Diana was none of those things. She was a sweet girl. If she became neurotic, he drove her to it. How would you like to be married to someone who loved someone else and told that person he still loved her on YOUR WEDDING DAY??????
Diana was a tramp. Case closed.

That is the tragedy that you get when, in this day and age, you treat the marriage of two human beings as if the marriage was analogous to the breeding of the Queen's pet corgis.
Prince Charles and Prince William are truly cursed by the accident of their birth.
Charles had the misfortune of falling in love with a woman that was not a virgin and therefore verbotten.
William may have the future misfortune of falling in love with a woman who is Catholic or Jewish or whose blood is not blue enough and therefore also verbotten.
Diana has been quoted at saying that, from an early age, she decided to stay "pure" as she was on the short list of possible marriage partners for Charles, a much older man.
"Love" had very little to do with the Charles-Diana marriage.
Charles and Diana were paired up like two of the Queen's corgi dogs and then expected to mate and breed and pop out an "heir and a spare". You shouldn't treat humans like that but Great Britain does.
If a British Prince is true to his heart and marries a verbotten woman, he is branded a traitor who has turned his back on his "duty".
If a British Prince is untrue to his heart and marries an "acceptable" woman, he is branded a scoundrel if he does not "love" the woman that was picked out for him.
Unless a British Prince is fortunate enough to truly fall in love with an "acceptable" woman, that Prince has the unfortunate choice of either living his life as a free human being branded as traitor to his "duty" or living his life in a loveless marriage.
Ideally, Charles should have renounced his rights to the throne to marry the woman he loved, regardless of her virginity status, and Diana should not have played the role of Royal breeding stock when she was informed on her wedding day that her future husband was in love with sombody else.
BUMP!
I have very little sympathy for Royals in general but even less for Charles.
Dianna was sacrificed for the vanity of the British Royalty. Charles couldn't find himself disposed to save her from the treatment he dealt her. In the end her misery consumed her and she pursued what solace she could outside of the Royal family since she apparently found no comfort within it.
Tragically sad. Still, it was unnecessary.
Charles will be judged simply by the British people's love of Dianna. Whether this is fair or unfair, it will be his legacy and more than likely cost him the throne.
I used to be very apathetic about the story of their relationship, but after having read what many British FReepers have shared regarding this ongoing disaster, I have become very disdainful of Charles and the whole situation.
My hope is that the British Royal line will find itself "renewed" with Prince William. At the very least I hope that will bring some satisfaction to our British friends and allies.
