-read your posts - If someone says up you say no.
You can say anything about someone after they have died. Who is going to dispute it.
This is what Megain wants..for people to want her instead of Harry...
Should not have married diana,
Well....this is what she wanted so she should step up..don't you think? Also, don't compare Queen Elizabeth to Camilla.
Camilla and Charles were meant to be together and thy finally got to.
He knew camilla would never outshine him.
No, they are equals
@MaryRagland-le8nc exactly 💯 Diana was another level not an old bag
He knew she was happy to support him
No, he now with a women with a stable mind, Diana did not have that.
Finally I found this comments among others that I thought whole world already changed bcos of power of monarchy.
Oh god sell it to the Eskimos. Let Diana rest in peace. You were not her friend you were just an employee to her.
Well Charles never supported Princess Diana … and He was used to being the Center of attention while single. Camilla was always the third person in the marriage bed… Diana didn’t have a chance in this marriage and it never should have been forced on both of them… doomed from the start… 🇨🇦😡
King Charles called the people he love as "beloved", he also calls the Princess of Wales as beloved daughter in law. As for meghan it's "tungsten" 😂😂😂😂
Diana said several times that the 3rd person in her marriage was The Nanny Tiggy
she also said Camilla.... and it was Cam, not Tiggy
Great conversation! Thank you
How the media narrative changes. I remember the headlines and the news, you ripped Camilla apart. Now, you want to change the narrative about Diana after putting her on an unrealistic pedestal, you pull her down. Charles and Diana were not suited but he chose to marry her knowing he loved another woman. Glad he's with someone he is happy with but nauseated with the media coverage.
Yes read that book Patrick J wrote it seems she felt continually the spying on her and the cruel controls but especially the dismissiveness towards Diana’s hard work. She was not lazy.
Will you ever let her rest in peace? Stop gossiping!
Queen Camilla is brilliant and the woman Charles should have married from day 1!!!!
He was forbidden to marry her, years before he married Diana or before Camilla married her husband.
I’m so happy for them as it turns out, they are brilliant together xx The King is so likeable and has much more of a smile on his face. He has become a confident King; love the true royals.
No, keeping a marriage together takes two. Diana was young and used.
They are soulmates, it was circumstances that couldn't be avoided why they couldn't marry when younger. I'm glad he has someone that makes him happy in his old age. Diana had multiple boyfriends, good for her I say but no one slagged her off.
I love Princess Diana and always will… King Charles’ first true love, Queen Camilla, was prohibited by his family. Am glad he has found true love in the end.
Camilla wasn't prohibited - she & Charles had no thoughts of marriage when they first met - they just got on very, very well
Wonderful interview.
Disgusting!!! How dare Ingrid Seward say Diana said this and Diana said that. She's always repeating what she said Diana said. I don't trust her at all! We heard out of Diana's own mouth that there were 3 people in her marriage! If Camilla hadn't interfered, they would still be married, Diana would still have her security, she would be Queen, and she would never been in that car crash!!! Why? Because actions have ripple effects. I would be obsessed with a woman interfering in my marriage, too!
Charles showed his jealousy of Diana’s popularity in Australia on that long ago tour
I DIDN'T like Camilla for a long time, but now I like her and am glad she is there to help the RF in their time of need., let bygones be bygones and carry on. Camilla loves Charles and he loves her, so it is good they are married together, as they should always have been. Diana is in heaven, I am sure she is happy too.I think that despite the magnificent wedding, Charles and Diana were a sad mismatch.
One can say it was the Royal institution that set up the marriage to Diana when he loved Camila the entire time. Camila and Charles have a strong bond. Fate rather it was predetermined or not the story is intriguing. Prayers for the entire Royal family. 🙏🏽
I met King Charles and Diana in the mid 1980s and it was a marriage not meant to be. You can tell when people are not happy together. I am a big fan of King Charles, who if not King, would be a regular guy. HIs interest in the World and people he meets is what makes him a charming, likeable person. I wanted to see him happy and Camilla took care of that. They are perfect together. I only wish I had gotten to meet her, too.
I have so much respect for Queen Camilla, and I'd never have believed I'd say that back in the day (20 + years ago). She really has proven herself to be an excellent Queen and the best choice of Wife for the King. She is so supportive and always has a smile for everyone. I'm glad she's our Queen and those who are still bitter need to take a good hard look at themselves. Leave the past where it is, in the past.
