It's a very difficult position/situation to marry into, "commoner" or not. You'd think these royal families would do their absolute best to support and protect the newest member of the family adjust to life in the spotlight and the high level of scrutiny they are subjected to. But time after time they fail these women and they're so damn lucky it hasn't ended in even more tragedy (like with one of them ending their lives). It may look like a charmed life to us on the outside, but a golden cage is still just that - a cage.

Some say that even when Diana and Charles were engaged they were still seeing each other, now if they were intimate or not, that is up for debate, but they were definitely seeing each other. Cause that was the time Camilla was trying to befriend Diana. And as for Dodi and Diana being engaged at the time of their deaths is also something highly debated on. All we know to be fact is that he purchased a ring for her a day before they were murdered, he had the ring picked up to be taken to the apartment where they were headed to when they unfortunately their demise.

I love your videos, but please, I don’t believe Princess Diana was ever engaged to Dodi al Fayed except in Mohammed al Fayed’s delusions. It’s insulting to her family. I’m not talking about the royal family (though her children do deserve the courtesy of having their mother’s last moments not be lies for public consumption), but her siblings and the extended Spencer family. I know I wouldn’t want a lie continuously repeated about my sister, aunt or mother just because a delusional opportunist who enjoyed collecting royal memorabilia said so. As someone with a degree in journalism who studied abroad and met others who cover European events, I would never repeat tabloid fodder, especially when it’s unnecessary to the story you’re telling. I know your research has to be better than that. And consider the Swedish tiara. It belonged to Empress Josephine because her granddaughter (also named Josephine) was Queen consort of Sweden.

The throne would just go on to his sister, because the couple would not be having children, that would be okay to inherit. I think the same goes for both Sweden and Norway tbh. If we are talking about the UK, I think its a 50/50 whether people would really be okay with it. And if you are talking about Spain, I dont think they would be okay with it.
