Just hours after the fatal accident where Princess Diana of Wales, better known as Lady Di, her ex-husband had a very strong exchange of words with his mother, the late Queen Elizabeth II. What could have been the reason for the argument?
Even though the Princess had already divorced the prince Charles, who now is the King of England, King Charles III, the British newspaper The Mirror revealed that Prince Charles was extremely affected by the death news, after all, she was the mother of their two children, Harry, and William, who were also left devastated after finding out about the fatal car accident.
According to what was reported by The Mirror, between the late Queen Elizabeth II and the now King Charles III there were a lot of misunderstandings after the passing of Lady Di. The discussion was intense and the main reason for it was that Charles III thought the body of Diana should be repatriated, to be buried in her home country, The United Kingdom.
He was just an ex-husband, so he was only able to be there at the burial as the father of the children but not interfere or decide anything, since that was an affair for the Queen. The prince wanted to use the Royal Airplane to rush to Paris with his two kids, but the petition was denied by the Queen, initially at least.
Many sources back then stated that Charles fought for Diana as he never had before, and he maintained a firm position and would not give up on his request. He was so persistent that the Queen later decided to concede and allowed him to take care of all the protocol and the matters regarding Lady Di’s royal funeral.
That was how the prince Charles managed to arrive to Paris along with Diana’s sisters, to take back to the UK the body of the Princess of the People, as she was known.
Paul Burrel, who once was Diana’s butler, was already at the hospital when the prince arrived. He also confirmed that Charles looked very affected by the event, and that he would barely speak.

Burrel mentioned that he had never seen Charles so interested in her, not even when she was alive.
“Charles was devastated. She was a woman he loved, in his way”.
Charles then asked for the coffin to be covered with the Royal flag and that it should be treated as a royal event, with all that it involves.
He finally gave her the place se deserved when she was alive, and his wife.
