A month removed from their ill-fated South Korean adventure, Prime Minister John Major took to the floor of British parliament to announce that the Prince and Princess of Wales would be separating.
An unusual hush fell over the House of Commons as Major tried softening the blow, knowing a national television audience was watching, by adding the two had no plans to divorce and would continue their royal duties separately as future King and Queen Consort. How that was supposed to work was anybody’s guess, but appropriately Charles and Diana were in different parts of Britain as the announcement was being made, and neither commented on it.
