"I desperately wanted to get out of the wedding": Prince Charles knew his marriage to Diana was a "massive" mistake
Despite realizing his incompatibility with Diana, Charles felt powerless to do anything about it as breaking off the engagement "would have been cataclysmic"
Prince Charles, who proposed on February 3, 1981, and later married Princess Diana, reportedly admitted that he regretted the marriage, considering it a "massive mistake" and even mulled calling it off, according to an explosive new book on the British royal scion, who will soon turn seventy.
According to 'Charles At Seventy: Thoughts, Hopes And Dreams' by Robert Jobson, years later he told friends: "I desperately wanted to get out of the wedding in 1981, when during the engagement I discovered just how awful the prospects were."
