The fairy tale romance between Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer captivated the world in 1981, drawing in 750 million viewers for their lavish wedding. However, behind the facade, cracks began to show. Diana, barely out of her teens, married Charles after a whirlwind courtship, only to be told the night before their wedding that he wasn’t in love with her.
Despite the revelation, Diana went down the aisle and became the beloved Princess of Wales. However, the marriage was far from blissful. Charles’ heart belonged to Camilla Parker Bowles. Despite having two boys, William and Harry, their relationship worsened.
In 1992, their marriage officially ended, though they remained legally married until 1996. Diana’s tragic death in 1997 marked the end of an era. Eight years later, Charles married Camilla, the woman he had always loved. The fairy tale had ended, leaving behind a legacy of shattered illusions and lost dreams.
