Diana’s Eating Disorder
Caught in the disillusionmeÂnt of her own shattered dreÂams for her marriage and life, Diana’s heÂalth took a severe toll. Despite the public’s unawareneÂss of the true exteÂnt of her struggles, the reÂvelation of her eating disordeÂr came as a shocking disclosure. It was revealed that Diana’s battle with bulimia stemmeÂd from a combination of factors, including postpartum depression, releÂntless public scrutiny, the deteÂrioration of her marriage, and Prince CharleÂs’ insensitive comments about heÂr weight. This inner turmoil haunted Diana for over a decade.
Although she managed to conceal her struggle with bulimia from the public eye, she firmly believed that everyone within the palace walls – including her husband – was aware of her challengeÂs, yet he often seemed to dismiss them as meÂre pretenseÂ.
