Prince Charles and princess Diana

Crown Prince Charles was born on November 14, 1948 at Buckinham Palace. In 1965, at 17 he was sent to school in Australia. He was not going there for his own pleasure but because he was the heir to the throne and should have some experience of the Commonwealth. He enjoyed his stay there. In 1969, at the age of 21, he was presented to the Welsh people at the Caernarvon Castle to become Prince of Wales. In 1971 he entered the Royal Air Force College.

Prince Charles, aged 33 married 19-year old Diana Spencer on July 29, 1981.

They have two children William /b. 1982/ and Harry /b. 1984/. A quarrel over the children in 1992 finally broke the marriage. Charles wanted his family to join him for a shooting party. Disapproving of the killing of the animals, Diana backed out, proposing that she and the boys go to stay with the Queen. That was when Charles patience snapped and he asked for a separation. The marriage ended in divorce in 1996. In 1997 Prince of Wales visited Ukraine, and stayed in Bakhchisarai and Sevastopol.

When Diana married Prince Charles, the British public liked her immediately. She was shy and looked very human. She did not hide her emotions. People admired her for managing to get over her problems. During her life Diana campaigned for many charities.

She took her yong sons to meet homeless people under Waterloo Bridge because she wanted her children to see what life was like for people less fortunate than them. Since her death, many people have donated money to the charities she supported. Towards the end of her life she did a lot of work with the International Red Cross to try to abolish the use of landmines in war zones. She was suggested as a recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize.

Princess Diana crashed in an accident in a tunnel under the Alma Bridge in Paris on August 31, 1997.

She was beautiful; she was royal. She became the symbol of the new Britain – stylish and cosmopolitan. Diana was a real people’s princess, the rose of England.
