In an interview with the Sunday Times last year, Charles spoke about his childhood with Diana – and the impact their parents' divorce had on the siblings.
"Diana and I had two older sisters who were away at school, so she and I were very much in it together and I did talk to her about it," he said.
Charles was sent to boarding school when he was eight
"Our father was a quiet and constant source of love, but our mother wasn't cut out for maternity. Not her fault, she couldn't do it," he continued. "While she was packing her stuff to leave, she promised Diana [then aged five] she'd come back to see her. Diana used to wait on the doorstep for her, but she never came."
