Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.10 MARCH, 1979: wherever the bachelor Prince of Wales travelled - this was two years before his marriage - photographers loved to snap him with a young woman. On his second morning swim at Cottesloe Beach, Perth, Australia, the publicity-hungry Jane Priest took her chance, splashing past his personal detective to embrace the unwary prince.
10 MARCH, 1999: 20 years to the day - 20 years that saw the drama of a failed marriage, a tragic death and a highly public relationship - and still a glimpse of Prince and woman sets all photographers' pulses racing. Here, Charles, on his controversial trip to Argentina, performs the tango with Adriana Vasile at a state banquet in Buenos Aires.
