Rewinding back in time before Prince Charles' affair with Camilla Parker-Bowles, before Charles' and Diana's divorce and before Diana's tragic passing, young Lady Diana Spencer was a hopeful romantic and convinced Charles was going to give her a blissful life. Novelist and journalist Wendy Holden revisited Diana's teenage years leading up to her royal marriage for a fictionalized novel called "The Princess." Holden explains why Diana was "absolutely crazily in love with Prince Charles, or the idea of Prince Charles and what she thought he was" and how it contextualizes the betrayals Diana would later face in her life.
