Brian Clinton: Prince Charles and Lady Diana On Wednesday, the twenty-ninth of July 1981, His Royal Highness the Prince of Wales and the Lady Diana Spencer exchanged wedding vows in front of an approving audience of nearly a billion people worldwide. Their marriage had been termed the "Wedding of the Century" by some, and the British pulled out all the stops to make sure that it lived up to its name. Rarely has the world witnessed such a glittering panorama of pageantry and splendor. And rarely has a Royal Wedding involved such a universally loved and admired Royal Couple. For Charles, the witty, polo-playing Prince of Wales and Lady Diana, the endearing former schoolteacher, have captured the hearts of the world. But let no mistake be made about their lineage, despite their modern ways. Charles comes from a line of monarchs which reaches back for generations, and can trace his family tree back to King Charles II and the Stuarts. Coincidentally, Lady Diana boasts the same ancestor -- and, as the daughter of the eighth Earl Spencer, her credentials as England's future Queen are impeccable.
