it amazes me that people think they REALLY know celebrities/royalty
you have idea what went on behind closed doors
you know what the media wants you to know
his personality or actions do not translate to his physical appearance and THAT is what was being discussed
you don't know Prince Charles anymore than you know any other stranger
and honestly Princess Diana probably wasn't a peach either - she just got the better end of the deal from the media

I think people forget Diana was only 36 when she died, so all of her episodes happened at a young age. She had a lot of weight on her shoulders, couldn't go anywhere in public after the end of her loveless marriage. I watched the biopic Diana and the movie the Queen and both depict Charles' personality in the same way - aloof. Diana tried hard for her kids to be raised "normal" among regular people so they could develop decent personalities.

I think he looks so much like William did at that age - he's definitely a Spencer. (thank goodness, would hate to have him take after the royal side of the family, imagine him looking like Charles!). I wonder if the next one will take after Catherine? We were googling pictures of him at work yesterday ( ) and we came across side by side pictures of George and William at the same age. They could almost have been twins!

That is one adorable baby, and I love how he has dressed.
My mother woke me up in the middle of the night to watch the Charles/Diana wedding when I was a kid, and I have been a sucker ever since.

Anything she did or did not do is irrelevant to my opinion of him. This discussion hasn't been about her; why bring it up?

But even as a young teen I didn't see her as beautiful as outsiders did because I knew her ugly personality. Personalities do translate to how people view your physical appearance.

Because you're clearly judging Charles for something he did, that Diana did also. I just find that odd. Is it because she was "pretty" and Charles "isn't"? Why are you holding him to a higher standard than her?
Personally, I really don't care. She's dead, Charles is remarried. The boys seem to do ok (at least publically) with Camilla. What business is it of anyone else's?

Why do you think I'm holding her to a higher or different standard than him? I have not expressed a single opinion of her on this or any other thread.

goobernut said how much she loved Diana and that Charles had an ugly personality. you quoted and said "me too" essentially. By judging him poorly by something that he has done, then I'd think you'd feel the same about her, however, you did state that you loved her too like goobernut.

I was agreeing with her statement about Charles.
And I feel like that was clear from the comment I made.
I have not said anything about Diana.
