This is how Princess Diana confronted Camilla about the affair

After being advised by friends to ignore suspicions of an affair between her husband Prince Charles and long-time friend Camilla Parker Bowles, Princess Diana felt that she had to give her husband’s mistress a piece of her mind, according to archived recordings from National Geographic. Diana knew what she was getting herself into when she approached Camilla about the affair, and apparently so did Prince Charles. Camilla and Prince Charles were chatting with another friend in a downstairs room when Diana asked to have a moment alone with Camilla. According to the recording, Diana remembered Charles frantically running upstairs asking the friend what Diana was going to do.

Although the Princess of Wales said that she was “terrified” of Camilla, Diana told her boldly, “I’d just like you to know that I know exactly what is going on.”

Camilla attempted to avoid the claim by saying she did not know what Diana was talking about. Diana remembered Camilla saying that she had “everything she could ever want” and “all the men in the world.” When asked what more she could want, Diana told the Camilla, “I want my husband.”

Oddly enough, Diana apologized to Camilla for being in the way of her and Charles, but she was still outraged. “I do know what is going on,” she said to Camilla. “Don’t treat me like an idiot.”

A fool Diana was not, because by 1994 Charles admitted to his adultery, and in 1996, the couple filed for divorce. As we all know, Prince Charles eventually married Camilla in 2005. Learn the real reason why Charles didn’t marry Camilla in the first place.

How Diana confronted Camilla was brave and scary; she was sleepless that following night. Diana said that even though she still felt jealous, she also felt a “tremendous shift” afterward. Next, find out 9 secrets no one knew about Princess Diana until after her death.
