A cold truce breaks the union which proved a watershed for the Windsors
Article Abstract:
The lawyers of Charles, Prince of Wales, Diana, Princess of Wales, and Buckingham Palace have issued statements indicating that the divorce case of the royal couple will be heard on July 15 1996, when a decree nisi will be made. The decree absolute is due six weeks from that date. The divorce settlement, which comes after some hostility, is as much as 17 million pounds sterling, a large part of which is expected to be funded by Queen Elizabeth of the UK, as Charles does not have the means to make the settlement personally.
