On Valentine's Day in 1992, Diana sat alone on a bench in front of the Taj Mahal, her eyes revealing a sadness greater than her heart, and took the famous photo "The Lonely Princess", which broke everyone's hearts and made Charles completely "crazy".

This year, the phone recording of Charles and Camilla's "large-scale love talk" was exposed, as the prince, he lost all the face of the royal family, and the news of his marriage to Diana also spread.
In order to calm down this turmoil, Queen Elizabeth II specially arranged a visit to India for them during Valentine's Day, hoping that they would create an atmosphere of love between husband and wife through this trip to India, and hope that they could repair their relationship with each other.
However, contrary to expectations, the trip to India did not have the desired effect, but accelerated the breakup process between Charles and Diana.

In fact, Diana is looking forward to this trip to India, she likes the mysterious oriental culture very much.

The Indian people have also shown great enthusiasm for this "Rose of England". When she first arrived in India, Diana was in high spirits and chatted happily with her entourage, perhaps she had some hopes for the future of her marriage.

On Valentine's Day, Charles and Diana were scheduled to visit the Taj Mahal, a palace that symbolizes eternal love.
However, Charles changed his itinerary without permission, and he was reluctant to go to a place that symbolized love with a woman he didn't love.
Diana had to go to the Taj Mahal alone, and she looked at the magnificent buildings, the beautiful scenery, and touched the scene. Diana thought of her bad marriage and the grievances she had suffered after marrying into the royal family for more than ten years, and she sat on a bench in front of the Taj Mahal, her head drooping, and her expression darkened.

Diana no longer wanted to show the media the illusion of marital harmony with Charles, she sat lonely on a bench at the entrance of the Taj Mahal, her eyes revealing sadness that was more sad than her heart dying, looking at the camera.
The sun casts a shadow on Diana, with a red dress and a solemn white building, she is like a delicate rose, but unfortunately without her husband's care, everything looks so lonely.
At this time, the media pressed the shutter button, and the famous photo "The Lonely Princess" was born.

When the photo was published in the British newspapers, it immediately caused a huge sensation and broke the hearts of the British people, who perceived that Charles was a "negative man" who ruined Diana's happiness.
It was this photo that made everyone feel sorry for Diana, and the spearhead of public opinion was pointed at Charles, making him the finger of a thousand people.

Later, royal experts revealed that the world-famous photo had seriously damaged Charles's reputation, and he was so anxious that he was going crazy, and his public approval rating hit a new low.
Diana is very good at using media public opinion to build momentum for herself and win public sympathy. But even though the Taj Mahal photos made Charles the target of public criticism, they did not shake his desire to separate.

At the end of December 1992, the British royal family announced the separation of Charles and Diana. In 1996, they divorced completely, a royal marriage, which put Diana into a tragic life.
In 2016, when Prince William and his wife, Princess Kate, visited India, they made a special trip to the Taj Mahal, where they sat on the bench where their mother Diana once sat and took pictures, which happened to be their fifth wedding anniversary.

In the place where his mother set foot, recalling the lonely photo of his mother many years ago, Prince William's thoughts surged, his eyes were red, perhaps because he was afraid that his wife would see it, William silently turned his back and wiped away the tears from the corners of his eyes with his hands.

What is touching is that history is really a reincarnation, and now Prince William seems to be following the old path of his father Charles, Princess Kate is suffering from cancer, whether she will become the next Diana, the ending is very worrying!
