Charles and Diana’s First Meeting
According to the show, Diana first met Prince Charles while dressed as a “mad tree” from “A Midsummer Night’s Dream.” She hides behind foliage, creating a whimsical first encounter. The actual meeting was far more conventional. They met at a shooting party at Althorp in 1977. No costumes, no Shakespeare, and no hiding behind plants took place during their first introduction. This fabrication exemplifies how the series often sacrifices accuracy for theatrical storytelling.
