She was nineteen!

..and despite her priviliged background, was ill educated, both academically and in the ways of the world. She'd never had a boyfriend, and foolishly thought the man who asked her to be his wife actually loved her.

Let’s hope it’s not Harry are we’ll have a commoner back on the thrown.

Actually I think Charles would have made a good head of State, but I will give way and agree with you that perhaps it would be good for the country if the title went to William when the time comes.

As I have said before he was the one carrying on, if Diana tried to get on with her life later she certainly paid with her own life. I will always believe she was done away with because she might have married Dodi and brought shame on the monarchy as if toss pot hadn't. Oh but I forgot he's a man so that's okay!!

right lets sum this up- Charles heir to the throne - must have his own heir. Camilla - ugly hanging bag,been around the block a bit- probably a good lay- but NO breeding potential, due to the latter. Diana- average looking bird, NO track record,unlike Camilla, EXCELLANT breeding potential. so its no contest, Charles MUST have an heir.right or wrong thats how they play the game. and that ladies is how i see it.

If you're a monarchist you can't pick who in the line of succession you want. You have to have whoever is next.

It seems strange to me that even Prince Edward's daughter is higher in the line of succession then Princess Anne, because that's the way it works. The off-spring of a son out ranks a daughter.

Pity really, because Princess Anne certainly has more balls than Charles.

The list is here, if anyone want's to check where they are on it.

There are rumours that Edward is not Philip's son - that would be a turn up for the books

Princess Anne would be better than any of the blokes,, but even her marriage is very colourful...

Granny. It is my hope that those who genuinely wish to celebrate the life of Diana and remember her for her good deeds on earth are allowed to do so in peace and harmony. Those who don’t should stay away and allow matters to proceed. Above all else the right and privileges of her lads should be up held and respected.
