I always knew I would never be the next queen, put it that way."I've tried everything," says Elizabeth Debicki's Princess Diana on the new season of The Crown, explaining why she has decided to help journalist Andrew Morton write a book about her. but at least when I finish my, as I see it, my 12 or 15 years as Princess of Wales, I don’t see it as any longer, funny enough. “I am performing a duty as the Princess of Wales. Camilla denied it, but Diana held her ground-finally standing up to the other woman who wedged herself in Diana’s marriage.
Don’t treat me like an idiot.’”įaced with damning evidence about Charles’s affair with Camilla, Diana finally confronted her at a private birthday party. “I said, ‘Camilla, I’d just like you to know that I know exactly what’s going on.’ And she said, ‘I don’t know what you’re talking about.’ And I said, ‘I know what’s going on between you and Charles, and I just want you to know that. Soon after, she made headlines for her signature stigma-shattering move: shaking an AIDS patient’s hand without gloves. In the documentary, she describes the day she decided to no longer be a meek sidekick, but a celebrity who could change the world.
Thanks to her natural warmth and charm, Diana’s nickname was the People’s Princess. You’ve been chosen to this position, so you must adapt to it and stop fighting it.’ And I knew I could do it, if I chose a different angle.” You’ve got to change it right round, with this publicity. “I remember saying to myself, ‘Right, Diana. Bearing in my mind I was carrying a child.” And he said, ‘I’m not going to listen, you are always doing this to me, I’m going riding now.’ So I threw myself down the stairs. Charles said I was crying wolf, and I said I just felt so desperate, and I was crying my eyes out. Overwhelmed by royal life and wrecked with insecurity over Charles’s feelings for Camilla Parker Bowles (Diana claimed to catch him wearing cuff links that Camilla gave him, and spotted a photo of her in his diary), she turned to bulimia to cope. On the outside, Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s honeymoon was a storybook one: They split their time between a yacht and the castle at Balmoral in the Scottish Highlands.
“I remember crying my heart out on my honeymoon.” On her wedding day, she felt more like a sacrificial lamb rather than a blushing bride. Only 19 years old when she married Prince Charles, Diana became a global celebrity overnight-and, according to her, was woefully unprepared and unsupported.
