He Used To Be A Very Eligible Bachelor
We don’t think it’s surprising that Prince Charles had a lot of female fans when he was younger. Despite this, he had always had a soft spot for one particular woman. When he visited Diana Frances Spencer’s family home in 1977, he met her. He didn’t think of her as a romantic potential until the early 1980s when he was looking for a spouse. He ultimately asked her to marry him in February 1981.

For a time, the engagement was kept under wraps. The couple married at St Paul’s Cathedral a few months after the proposal. The so-called “wedding of the century” was a lavish occasion with 3,500 people in attendance. It was also broadcast on television, reaching a global audience of 750 million people. At the time, Diana was 20 years old.
