I suggest looking no further than the previous 2 generations to find the roots to all of their misery!
Would you care to elaborate on that??
Lets,
just for fun, analyse the protagonists
1.
HM The Queen
Thrown into the role of sovereign at a young age when her children were still
toddlers. She had not expected to be queen for a number of years and had
to juggle the duties of a mother with those of Queen.
2.
HRH Prince Phillip
The youngest child of disfunctional parents who separated when he was still
a child. Made a career of the Royal Navy which he was forced to give up
when his father-in-laws health began to fail.
3.
HM The Queen Mother
A woman who became bitter when her husband died young and forever after
blamed her sister in law the Duchess of Windsor despite the fact that her
husband was a chain smoker.
4.
Earl Mountbatten of Burma
The machinations of this man are probably more to blame than anyone. He
was the one who, firstly, pushed Charles towards his own granddaughter &
then told him that Camilla was OK to sleep with but that he couldn't marry her
5.
The Spencers
This family have been determined to have one of their own as Princess of
Wales for centuries. With the help of Lady Fermoy, who had the ear of HM
The Queen Mother, nothing was going to stop them this time.
