Queen Elizabeth II labelled ‘coldhearted’ mum unlike Princess Diana

Princess Diana was once branded a better mother than Queen Elizabeth II by Royal experts.

The former Princess of Wales, who passed away in a car accident in Paris 1997, always insured her children were accompanied during Royal tours- something Her Majesty did not believe in.

In the book Queen Elizabeth II: Pocket Giants, royal expert Victoria Arbiter said: "In 1983, Charles and Diana were lauded for taking their 9-month-old son Prince Williamon their 6-week tour to Australia and New Zealand.”

"Pundits took to their columns, comparing the cold unfeeling Queen who left her children behind, to Diana, who defied convention and broke with tradition."

"In order to do a fair comparison, however, one must consider the generational divide," the royal expert explained. "30 years had passed between The Queen's tour and that of the Waleses's, during which time advances in modern aviation made travel significantly speedier."

Arbiter wrote: "People's attitudes towards royalty had shifted and, adored as she was, Diana was merely a princess, not The Queen."
