This new biography of King Charles isn’t pulling any punches!
We knew the connection between the then-Prince of Wales and Princess Diana was problematic, however it is a new one on us! In line with royal biographer Christopher Andersen‘s explosive new e-book The King: The Lifetime of Charles III, the couple outright loathed each other. He writes:
“Consumed by anger and frustration, each bride and groom individually cried themselves to sleep the night time earlier than the marriage.”
And issues solely obtained worse. In line with the e-book, their fights towards the tip had been so “extremely flamable” that royal safety officers had been afraid of actual violence following. One alternate particularly has our jaws on the ground.
Clearly it’s entered into royal legend by now that Charles by no means truly broke up with Camilla Parker-Bowles. Diana famously mentioned there have been “three of us on this marriage, so it was a bit crowded.” And the long run King’s secret cellphone calls to Camilla, effectively… these are unforgettable in their very own means…

In his e-book, out November 8, Andersen claims a former valet of the royal couple recounted a vicious battle — although a relatively one-sided one. As a lot as Diana’s mood was working sizzling, Charles was ice chilly — frigid, one would possibly say. As a result of this valet claims the topic was his refusal to sleep together with his spouse. Sure, Andersen writes that Charles “had for all intents and functions unilaterally referred to as a halt to their sexual relationship” after the conception of Prince Harry.
Wait, so as soon as he had produced an inheritor and a spare, he was executed along with her? Like she was a receptacle for his royal seed? No surprise she was livid!
The valet recollects a time Diana “actually pursued” Charles “down hallways, up staircases and from room to room,” all of the whereas “hurling epithets and mocking her husband’s obsession with the dreary-looking Camilla.” Ouch, proper?
Nevertheless it was Charles who had the final chuckle. When Diana demanded, “Why received’t you sleep with me?” her husband caustically spat again:
“I don’t know, expensive. I feel I is likely to be homosexual.”
Oof. He needs.
Nevertheless it wasn’t simply Diana who might get upset. Andersen writes about one other time when Charles demanded the respect “that he felt his place warranted,” demanding: “Are you aware who I’m?”
“Diana answered that he was a ‘f**king animal.’”
He provides that she shouted:
“You’ll by no means be King! William will succeed your mom. I’ll see to that.”
Whoa. They had been so savage to at least one one other, mentioned a bodyguard, that “violence appeared inevitable.” Actually, the officers started to get anxious concerning the “sheer firepower” throughout the partitions of Highgrove Home. The residence was house to numerous weapons, presumably for looking and sport, together with shotguns, rifles, and pistols. Andersen notes:
“The detectives in command of defending members of the royal household had been deeply involved that ‘within the warmth of anger,’ any one in every of these may very well be used to commit suicide, murder or each.”
Wow. The actual fact they had been anxious a few potential murder is chilling given the conspiracy theories surrounding Diana’s dying only a 12 months after their divorce…
