Why Charles and Diana's marriage was immediately doomed to failure: what the prince said the night before their wedding

The love story of King Charles and the late Princess Diana, which was discussed in all the media four decades ago, turned out to be a tragic ending. Their wedding was the beginning of a long-lasting drama full of betrayal, disappointment, and public scandals. If you know all the background, there is no doubt that the dukes' romance was doomed to failure from the very beginning.

Lady Di was not used to looking for falsehood in her feelings, but the actions of the ruling king of Great Britain disappointed many people. Diana learned about Charles's true attitude to herself before the ceremony in 1981, writes OK! with reference to the ITV biopic "Interview with Diana: Revenge of the Princess".

The filmmakers managed to interview the princess's astrologer Penny Thornton, with whom she was very close. After the wedding, the British favorite was full of pain and disappointment, so she shared it with her friend.

"One of the most shocking things Diana told me was that on the night before the wedding, Charles told her he didn't love her. And it was horrible to do that to your fiancée," Penny Thornton recalled.

Few people mention this fact when talking about the failed marriage of the parents of Princes William and Harry. It is generally believed that the feelings between them faded after the birth of their children and the betrayal of the future king.

However, according to eyewitness accounts of the events of those days, Charles knew for sure on the way to the crown that his feelings would never be as strong as Diana's. This confession even made Lady Dee wonder if she needed such a family.

"I think Charles didn't want to go to the wedding with false intentions. He wanted to get back at her, and it was devastating for Diana. She didn't want to go to the wedding at that moment. She was thinking about it," the friend of the deceased princess added.

In 1996, Charles and Diana officially divorced, and their love story finally turned into a tragedy that was discussed for many years around the world.
