Recently, Buckingham Palace hosted an event to commemorate Victory Day, a tribute to the culmination of World War II. In an act that combined solemnity and tradition, the British monarch, Charles III, led a military procession.
Followed by an air parade, surrounded by active members of the monarchy and prominent figures of royalty. However, one of the most striking moments was the unexpected reunion between the king and Sarah McCorquodale, Lady Di's older sister.
Charles III's meeting that would make Lady Di very happy
The meeting, which took place in an atmosphere filled with formality, did not go unnoticed by the attendees. According to People magazine, Sarah McCorquodale was invited to the event and occupied a prominent place in the front row.
Just a few people away was Charles III, with whom she shared a brief but cordial conversation. Despite the rumors that have always surrounded their past relationships, the greeting between them was genuine.
This reunion, of course, evoked memories of their shared history. Before Charles III met Diana, Sarah McCorquodale and the British monarch had a brief relationship in 1977.
Although the relationship was never officially confirmed at the time, several reports claim that they shared a fleeting romance. However, this relationship ended when Sarah Spencer, in a series of statements, confessed that she didn't feel in love.
Charles III and Lady Di's sister kept a relationship
Over time, Charles III fell in love with Diana Spencer, which led to an official engagement and, eventually, marriage. A union that would mark the beginning of a media-driven and tumultuous era in the history of the British royal family.
Although the relationship was brief, Diana's sister has remained close to royalty over the years. Today, Sarah McCorquodale continues to be a relevant presence at royal events.
In fact, she keeps a good relationship with Prince William and Prince Harry. A fact that shows that, despite the ups and downs, the ties between the Spencer family and the British royalty remain strong and cordial.
This reunion on Victory Day symbolized the mutual respect that persists between Charles III and Sarah. Besides a reconciliation with the past and a testament to how family connections, although often complex, can overcome the tensions of time and history.
