Princess Diana Part 1: The Royal Romance That Was Over Before It Began
Description
In this episode of The Compendium, we kick off our three-part series on Princess Diana, Part 1. We start with Diana’s early years and whirlwind engagement to Prince Charles, then uncover how royal life’s pressures shattered the fairy tale. You'll hear how her childhood, a strained marriage, Royal Family expectations, and the looming shadow of Camilla Parker Bowles brought private struggles—bulimia and isolation—into the spotlight. With honesty and intimacy, this episode reveals the hidden cost of becoming the People’s Princess.
