Prince Charles and Princess Diana had a tumultuous, scandal-ridden marriage that spanned the 15 years between 1981 and 1996, when their divorce finally became official. While their union was marked with embarrassing rumours and affairs, there's nothing brighter than their children, William and Harry, to shed light over the dark spot that was cast by their split. Sadly, Diana was killed in a car accident in 1997, while Charles went on to marry Camilla, now the Duchess of Cornwall, in 2005. But the pair's former relationship will always be an important part of the royal family's history. Ahead, revisit some of their many moments together, including their wedding day and the joyful snaps after their sons' births.
