Charles wanted to be with Camilla at all costs and let nothing stand in his way. Diana may have had her faults but she was collateral. No wonder her boy’s a head case now. |
+1 to her being collateral damage. I can't imagine marrying at 19 much less marrying the 32 yo heir to the British throne. Wow. |
I don't think they hated her as much as considered her dumb. God knows fidelity in marriage has never been a requirement in these circles and Diana knew that better than anyone. They probably expected them to come to a civilized arrangement where each was free to pursue their romantic interests but performed a public part when the right occasion required. This was very much the setup with the British aristocrats of her generation - there are so many examples, it's hard to find a normal family in these circles. And let's not forget that Diana started cheating on Charles too pretty early into the marriage. I don't think Charles' revenge killed her. Her own bad choices killed her. It's a shame that she died so young. But she wasn't a victim. |
History will draw great parallels between Diana and Meghan.
And I know by writing that out I rose the blood pressure of the keyboard warriors who no doubt are furiously typing away as soon as they finish reading this comment, but I think it's true. Obviously very different people and very different situations, but also some undeniable parallels. It'll make for an amazing season of The Crown one day... and I'm only half-joking. |
Yep, agreed and I'm sure the k-warriors are going to be furious. I am curious as to what Meghan will be doing in the future. I thought 2021 would be the year to see a lot of her 'real' work start but obviously with a new baby - not happening. |
So Meghan’s going to take a string of questionable lovers? |
Read: treatment by British press + royal family. |
Only if there is a royal divorce. Until then, not so much. |
Diana was not above using the press when it suited her. |
Or sleeping with married men. |
I mean it's pretty obvious. Both women resist the knowledge that their connection to the royal family is the most interesting thing about them. |
I agree. It is not a surprise Harry was attracted to someone as dramatic and chaotic as his mother. Unfortunately, Meghan is also incapable of loving anyone other than herself. |
She is toxic and he is a victim. |
If you want that type of marriage (no judgement) you don’t marry a 19 year old virgin. |
