When Prince Charles and Lady Diana Spencer married in 1981, 750 million people around the world tuned in to watch the fairytale wedding, which eventually did not have a very happy ending. Fast forward 30 years to Friday and Prince William, the son of the late Diana, Princess of Wales, is getting married to Kate Middleton in a much publicized ceremony.
A fairytale princess, a fashion icon and a heart-broken single mother, Diana was the embodiment of her age at the turn of the century. Sadly, her death was also very much in tune with her age when a group of paparazzi on motorbikes hunted her down in Paris.
It is no surprise that her son William is following in her mother’s footsteps, working popular culture to his advantage whenever he can. He is the president of the England Football Association and organized a concert with his brother Prince Harry in 2007 for what would have been Diana’s 46th birthday, gathering such stars at Wembley Stadium like Sir Elton John, Kanye West and Andrea Bocelli.
