The Secret Affairs Diana was still just a teenager when she was put under the pressure to be a perfect princess in the media.

Combined with her unhealthy marriage, it was enough to make her spiral into a deep depression, and she became bulimic. She had so much empathy for other people, that a particularly difficult meeting visiting the poor, sick, and wounded made her mental health a lot worse.

Instead of recognizing that she needed help, Diana was treated like a child throwing a tantrum, and the royal family continued to ignore her issues. William was born when Diana was 20 years old.

Just barely out of her teenage years, she was supposed to raise a future king. Little William brought a lot of joy and purpose to her life.

During interviews, the press would mostly ignore her while they spoke with Charles, and only ask Diana how the baby was doing. Even though this was actually very demeaning to her, Diana's face would light up, and she would gush about how much fun she was having with him.

Even after giving birth to the heir, her relationship with her husband remained cold and distant. She eventually decided that if she was going to be stuck in an unfaithful marriage, she would have an affair, too.

When she was 23, Diana fell in love with a cavalry officer named James Hewitt. They were together about a year before her second son, Harry, was born.

In pictures showing the two of them side-by-side, it is easy to see why many people believe that James Hewitt may be Prince Harry's biological father. This is such a popular theory, that it was even turned into a stage play that was performed on the West End.

Diana pushed Charles to be more involved in raising the boys, instead of relying totally on nannies. When the boys were old enough to go out, she made sure they had normal experiences like water parks, McDonald's, and shopping.

She also brought them to homeless shelters to pass out hot tea and food. Prince Charles scoffed at these ideas, asking why it was really necessary.
