A year after they began dating, Britain's Prince Charles – now King Charles III – and Lady Diana Spencer were married in 1981, in a televised ceremony hailed as "the wedding of the century". As the newly titled Prince and Princess of Wales, they embarked on an elaborate honeymoon that included a two-week Mediterranean cruise, ending with a stay at Balmoral, the royal family’s estate in the Scottish Highlands.

Though intended as a private getaway, the honeymoon included several press photocalls. In this image, the couple is seen posing for photographers by the River Dee, which flows through Balmoral. According to royal biographer Andrew Morton, their time in the Highlands was spent taking long walks through the hills surrounding the estate.
