By all accounts this is true. The French nurses reported that Charles sobs were uncontrollable and that nobody knew what to say or do but to hear him moan and sob. In the end no matter what I think Charles felt guilty and did have some love for Diana.
Really? I was wondering about that, since this scene shows people hearing him outside. I also always thought Charles cared. There are many kinds of love but the romantic one. It's also possible to love someone while still being incompatible and unable to live with them. He was probably also crying a little for his sons.
She was the mother of his children afterall. And I think he did have some affection for her, specially after the divorce when things cooled down between them and they were both out of that unhappy marriage. He simply never loved her as the woman of his life, that was always Camilla.
I admit that I don't like Charles Windsor as a man. But he is human, with all the faults and foibles that entails. Most importantly, I hope King Charles rules wisely and well for the sake of my UK 'cousins'.
I think there was a lot of guilt. You can want to not be married to someone, but that doesn't mean you want them dead. And for something to end like this is objectively horrifying.
the nurses and doctors who were present have said charles sobbed uncontrolably. i think he loved her not as a wife, but as the mother of his sons and he did admire her - she was a wonderful human being.
I feel very very sorry for those that think becuse they were divorced they hated each other and he couldn't experience grief or sadness at her passing. Humans are complex. Relationships are complex. There are many layers to our lives and emotions. You can be incompatible as a married couple but still love one another, wish the best for each other, and respect each other. This is especially true if you have children together. And quite frankly it SHOULD be this way and not a forever war. If you think in black and white terms, absolutes, then there is an immaturity to your thinking.
Agreed. My wife and I have been together for 10 years and we're together only because it's economically advantageous for our kids. We work well together raising them, even if we aren't compatible as a couple. I would be devastated if something happened to her.
@Vandil_the_Rogue I know many sets of people, especially among my parents' and grandparents' friends, that were a disaster as a married couple and got divorced. Once divorced, they were best friends. You see them more together post marriage than during their marriage, with and without shared children. Several even decided to live together again as roommates and have lived longer that way than as a married couple. The Duke of York and Sarah, Duchess of York are a prime example of such a relationship, specifically to continue raising their kids together in a way best for their daughters, and I admire them for it.
Diana was picked for him based on her bloodline and family pedigree. He didn't choose her ... he was told to court her and marry her. The woman he wanted he was told he couldn't have. He married who they told him to based on duty, and Diana was a young girl who went into it believing it would be the real deal and a love match. Ultimately, they were virtual strangers matched only for one purpose - to combine two families, and then create heirs for the Crown. They realized the marriage wasn't working, that things wouldn't change, and that a divorce was best for their boys and their own happiness. And it worked -- they were pretty good at co-parenting afterward. We see that he really was sad after she died. He may not have been in love with her but he cared about her as the mother of his boys.
People may disagree with me on this, but it's inevitable a small part of Diana stuck unto Charles even after he married Camilla. Some examples could probably be her love for Will & Harry compared to him and his mother (yes I do know she is struggling as queen), her opennes to reach out to people and how royalty can adapt to change which resulted in her as The People's Princess.
@@Kayla-z2iif she had lived she wouldn’t have been revered or worshipped like she is now. Same as Marilyn Monroe, Kurt Cobain, James Dean etc. Dying tragically young at the peak of your fame turns the narrative into something mythical. At the time Diana was actually rather hated in the press.
According to people who were there, she hardly had any injuries besides a bruise or two. The damage was internal and she did have sutures where the emergency doctors opened her chest cavity to massage her heart but she was covered by a sheet until her butler, Paul Burrell arrived with a black dress that was lent by the Ambassador's wife. The nurses had dressed her and fixed her hair prior to Charles and Diana's sisters arrival. Paul Burrell said that she looked like she was asleep. There was nothing ghastly but it's a good thing that the producers decided not to show her body out of respect.
people have said this show was sometimes incorrect with some of the stuff but this was correct.the nurses and doctors said he sobbed uncontrollably.so sad
I asked my Mom(whom was married to my Dad til death parted them)if Charles mourned Diana. She answered that yes, he did. She gave him two sons. She was his first wife. They were together for 15 years, and some of those years were happy. And Diana was so very young when they were married. My Mom said Charles wept for all that was between them.
This reminds me of a quote "That's the thing about happiness. All it takes is something bad to come along, and you realise it was happiness after all" Queen Elizabeth, The Crown season 2 "Dear Mrs Kennedy"
You can be married to the wrong person (in this case forced to) and still have deep feelings for them, plus she was the mother to his darling boys, he loved someone else it happens, but he's not a monster for being human.
I prefer to give grace to both people. He cried because he was fond of her , or loved her, and couldn’t believe it had come to this, her death.” What could I have done to not have this happen?” as a later thought. Such a terrible series of choices made because of the framework of his family.
Not crocodile tears. If nothing else, tears of pent-up tension released, and tears of grief for the boys growing up without their beloved mother. We must remember also that some people would rather take a “just desserts” and “crocodile tears” approach to avoid having to feel rightly-due sympathy for someone they don’t like as a person (which is their prerogative), in a situation that is awful for anyone by all normal moral standards.
We all agree he treated her like shit messed with her mental health, and made her feel like an obstacle to his true love, but there were some moments when there was love and despite all that has happened divorced or not she was still his wife and mother of his children they were married for 15 years and had two sons you don't go married for that long and not have some feelings even if they are small and in this moment he is realizing how much he envyed her how she was everything his family told him he couldn't be and how poorly he treated her since she was the families choice not his all that regret along with some of the good times and there were good times it just ate at him destroying him as he sees her lifeless body.
Really the only person who knows how Charles felt about Diana, is Charles. AND people need to stop assuming they think they know. I think there was love there, she gave him his sons, but unfortunately she wasn't the person he was in love with.
One thing His Majesty did acknowledge and respected in regards to Diana. Her love for their children. And yes at some point he did love her. To some? It's just "petty show off love" to make Diana's adoring fans a bit calm. But to me, there is still a teeny tiny bit of love for her. No one, no sane human being (well I guess white Americans because they're known to crave violence) would ever wish death upon their ex. His Majesty was being human here. And he has respect for Diana, for her passions, her beliefs and her love for Wills and Harry. Even Her Majesty Queen Camilla has immense respect for Diana.
I think PC loved Diana very much. She wasn’t the love of his life, but that doesn’t mean he didn’t love her. And although he had absolutely nothing to do with her death, I am sure he still felt somehow responsible. Horrified, devastated, bereaved, and thinking this was very much not how her life was supposed to end. And knowing the pain his children would go through, losing their beloved mother at such young ages. I witnessed their marriage and saw everything that happened after- many people felt PC was the villain, but he wasn’t. It was a struggle for both of them, and as his former wife and mother of his 2 children, he only wished the best for her.
For me the most sad thing about this scene was Diana's sisters hearing Charles breaking down and getting closer to each other for support.. knowing they'll have to watch their dead sister in just a few moments.
This seems needlessly cruel. I understand that it's protocol but she was one of the most recognizable people in the world at the time. He didn't need to see that.
Don’t have to romantically love someone to cry over their death. Especially if you’ve gone from being with your crying boys to travelling with her crying sisters, that’s a lot of emotions on top of whatever his own were.
Diana, Princess of Wales cheated on him too. In fact she admitted that she cheated on him first with her bodyguard. She also slept with many other men, several were married, and as such she broke many marriages in the process. Infidelity went both ways...
Why would people applaud a hearse? And I doubt he cried, and if he did, it must have been for show--he must have been rejoicing inside finally to be rid of her.
If you are not informed, please do so. It was said by nurses and doctores that he cried, that he was really truly moved and sobbed. In many ways, their war was finished. They were little by little moving on and then this happened. Don't asume that he cried to make a show or PR.... It was the Mother of his children 😢
Aside from the conspiracy. I don't think Charles was happy that the mother of his children was k*lled in a car crash. They were both leading happy lives separately and co-parenting the boys just fine
@@wentaoma211but he knew that the boys meant so much to her as they were to him (whatever you wanna call it). She respected his wishes after their divorce, the least he could do is do the same.
@@wentaoma211 No, literally a car crash killed her. Sure, had it not for him she wouldn't have been in that special car at that specific moment, but that's true of everyone's partner. If your partner dies in a car crash tomorrow are you going to say you literally killed them because if they hadn't met you they wouldn't have made that specific journey? Charles made her unhappy and divorced. A drunk man driving her at speed (twice the legal speed limit) while she didn't put her seatbelt on, that killed her.
By all accounts this is true. The French nurses reported that Charles sobs were uncontrollable and that nobody knew what to say or do but to hear him moan and sob. In the end no matter what I think Charles felt guilty and did have some love for Diana.

