The Princess Diana Diaries 2: Royal Engagement
Season 3, Ep. 5
•
PART ONE OF TWO!!! Much like Lord of the Rings or Wicked or Breaking Dawn.
Our Princess Diana saga continues as we cover Princess Diana's engagement and early marriage. We also experiment with new, fun, podcast dynamics, such as eating candy directly into the microphone and throwing things across the room! We like to keep it fresh here on Girl Historians.
The girls also have their first fight, talk about Elton John and his shopping addiction, and Carley finally reveals her rising sign!
