Princess Diana never wanted to marry King Charles as a young girl.
The former Princess of Wales had major doubts ahead of marrying then Prince Charles, it is noted in new book Queen Elizabeth II, written by Hugo Vickers.
Diana and Charles got married in July 1981 wedding at St. Paul’s Cathedral.
Vickers notes: “As a schoolgirl, Diana had a professed ambition: to marry her childhood playmate Prince Andrew,” he wrote.
“The truth is she hardly knew Charles, and called him ‘Sir’ until the day of their engagement.”
“During Ascot week, Prince Charles looked over at Diana at dinner and asked his neighbour: ‘Do you think you can fall in love after you’re married?’” Vickers wrote.
Days before the wedding, it is revealed King Charles was unsure about marrying Diana and confined in a friend.
“I am not sure that I can handle this,” Prince Charles reportedly told pal, who the noted “it was not too late to abandon the plan.”