This is 100% correct and no one wants there ex-anything to died in a car crash.

She was mother to the boys, of course he loved her in many ways.

Like they say; “You never really know what you have until it’s gone.” And then what a horrible realization to have.

This is true
Brilliant acting from all the cast in series 6. Elizabeth Redicki who played Diana was mesmerising.

i believe he will always carry apart of diana around with him because of their children their will always be love for her there
0:33 I think the reason why they didn't show the body is because considering how serious the accident is it was really disturbing to see it.
It’s also very disrespectful, Diana is still very loved.
@@Laurennn in my opinion I she is worshipped as if she was/is a goddess and not a fellow flesh and blood human being

He did love her unconditionally. Like a friend, like his sons mother, like she was a real Princess.

This must have been a hard seen to make. No one is perfect. RIP Diana❤️
can you upload the scene when william goes missing
I do believe that he truly loved her in the end!
Can you upload the scene where Charles and his parents argue about Diana's funeral?
It’s on my channel
He loved her. But was not in love with her. The years had given perspective. Now she was gone and his boys lost their mother.
This seems needlessly cruel. I understand that it's protocol but she was one of the most recognizable people in the world at the time. He didn't need to see that.
They said her face wasn't marked. She was a mess neck down
This no prince Charles is Jimmy Mcnulty
It’s hard to be a genuinely sad crocodile.
I truly think charles cared for diana just not loved her
About damm time you realise she was a Dimond charles . Saddly she had to pass away for you to realize that
I don't buy it for a second. He treated Diana so badly he's now shedding crocodile tears...
IF Charles cried it was fake. Nobody treats a person with so much disrespect and truly loves them.
Don’t have to romantically love someone to cry over their death. Especially if you’ve gone from being with your crying boys to travelling with her crying sisters, that’s a lot of emotions on top of whatever his own were.
Shame on him for cheating on Princess Diana.

It's pretty much a royal tradition. She wasn't some innocent school girl. She did her own share of it.

Idk man, emotions are complicated. You don’t 100% feel half your ex is dead. Sometimes you miss them, feelings are messy
Bullshit
Crocodile tears for a woman he indirectly had killed.
I don't see how Charles can be held even indirectly responsible fer her choosing not to wear a seatbelt and be driven around by a drunk.
Aside from the conspiracy. I don't think Charles was happy that the mother of his children was k*lled in a car crash. They were both leading happy lives separately and co-parenting the boys just fine
