Well, what else would you expect them to say on record? About their Dad who will be king and who holds the purse strings? It might even be true. |

Exactly. And in fact, this was indirectly why Harry estranged the royal family. He clearly did NOT trust his dad and he wasn't going to let his new wife eat crap the way his mother did. Sure, Meghan Markle is probably a narcissist herself - doesn't excuse the British Royal Family has done though. |
This is actually pretty much how this news made me feel. Like a PP said, I don't care about the royal family and I don't follow news about them. I don't know the names of William's kids or Harry's kids or really anything about their lives. But even as someone who never follows the tabloids, one thing that sticks in my mind is that Camilla is a mistress and Charles is an adulterer. It's really unfair that after everything Diana went through, she ends up dead and the Rottweiller gets the crown. That just seems...evil and wrong. Like on a gut level. |
| It’s all just so tidy for her isn’t it? |
I think you're partly right. People forget how unstable she acted. The interviews telling the press about Charles and Camilla and releasing info. for pay back at the monarchy. She became her own worse enemy. She was a very needy person who had countless affairs with other creeps who didn't care she was a married princess. Early on she should have let Charles spend time with Camilla. In fact be happy he was out of her hair, and realized she had nothing in common with him. Whereby Camilla did. Enjoyed the status of her position, and stayed married. Charles would have agreed to that. Her constant need to outdo him, and embarrass the family was the beginning of the end for her. Then she ends up with another creep (cheater) who was suppose to be married in a few days to another woman. And she's in a speeding car with idiots while not wearing a seat belt . Plus she should have had her own security detail, but again another one of her poor judgement calls. She thought happiness was with other men instead of herself. She could have continued to outshine Charles in the press, and enjoyed her kids and the life she had. If she had better psychology she would have outsmarted Camilla and Charles, and would have been the queen herself. |
The reviews were pretty bad. |
The no seat belt thing is not true. Feel free to google it. And if Charles expected all of that all he had to do was be honest from the beginning and find someone who is fine with that which he almost certainly could have found amongst his social set. The issue is he clearly wanted to marry someone young and virginal and they’re less likely to go for that. It’s not a personality flaw that she was upset that he changed the terms of the agreement. Also Camilla also thought happiness with other men! Except that other man was her ex husband and then her back burner dude was there when her situation didn’t work out. You’re acting like she has a ton of accomplishments on her own and just decided that it was time to find love. She has done absolutely nothing special with her life besides chase after Andrew Parker Bowles and PC. |

I looked again. Diana was NOT wearing a seat belt. Yes Charles should have been honest in the beginning, but I'm not sure that was his intended plan. I think he planned to be a dutiful husband until he couldn't, or wouldn't. Still Diana had a opulent lifestyle. The public enjoyed her more than Charles which ticked him off. Again non of these nitwit men were worth giving up all that. I think if she would have stayed and lived her son Harry would have better mental health. A lot of domino effect with the poor choices. Also, I agree about Camilla, but Diana had the ball and dropped it. |
Would they stick by a mother who regularly abandoned them to the father you think they despise so that she could swan off with her latest lover? British men, especially, have a saint and slut version of women. Wonder where Diana falls on that scale with her sons. Even the most devoted son would question their mother’s behavior. |
C*nt doesn’t mean what you think it does in the UK. It is highly derogatory here, but not there and does not solely refer to a woman’s vagina. It is routinely used to describe men or women who are jerks. The better word is “Fanny.” |
Or Diana might have lived and continued to make inappropriate choices in men and poking the BRF and her son would have still had issues, torn between his mother and his duty. |
My point was she never should have had affairs, and of course made better choices. Then the outcome I believe would have been much better. For her kids as well. |
I dunno. When your father is on record as not loving your mother — whatever ‘love’ means — that has to screw with your sense of yourself and well-being in some damaging and possibly permanent ways. So the domino effect that Charles’s poor behavior set into play could have been avoided if he had just been honest with a naive teenager about what “marriage” really meant to him. An opulent lifestyle really isn’t an acceptable trade — off in any way — for lying, deceiving and gaslighting a vulnerable teenager. Why do you think Charles “planned to be a dutiful husband “? Was it the gift to Camilla that Diana found on their honeymoon? Allowing Camilla to “befriend” Diana during their courtship and early marriage? Charles deliberately did a lot of twisted, nasty stuff. What “ball” did Diana have? It’s sad that Charles and his handlers sought out Diana just so she could be sacrificed for their plan for heirs. |
