Prince Charles turns 73 today, but the truth is that behind his name there will always be the figure of Diana of Wales and not precisely because she needed him to have public notoriety, but because his name intrinsically carries the penalty of a society that continues to remember the woman who marked a before and after in international history.
He who aspires to reign the throne of England has had a full life, everything he has wanted has been at his fingertips and has never allowed himself the luxury of thinking about what he should not do. A beloved character, but also criticized in the past, a burden that will not be removed because in his story there is also that of a woman who overshadowed him and the entire British Crown.
The relationship he had with Lady Di is more than well known, it was hell for her and a nightmare for him, although they both benefited from everything. If she wanted prominence, she got it, but at the cost of only talking about her because Diana monopolized all the spotlights with her smile, with her sadness, with her clothes, with the causes she wanted to vindicate …
Prince Charles will be punished throughout his life for what we already know that he put the Princess of Wales through, infidelities, public contempt, lies … that will be something that history does not forget. 71 years full of experiences that English society does not forget and penalizes, but yes, having managed to be next to the one who was always the love of his life.
