The Onset of Diana’s Bulimia

“The Crown” suggests Diana’s bulimia began right after her engagement due to Charles’s continued relationship with Camilla. The timing is inaccurate. Diana herself revealed her eating disorder started earlier, triggered by broader pressures of royal life and various stresses. The show simplifies a complex mental health struggle for narrative convenience. This misrepresentation of eating disorders does a disservice to understanding mental health challenges.
