Echoes of past turmoil resurfaced, with an estranged royal receiving cheering fans on one side of town, while reserved applause filled a dignified palace garden party on the other. Reminiscent of the divisive 1990s, support wavered between Princess Diana and Prince Charles, reminiscent of their tumultuous era.
