People spend a lot of money on weddings. You must have also seen many expensive and expensive weddings. In such a situation, if we talk about royal weddings, then a lot of money is spent in them. The marriage of Prince Charles and Princess Diane, which took place 40 years ago in Britain, was also done in a very royal way, but a piece of their wedding cake has been sold after 40 years for 1,850 pounds . This piece of cake is one of 23 official wedding cakes that the British royal couple served at their wedding.
The royal ‘Coat of Arms’ in a base made of cake icing and almond sweets featured elaborate designs adorned with gold, red, blue and silver. The piece was given to Moya Smith, a member of the Queen Mother’s staff, who preserved it with a film with a tight grip and dated 29 July 1981.
Smith had placed the icing in an old cake tin and pasted a handmade label on its lid that read, “Touch carefully – the wedding cake of Prince Charles and Princess Diana.”
His family sold this cake to a collector in 2008. People from all over the world participated in the bidding and a piece of cake was sold to Gerry Leighton. The piece was expected to fetch just £500, but auctioneers say they are “surprised” by the price it received.
Prince Charles first met Lady Diana in 1977, when he visited his older sister Sarah’s house in Althorp as a lover. From here, a series of meetings started between the two, which soon reached the mouth of marriage. Prince Charles married Lady Diana on 29 July 1981 at St Paul’s Cathedral.
After 11 years in 1992, the two separated. In 1996, both of them also divorced each other. Diana was killed in a car accident in 1997.
