Prince Charles was photographed carrying Princess Diana into the water when they were on a beach.

Many thought that Princess Charles never loved his first wife because his heart has always been with Camilla Parker Bowles. However, when one looks at the Prince and Princess of Wales photos, there were times when they really enjoyed each other.

Prince Charles and Princess Diana loved the beach. They were photographed swimming many times.

One snap features the future king playfully carrying Princess Diana into the water. From the photo, it appears that Prince Charles surprised his then-wife by forcefully getting her into the water as he carries her in his shoulder.

Prince Charles and Princes Diana were also photographed getting intimate by the beach. There were photos of the royal couple sunbathing in their swimwear with dark shades.

In one photo, Prince Charles can be seen holding one of Princess Diana’s breasts. Meanwhile, she puts one of her legs on Prince Charles.

According to a royal fan, Princess Diana and Prince Charles were expecting their second child at the time. Royal expert Ingrid Seward said that the Prince and Princess of Wales were really happy before Prince Harry was born.

“There was a period, and I suppose it was after William was born when they were very happy,” Seward said. “But it just didn’t last for very long.”

Katie Nicholl revealed that Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s relationship was already not okay when the couple welcomed their second son. Nicholl said that Prince Harry was born “into an unhappy marriage.” The People’s Princess was hoping that Prince Harry’s arrival would be the solution to keep their marriage together. Apparently, she was wrong.

According to Andrew Morton’s biography “Diana: Her True Story,” Princess Diana was so hurt by Prince Charles’ reaction when he learned that they had another boy. The heir apparent reportedly wanted a girl. Meanwhile, Princess Diana knew all along that they were having another boy, but she kept it a secret from her husband because she knew that he had a gender preference for their second baby.

Princess Diana told Morton that after Prince Charles’ not-so-warm reaction to Prince Harry, she felt that “something inside me closed off.” Shortly after that, their marriage broke down.
