It was the wedding of the century, the fairytale that excited, fired and fascinated people all over the world. For Lady Diana Spencer, it was all her dreams come true; she had married her Prince, the man she loved. They would have beautiful children and live happily ever after.
But it was not quite so simple. The ten years of the marriage of the Prince and Princess of Wales have been fraught with problems that neither could have foreseen. They have had to learn to live together, to adjust to each other's habits, friends and relations; they have been spied on by paparazzi, betrayed by trusted servants, and have had to endure a constant torrent of innuendo, gossip, lies and half-truths in newspapers, magazines and books. At times, it has looked as though the difficulties might prove insurmountable, the strain too much.
Ten years on, Charles and Diana have come through it - as Penny Junor shows so graphically in this book. They have found a new enthusiasm for life, and emerged with a strong, successful partnership. Diana has grown into an elegant and gracious mother of two children, the champion of the underdog, winning hearts everywhere she goes; Charles has found a new role in life, using his position to lead an assault on the threats to the environment.
Penny Junor, the highly acclaimed biographer, has written a frank yet sympathetic account of the marriage of Charles and Diana, based on many years of research. The book is enhanced by a multitude of stunning colour pictures by Jayne Fincher, who has photographed the royal couple since before their marriage. Charles and Diana is a magnificent tribute to their ten years together. Vissza
