Here’s why Princess Diana and King Charles ‘cried together’ on the day of their divorce.

The family members were at quite a tumultuous time in their lives. It seems like there might’ve been a small spark of romance left on the day of their divorce despite their aching hearts. An insider alleged the two shared an emotional moment with each other the day they put an end to their love story.

According to Daily Mail, the first part of a Channel 5 documentary, titled The Royal Family at War, went on to claim that the former royal couple were weeping together while signing their divorce papers, making it official. The Editor of Royalty Magazine, Ingrid Steward dropped the bombshell in an interview for the documentary. The editor recalled having a brief conversation with the ethereal late Princess of Wales, suggesting, “Diana did tell me something quite interesting…”

Steward continued, “She said that on the day of the divorce, she and Charles sat down together on the sofa and they both cried.” This was quite surprising considering the circumstances and pressure the two were under. Moreover, finding out an affair involving the love of your life is a bitter pill to swallow. Sometimes, being in the very same room could trigger feelings of hurt.

But, Steward’s allegations concerning how ‘close’ the pair were despite everything insinuated that they were still each other’s support system in times of despair. Steward suggestively explained, “It was this crazy separation, but by the time the divorce was finalized, they were on much better terms.”
