they were clearly unhappy in each other s company. diana s friend and journalist, richard kay, reported on the trip. diana famously went to the taj mahal. which is one of the most romantic buildings on the planet. and charles, who had said that one day he wanted to bring his wife to this place did not go. diana was there alone. you think she did that on purpose? she knew what she was doing. and that picture, i mean, it just said it all. it s one of the most significant photographs of the entire marriage. because it showed this picture of an unloved, beautiful, young woman. a lonely wife? a lonely wife. sitting in front of this monument to love. two days later, diana put an exclamation point on that picture. with yet another defining moment of what the media was calling, the war of the whales. it happened after charles polo matches. when diana presented him with
photographs were taken of them and diana did not disavow this relationship. she made it clear still clear to me, he is an unmarried man. and i am a divorced woman. why should i see him? yes i m very happy. he makes me happy. i mean, that was the message she sent out. a message, says simone symonds, was meant for one person in particular. she thought it might get khan back because he might be jealous. diana had the emotional maturity of a 13 to 14 year old. oh, let s get him jealous. it s gonna make him want me even more. that was diana. whatever diana s intent, those pictures on the yacht triggered a media free eating frenzy, to strap the next big shot for apparent new romance. and soon, it would set into motion a deadly series of events. that would spread shock and grief around the world! coming up! paparazzi close in on them.
