Yet there is something curious about the photograph.
Charles appears to tower over his new wife, with the top of Diana’s head barely reaching his eye level – an apparently significant height difference between two people widely reported to have stood around 5 feet 10 inches tall
And that impression isn’t limited to one photograph.
Images from throughout their marriage sometimes show Charles noticeably taller than Diana, while others put the couple almost eye-to-eye, prompting royal watchers to question how the difference could seemingly change from one photograph to another
Fiana looks much shorter
One fan highlighted the discrepancy in a Facebook video featuring photographs of the couple taken over the years.
“Why did Princess Diana look shorter than Prince Charles even though they were the same height? Diana
and Charles were both 178cm tall, but they were often photographed as if Diana were much shorter than Charles,” the caption reads.
