I think it was so pretty in Wales. She just looked like a fairy tale Princess!! The collar really set it off.

Wasn't the dress off the peg, too? If that is true, that is so amazing. I am surprised that no one ever showed up in the same outfit!

You know looking back at these photos it is remarkable how young Charles looked. You expected Diana to look that young but never Charles.

He was 33 years old when they married and that seemed so old at the time but he looked much younger than 33. Now I'm several years older than that so 33 seems positively young to me now!

Your soo right Ysbel. Looking back at those pictures Charles looked very young and had a full head of hair back then.

I agree with you that Charles looked younger than 33. He began to look his age during the troubled years of his marriage. It had a wearing affect on him, yet Diana seemed to glow, perhaps due to her manipulation of men and others as she used her position and looks to gain power.

Okay lets not get too carried away with our own opinions of Diana alright.
And yes Charles looked very young and had a full honk of hair on his head during the earlier years of the marriage.

I agree, this one is really nice Avalon .
It's better to see them like this. This summer I'm going to remember Diana of course but I will have a thought for Charles. We have a tendency to forget that she was his wife for 15 years; he must have been destroyed by her death even if they were separated....
