Totally. "Ouch!" for him
. As far as I know Diana (not that far then), I believe she would have regreted what she said if he had been in that mercedes in Paris. Many people who knew her could tell she really loved him. She did this interview unconscious of what she was actually doing; IMO, a big mistake.
Actually....she did regret that interview. Rosa Monkton had stated she did. She felt like she should have not have done that because of her sons, but at the time she was angry over the Dimbleton interview Charles did. She was very upset over his revelations. Also supposedly by multiple sources, including Burrell (if it was only him....I would not have believed it), she and Charles were on friendly terms in her last months. He would actually stop by her apartments to talk. They were not friends mind you, but they had declared a truce in their war.
I for one was glad to hear that.
It's clear that they didn't like each other really but I don't think Diana personaly attacked Anne. Although I remember that Anne said :"It's not my cup of tea to hold every child". That was totally directed to Diana.
I personally have A LOT of respect for both women. While I don't think Diana ever attacked her personally, Anne took a lot of things personally. It was insulting to Anne that she felt as though her work was ignored while Diana because she was the "fairytale" picture perfect princess had the cameras and everyone exulting her virtues. It also did not help that Princess Anne expected she was going to be named a godparent and she was not. She, as I remember reading, skipped one of the christenings because of that.
Anne has done very well for the "firm" in the sense she has taken her charity work very seriously. She is very involved. She also must be commended for her raising of her children, both turned out pretty good. There have been no real scandals. I also must note that I believe that a lot of the issues that Harry and William had would have been dealt with a lot differently or not occured at all had Diana lived. She was a wonderful mother and her son clearly adore her.
In Diana's case, I believe it was an evolution on her charities. At first, she did it because it was the job of a royal and she was expected to do it. I think after awhile she found it to be rather therapeutic and took enjoyment in it. I think that is why at first she took on things she was more a letterhead for. Later on you notice her appearances at those started to drop off until she left completely when she lost her HRH title.
did princess anne go to any of the diana tributes during the anniversary of her death. i read that the two were so different they really didn't get along.anne being upset that diana didn't allow her to be godmother to either of her sons.what has been anne's reaction to diana's death and the aftermath?i saw princess anne standing with the rest of the royal family at diana's funeral when her casket went by, anne looked shocked at the tragedy.
My understanding is she did attend the 10 year memorial at the church Her daughter, her son, and her ex husband did as well. Princess Anne did keep people guessing though because it was NEVER listed on her official engagement list.
It has been said well personally she didn't care for Diana. She respected her as a mother and out of respect for her nephews she went.
