Has Charles ever actually said he never loved Diana though?
I know there was the ‘whatever love is’ comment at their engagement, which must have been devastating for her to hear, but am sure he did have feelings for her.
How many of us have thought we ‘loved’ someone, only to realise there are different definitions of love?
I imagine when Charles was at Diana’s bedside, just after William was born, he felt he really loved her then.
Whether he still felt the same pull after the birth of Harry a couple of years later, who knows?
And yes, his heart probably always belonged to Camilla, but that doesn’t mean that in his own way he didn’t love the mother of his two children, at least in the early years.
Charles obviously had to have had an attraction to Diana in order to produce kids with her, he may have cared for her in the beginning as she was a pretty girl, sweet and innocent- but it doesn't mean he loved her or was willing to sacrifice for her, or be faithful long term. He always had Camilla on the back burner, waiting until his job of fathering kids was done, it seems.
Wearing her cufflinks on their honeymoon is an atrocious thing to do. She was always on his mind. That's love. Diana was used, sadly.
