Diana told me real reason her marriage to Charles failed just before she died – it wasn’t Camilla

he just looks so happy around Queen
Camila and you can tell that she’s sort
of giv him a a backbone she is really a
glass half full and he is a glass half
empty and she said that and she makes
him love Clarence House is a really
happy Place full of laughter little bit
chaotic um just I think that they really
have a laugh and I think being well I
know that being Royal
is really separates you from the rest of
the world it’s a very lonely place to be
and if you have someone that’s you’re
not getting on with it’s even more
difficult but
Camila um makes Charles laugh and also
if you think right back she’s so
supportive of him and she’s she Praises
him all the time darling you wonderful
your speech was wonderful um and he
needs that because in his youth he never
had that so and in his dotage I suppose
you could say he’s really being praised
and you can see how happy he is when
he’s meeting the crowds I never seen
Charles look so joyous as he was over
the Easter weekend shaking hands smiling
and every sort of Walkabout he’s done
since he became king he’s been you he
looks a really happy man despite the
fact that he’s obviously not his health
is isn’t that great at the moment you
know you knew Princess Diana you used to
go to Kensington Palace obviously to
have Cups of Tea and have a chat with
her um you obviously have have a lot of
affection for for Diana but why do you
think this this marriage you know say 19
years is is a great achievement why do
you think this has lasted so much longer
or been more successful than than than
his marriage to Diana well the thing
that with Charles and Diana’s marriage
is that they were at loggerheads with
each other and they were both vying for
top spot certainly in the beginning
Charles used to get very very I mean
asked Arthur Edwards from the sun he was
there right from the beginning Charles
used to get very jealous as he probably
wouldn’t use that word but envious of
the fact that everybody wanted to see
his wife and he was like an also ran um
and I think that a lot of their marriage
was like that and Diana was it was a
mismatch she was she was looking for
something that wasn’t there in him and
even after they had William and Harry um
she said that they had a real brief
period of Happiness before she had Harry
and then and and so she had this sort of
Spectre of Camila in her head the whole
time and she was obsessed with it and
that yet when I last spoke to her
shortly before her death I was very
brave anyhow I bought the subject of
Camila up and she said oh it wasn’t
Camila that ruined our marriage and I
thought what I don’t believe what I’m
hearing she said oh it wasn’t Camila it
was the people around my
husband and I thought it wasn’t Camila
and you’ve been complaining complaining
about Camila all the these years but she
changed Haack and decided that it was
the environment in which keeping a royal
marriage together you’ve got to be very
strong and probably far more mature than
she was the interest about talking about
keeping the relationship strong while
you they’ve gone up to balar or they’ve
gone out to Burke H for for a week or so
to kind of relax Camila’s definitely
stepped up and she’s now doing um you
she’s now she’s now the Prince Philip
role you know she’s now the the strength
and stay of of the king um and she’s
when the late Queen was unwell uh Prince
Charles as he was then would would step
in and be the kind of lead of the royal
family but now it’s Camila is the uh is
is the person that would that stands in
for the for for the king what do you
think about that do you think that’s you
glad that Camila is now the kind of the
main focal point of the royal family
when the king’s not there she was all
she she led them into uh uh King
Constantine’s memorial service because
obviously King Charles couldn’t was I
able to go to that because the doctor
said You’ got to you know keep away from
people but it was different on Easter
Sunday and I think people really respect
Kima because she was 50 when she got
into this family she’s now
76 and it’s it’s unless you were born to
it it’s quite hard and they have huge
other winders have massive energy
Charles as a Young Man used to run
everywhere up and down the corridors
Prince philli used to run everywhere and
jump down all those staircases to just
because they were in such big buildings
to get there quicker Camila doesn’t have
that kind of energy and I think it
really takes it out of her and I think
people respect her for what she’s done
do we know um I was thinking about the
crown um do you remember the the pet
names they have for each
other Charles and Camila yeah well they
were called Fred and Gladis oh that was
yeah that was years ago I I when people
have nicknames they usually change don’t
they different phases is I mean we know
that that uh Harry is H and we know that
Megan is Meg but there could be lots of
other things and I do remember can’t
remember what Prince William was Big
Willie I think according to the news of
the world I think that’s I think that’s
and Kate was babykins but people change
the nicknames over time so I don’t know
what Charles and Camila call each other
now darling I think I think so I mean
it’s still a really strong relationship
so and here Charles says it’s really
nice when he says my beloved wife as he
used to say with the queen my beloved
mother absolutely should we take a
little romp through the raw
relationships good or bad that are
happen at the moment ABS um William and
Catherine we haven’t seen them for a
while uh justifiably because Katherine
obviously you know recovering from from
cancer how the last couple of months
have been incredibly stressful for The
Prince and Princess of Wales um they
have a very strong couple but how do you
think they will be coping right now I
think what what the prince and Prince of
worlds are doing right now um is just
concentrating on their family life um
the children go back to school next week
um we’re going to we probably will see
Kate driving them to to school possibly
um I think that they people are just
waiting to see her again but I think
when you see William and Kate together
they have a great relationship they they
they’re quite touchy feely but not over
touchy feely like Megan and Harry are
they don’t cling to each other but
occasionally they they do and they laugh
again I think it’s laughter they laugh
together a lot um and I think that
William is very very supportive of his
wife and I know that Carol Middleton has
said that to friends um he is so
supportive of my daughter and she’s very
sort of proud of proud of him so you
know it’s it’s it’s that Mutual support
they have with each other are you
surprised that there was a ug go pole I
think this week um that despite all the
Ferrari around the the Mother’s Day
photograph that the prince and princess
of Wales are still the two most popular
members of the royal family I mean
they’re not without their crisis
remember a couple of years ago the um
Caribbean tour you know which I was on
was an absolute PR disaster they’re not
without their problems what what is it
about their you know you talk about them
being warm and they are very you know
affectionate to each other in private
and public um what is it about their
relationship that really strikes Accord
with the public I think it’s the warmth
between them and the warmth that they
they you know it’s not fake it’s when
they give out warmth and of course that
Kate is a photographer’s dream she’s so
beautiful and William’s a very good-look
uh young man and I think that uh it’s
it’s natural it’s not you see with with
Megan uh I feel it’s she’s got one
expression the big grin um and I feel
that’s all and that doesn’t feel natural
but with Kate and William they’ve got
all it’s just a warmth they have and it
it sort of exudes to every body around
them which is what the magic that Diana
had however nervous Diana was about
meeting people or going out on her own
the minute she was out there she exuded
this warmth and friendliness and and
that’s what Kate and William do

