Diana lived up to her part of the deal producing the (heir and spare) but Diana never got her happily ever after. Chuck was the one that welshed on the deal (and he is the heir to the head of the church who's vows he could not live up to....if nothing else he should have kept his pants zipped no matter how bad it was). I believe that Diana truly had issues and needed serious help but purely for the royals needs I think they should have kept Diana in cotton wool until she was needed in public again. Diana was the best thing to happen to the royal family but the royal family was just to stupid to know what they had on their hands. Chuck is the British equivalent of Jean F'n Kerry.

... but Diana never got her happily ever after.True, but if she'd been 32 when they married, she probably would have been more realistic from the start. I expect most people realized Charles was a putz long before! And he does look like John Kerry, doesn't he?
