Answer 2

I have just recently seen a documentary on Diana’s secret tapes revealed where she talks about her childhood, her teenager years, her engagement and her unfortunate married life to Prince Charles. Diana had a miserable childhood, which led to her excessive crave of attention, so throughout her entire marriage she was literally crying for out attention from Charles. Since Charles was still in love with Camilla, Diana admits that she was full of envy and jealously. Her emotional outburst and over-reacting in certain occasions just added the fuel to her disastrous marriage.

Both Prince Philip and the Queen, never “hated” Diana, however, they were very disappointed with regards to her “emotional and mental instability.” Diana had done some outrageous and terrifying things that any in-laws, nonetheless for both Prince Philip and the Queen would find it horrifying and disturbing. Diana, admitted to over-react on certain occasions, like throwing herself down the stairs while she was months into her pregnancy with Prince William, cutting her wrist, stabbing her own neck and inner thighs with a sharp pen with blood trailing down her entire body, simply because she wanted to get Prince Charles’ attention.

It was only after when Diana teamed up with her friend and authors for her “biography” that led Prince Philip and the Queen to feel a sense of “betrayal”, sadness, disappointment and anger. To the royals or even to any common families this was an “embarrassment” and an invasion to privacy. To tell the public what was supposed to be “private”, and this “biography” was really a one-sided story.

During Diana's marriage to Prince Charles, Diana shared a very close relationship with her father-in-law, they consistently wrote letters to each other. Diana wrote about her emotions regarding Charles affair with Camilla, and how it is affecting her life, and Prince Philip always wrote back with sympathy and encouragement, and signed as “Love Pa.” Prince Philip adored Diana, however, all these terrifying emotional outburst and finally the “betrayal” was simply just too much for the royal family.

Answer 3

No I do not think he hated her but you must admit she gave the Royal family quite a headache she certainly was no angel.

Answer 4

No. You should try the inquest site to get a more accurate read on these letters. Philip tried acting as marriage counselor to Diana and Charles. He was flummoxed by his son's behaviour and tried to help Diana. Sometimes the two were angry with each other(especially when Diana helped write  that book,Diana:Her True Story) but Diana and Philip had a pretty good relationship.

The "therapist" behind this report has, or is going to write a book about Diana and I'm afraid can not be considered trustworthy.Everyone who testifies isn't going to give the whole story;you'll need to go through the evidence yourself and see.

Answer 5

No, I don't think he hated Diana.  I think he was just as critical of her as I am of my daughter-in-law.  It is just normal criticism.

Answer 6

Let's see.  She got all the attention. She ran around groping the men of the palace and elsewhere.  She publicly complained about his son’s unfaithfulness.  She, herself, was unfaithful and was photographed in public in ways that were unbecoming for a royal….

He sure had reasons to dislike her.

Answer 7

I think they found her very difficult to handle. I am sure they also became angry with her in the same way as any of us would in the circumstances. Hate I think not. Dislike at the end more than likely

Answer 8

No, I don't believe that Prince Phillip on anyone else in the Royal family hated Diana.  I do think they were frustrated and confused with her erratic behavior.  Certainly there must have been times when he was angry, but "hate" is too strong.

best of luck to you!

Answer 9

How insulting to the British Royal Family and what hate filled answers ,Words fail me ,Even Diana who was badly wronged dident escape the Wrath ,No they got on well from reports ,I am not a fan of Phillip or Charles ,Open their mouths and anything comes out, But the  ageist remarks about the Queen disgusts me ,

Answer 10
