The photo of Princess Diana that the British people loved, but Carlos hated: For this reason she was baptized the “Sleeping Beauty”

Princess Diana of Wales’s life took an unimaginable turn after walking down the aisle with Prince Charles. From being a preschool teacher she became part of the British royal family, a role that involved taking on multiple duties and public engagements that she had to attend.

Strict royal protocol means impeccable behavior at appearances by members of Buckingham Palace, and for the inexperienced and introverted young commoner, the world of the monarchy awaited a great challenge.

Unaccustomed to the exhausting events that take place daily and to which she began to attend, the daughter-in-law of Queen Elizabeth II, just 4 months after her marriage, starred in a photograph that went around the world.

The image of Princess Diana that touched the British people

Diana’s agenda was adding more activities every day. And on November 4, 1981, together with Carlos, she attended the Victoria and Albert (V & A) museum for the opening of the “Splendours Of The Gonzaga” exhibition, where she conquered everyone with the beauty and glamor of her.

As if taken from a fairy tale, she arrived wearing a beautiful white dress with lilac details, a strapless neckline, with hundreds of crystals decorating her princess-style skirt, signed by the designer Bellville Sasson.

A white pearl necklace with diamonds adorned her slim neck, in a look that everyone loved. The act was developing and a tired and fatigued Diana began to nod in front of the crowd.

The anecdote of that event will go down in history when in the middle of the act, the princess was seen asleep. Photographer Tim Graham’s lens captured the moment when she lowered her head and for minutes she closed her eyes for a deep sleep, reported the Telemundo portal.

At just 20 years old, the graphic of Princess Diana the next day was the cover of hundreds of London newspapers, which baptized her as “Sleeping Beauty” (The Sleepy Beauty).

This is the prediction of Diana of Wales about the future of the royal family that could come true

What for the British people was the most charming and loved postcard, for capturing a fragile, serene and beautiful princess. However, for her husband and her queen, it was an unforgivable slip that provoked her fury.

But what no one imagined would be the response from Buckingham Palace the next day. The good news from the royal family came to dispel gossip and celebrate the arrival of a new heir to the throne.

Diana was pregnant! The princess was expecting her first child, William. Her condition reasonably explained her sleepiness and tiredness, and thus the setback she experienced in her appearance was left behind for everyone, before the revelation that announced that the couple would have her firstborn.