DIANA revealed the real reason her marriage with Charles ended shortly before death, says a royal expert.

Royal author Ingrid Seward spoke on The Sun’s Royal Exclusives Show about a conversation she had with the late princess before she died.

The royal expert told The Sun’s Royal Editor, Matt Wilkinson, Camilla was not the reason their marriage broke down despite the stories.

“She had this spectre of Camilla in her head the whole time, she was obsessed, yet when I last spoke to her I brought Camilla up, and she said ‘oh it wasn’t Camilla that ruined our marriage’,” said Ingrid.

“She said, ‘it was the people around my husband’, and I thought to myself ‘it wasn’t Camilla? You’ve been complaining and complaining about her all these years’.”

The author continued: “But she changed tact, and said it was the environment in which keeping a royal marriage together, you’ve got to be very strong, and probably far more mature than she was.”

When asked about Queen Camilla stepping up for King Charles since his cancer diagnosis, Ingrid hailed her for taking on extra duties.

“She led them into King Constantine’s memorial service, but it was different on Easter Sunday and people really respect her,” said the expert.

“She was 50 when she got into this family and now she’s 76. Unless you’re born into it, it’s quite hard, the Windsors have massive energy.

“Charles as a young man used to run everywhere, Prince Philip would run everywhere.

“Camilla doesn’t have that kind of energy, and it really takes it out of her and I think a lot of people have a lot of respect for her.”
