In 1996, the biggest event for the British people was the divorce of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
A marriage that has tormented each other for 15 years, a relationship full of controversy that has always been unable to let go, and finally ended its entanglement by breaking up.
However, regarding the divorce, there must be Diana's eternal unwillingness.
At that time, she was alone against the entire royal family, Charles was desperate, the royal family was indifferent, and no one could think for her from her point of view.
The royal family even asked Fiona, known as "Steel Mulan", to be a lawyer in order to maximize Charles's benefits in this marriage.
Yes, Fiona is the one who later won the most expensive divorce case in history for Princess Shahya, and her image in the rich circle means identity and strength: to preserve assets and get the most out of the divorce lawsuit.
It can be imagined that Diana is very passive in this divorce lawsuit and is lonely. Although the lawyer she hired was also good, she was still at a disadvantage compared to Fiona.
For example, Diana insisted on keeping the title of "Her Highness", but Fiona constantly lobbied for it and oppressed her psychological defenses through various stakes.
Eventually, Diana's lawyer did her ideological work: it was better to give up the title in exchange for more wealth and benefits.
As a result, Diana made the most wrong choice of her life: to give up the title of "Your Highness".
Some people wonder, isn't this just a title? Marriage is gone, what do you want these false names to do? Some people even think that Diana's stubborn grasp of the title of "Your Highness" and not letting go is that she does not want to give up on royal life.
But in fact, this title is not as simple as we understand it. Titles such as Princess and Princess are conferred by the monarch and are recognized by the United Nations of Great Britain and Northern Ireland.
Usually, members of the royal family, that is, the daughters of the monarch and the wives of their sons, have such titles.
At the time of George V, the law stipulated that even if the princess's husband died, she could leave the title for the rest of her life.
However, when Elizabeth II arrived, she promulgated the Imperial Decree on 21 August 1996: "Prince of the United Nations of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" After the divorce, the former Princess will be stripped of the honorific title of "Highness".
You see, is this a royal system that the king "tailored" for Diana? This is a very difficult reality for Diana to accept.
Of course, what she couldn't accept was that losing the title meant a huge gulf with her own son.
First, Diana's eldest son, William, was the future King of England by inheritance law, and if his mother was a commoner, his identity would be questioned by the people.
Secondly, the biological mother and child are bound to contact and see each other frequently. According to royal regulations, when meeting the king, women must perform a bowed salute.
Does this mean the fact that Diana will bow her knees to her son when she sees him in the future?
This kind of feeling, not to say to Diana, just the average mother listens to it is not difficult to accept? This is unfairness under the hierarchy, a reality that separates family affection from identity.
How ironic is it that Diana suffered in the royal family for 15 years, and finally left, even her own own son had to be cut out of his life?
To this end, Diana fought hard against Charles and the royal family, and almost collapsed.
At this time, William, who was only 14 years old, saw everything in his eyes.
William gently comforted his mother: "You can rest assured, when I become king in the future, I will give you what you want." ”
The heart of a child, the fist is visible! Although William was only 14 years old, he put himself in his mother's shoes.
It was the humiliation of the royal family to the mother, and it was the despair and misery that the father brought to the mother.
As a son, he was still young and completely incapable of standing up to protect his mother. However, William was well aware of his identity, and in the future, he would be the man who held the scepter of the King of England.
Therefore, if his identity can be established, then he can get back what he has lost for his mother, and he will let her find the dignity of being trampled by the royal family again.
Who says sons are all leather jackets? With a son like William, Diana was already deeply pleased. No matter how much unfairness, no matter how much sorrow, because of her son's understanding, she can abandon it.
In this case, Diana signed a divorce agreement with all of Charles's property, while throwing away the title of "Princess Highness" that she had worn for more than a decade.
Many people think that Diana is not trying to make money? Look at what she forced Charles into, when she took all of Charles's assets, and, in order to make up for the divorce, a prince would not hesitate to borrow money from his mother to quickly conclude the marriage.
But so what?
Shouldn't a woman enter the royal family from the age of 20, give birth to 2 sons, endure her husband's infidelity for many years, make countless contributions to the royal family, and take away the assets of a negative person?
Moreover, Diana made a will at the age of 32, and all her assets were divided between her two sons.
Why would a mother write a will at such a young age? His deep love for his son is conceivable, right?
On the contrary, Charles, knowing that he was wrong in this marriage, did not have any guilt. How contemptuous and cruel is it to force his ex-wife to leave the title of "His Highness" and let her bow to his son?
When facing a ruthless, cold man, do you still pay attention to what human feelings, what kindness? Give him a fatal blow, so that he can never turn over, that is the most important thing a woman should do!
So, Diana went on a long divorce tug-of-war with Charles with a determination, and finally occupied Kensington Palace with a maintenance of £15 million and equal access to her two sons.
This is a divorce case that has stunned the world, and has been called "the bloodiest divorce case" in the history of the royal family by some media.
Unfortunately, none of this made much sense, because in just one year, Diana died in Paris, becoming a wandering soul in a foreign country.
Today, William is still not king, and his desire to give his mother the title has not yet been fulfilled.
But his mother has been dead for many years, and all he can do is to continue to mourn and miss her every year. In fact, you can imagine what kind of pain has been hidden in William's heart for so many years.
He has no one to tell, nor can he publicize, but only his own actions are telling the world: I have never forgotten my mother and the harm she has suffered.
