The late Queen Elizabeth II<\/a> was reportedly a shoulder to cry on for a late Royal Family member, Diana the Princess of Wales<\/a>. According to royal author Ian Lloyd, in his book ‘The Queen: 70 Chapters in the Life of Queen Elizabeth II’, the former monarch had some unexpected encounters with Diana.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n He writes: “Although she professed being ‘terrified’ of her mother-in-law, Diana took to calling on the Queen unannounced to pour out her heart to her.” It is reported that once the late Diana cried three times to her mother-in-law.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Per the biographer, “Sometimes, the Queen’s schedule meant the princess had to wait. One footman later reported to The Queen, ‘The princess cried three times in a half hour while waiting to see you.'” Not missing a beat, the former monarch reportedly responded by saying, “I had her for half an hour and she cried non-stop.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n The Queen and [Prince Philip] welcomed [Princess Diana] into the family in their own, no-nonsense way,” the royal biographer further shared. “Elizabeth, however, struggled to find much in common with the new Princess of Wales and admitted she couldn’t understand her personality.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n After 15 years of marriage and having Prince William<\/a> and Prince Harry<\/a>, the Prince and Princess of Wales divorced in 1996. Diana infamously said to the BBC<\/a>\u2019s Martin Bashir there were \u201cthree of us\u201d in her ill-fated marriage to Charles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n Diana also recounted her wedding day to biographer Andrew Morton. “I remember being so in love with my husband that I couldn’t take my eyes off him,” she said. “I just absolutely thought I was the luckiest girl in the world. He was going to look after me.”<\/p>\n<\/div>\n In 1992, Andrew Morton published ‘Diana: Her True Story – in Her Own Words’, for which Diana herself supplied recordings through her friend James Colthurst. The book addressed Diana’s unhappiness in her marriage, detailing issues she faced as a result, such as bulimia and suicide attempts.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.express.co.uk \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" The late Queen Elizabeth II was reportedly a shoulder to cry on for a late Royal Family member, Diana the Princess of Wales.
