  In June 1982, Prince William was born, followed by Harry in 1984.It seemed that the couple lived a happy life.Actually, Diana was very unhappy with her marriage, for Prince Charles was in love with another woman.She suffered from depression(抑郁症)after the birth of her first son and there was a rumor that she had an eating disorder.There were even stories that she had attempted suicide.Diana blamed Charles for their unhappy marriage.She said he didn’t seem interested in her and that he’d never loved her.Later after some embarrassing affairs for both of them, Charles and Diana divorced in 1996.
