[quote from the newspaper article]
"In 1981, I was in London to cover the marriage of Prince Charles to his much younger and beautiful bride. As luck would have it, my press seat in Westminster Abbey overlooked the altar and I could see, just 25 feet away below me, the mother of the groom. And I was astonished, throughout the whole ceremony, by the grim visage of Queen Elizabeth. Not the beaming, proud face that one would think be apparent on this joyous occasion of her son's marriage. But a joyless face without a smile throughout. In retrospect years later, it was easy to surmise that there was a premonition of something sad that was going to happen – and did."
BINGO!
