Princess Diana Lovingly Sits On Prince Charles’ Lap, Kissed By Heir In Photo

Princess Diana and Prince Charles were not very affectionate towards each other in public. In fact, some of their public displays of affection seem forced.

But there are also those rare moments wherein they seemed happy and in love. However, what the public didn’t know was their relationship was already struggling.

In an unearthed photo, Princess Diana is sitting on Prince Charles’ lap while at a gathering. She is smiling from ear to ear, and her left shoulder is placed on top of Prince Charles’ shoulder.

Prince Charles also looks very happy in the snap. He is grinning from ear to ear while cradling his wife. His right arm is wrapped around Princess Diana’s waist, and he is holding a can of soda in his other hand.

The Prince and Princess of Wales are not looking into each other’s eyes. But they seemed genuinely happy in the picture.

In another throwback photo, Prince Charles and Princess Diana are at an engagement. They are sitting on the stage in front of thousands of people when Prince Charles suddenly leaned in to kiss his wife’s hand. But during this time, Prince Charles was already having an affair with Camilla Parker Bowles.

To make things worse, Princess Diana knew that Prince Charles was not faithful to her. But when she asked the Queen and the other members of the royal family about the heir to the throne’s infidelity, they seemingly shielded her from the truth.

And things just got even worse from there. In 1995, three years after Prince Charles and Princess Diana separated, the late royal told Martin Bashir that her marriage to the future King became a bit too crowded because of Camilla. She also said that Prince Charles may not be fit to be the next head of the monarchy.

Princess Diana’s statements angered the Queen and the other royals. And this became the reason for their divorce to be finalized.
