Your post really hits the nail on the head. Charles always came across as tongue tied and so aware of not saying the wrong thing. I have always believed that Diana fell in love with The Prince of Wales and was shocked to find that along with the title, came the man who owned it.
Skydragon and Ysbel. She might had fall in love with the Prince of Wales and not the MAN. But when a mental sickness takes over - a person reacts to things in a way that is not their true personality. And whatever the reason for her bulemia(sp?) after that sickness came about she was not the jolly, young girl that Prince Charles was just starting to fall in love with. And on her part how could she (trust) love someone who says to a reporter "whatever loves means". It must have been hard for both of them.
What I think us Diana fans are saying is the relationship between them was never given a chance in my opinion mainly because of press intrusion and just plainly of all the tragic circumstances all coming together. It had a lot of problems on both sides from the beginning. And I think they both wanted it to work. Prince Charles said that his bride needed to be the right person for the job and Diana's own childhood nanny said that when she met Diana for the first time Diana told her outright that she would only married for love and not divorce. But to me, Diana could not deal with the pressure-bulemia started-and the fights began. It takes a very special man to deal with a wife with mental illness (unfortunely Charles didn't know what to do) and Diana not taking medicine and listening to shrinks until ten years in to the marriage was not soon enough. I think the letter that she gave Burrell about Tiggy shows to me that when Diana was under a lot of pressure, she saw things through mental illness and focus on Prince Charles personal woman relationships. But, to me it wasn't the intellect that help break down the relationship, because people can really marry opposites and still grown to love one another. My 26 year marriage is proof to me!!!
What going on with the inquest today?
