Princess Diana ‘Hurt’ For This Reason While Living With Prince Charles
Princess Diana experienced the worst kind of pain when she was still living in her royal home, a member of her staff claimed.
Royal expert Sarah Bradford wrote in her book “Diana” that the Princess of Wales wanted Prince Charles to give her more attention, but he couldn’t do so because of all of his royal duties.
Princess Diana was also reportedly upset over the fact that no one seemed to take her seriously.
“She was disregarded and that was what hurt more than anything else,” said one of her staff.
The comparison between Princess Diana and Prince Charles’ diaries during her first years as a princess also highlighted the mom of two’s empty life. While Prince Charles was preoccupied with his royal duties, Princess Diana felt that she had nothing to do.
In the book, Bradford said that Princess Diana struggled to accept the word “duty” as explained by Prince Charles’ staff. The author recalled sitting with the Princess of Wales one day and talking about her diary for next year.
“You could write it up: Trooping the Colour, Remembrance Day Service, do a couple of royal tours, you’ll go to Balmoral, you’ll go to Sandringham, you’ll be shooting… you could virtually fill half of that up anyway, and you’ve got to keep on doing it. Unfortunately, your husband, it’s his duty,” she said.
Princess Diana ended up marrying Prince Charles in 1981, but their relationship didn’t last very long. The couple announced their separation 11 years later, and their divorce was finalized in 1996. Princess Diana also gave a shocking tell-all interview with Martin Bashir about the fallout of her and Prince Charles’ marriage.
She famously said that there were three of them in the marriage as a reference to Camilla Parker Bowles. Prince Charles and Camilla had an affair while the future King was still married to the late Princess Diana. When Princess Diana found out, she was devastated.
But during Prince Charles’ interview, he claimed that he only dated Camilla again after he and Princess Diana separated. Prince Charles and Camilla wed in 2005 in a civil ceremony.
