It must be so nice for Prince Charles to have Camilla with him now - not so lonely when doing formal engagements, they look so happy together!

I'm not sure if this is considered news but a rather interesting article about Camilla and James Hewitt....

Hewitt: Camilla's attractive

PRINCESS Diana's former lover James Hewitt has said Prince Charles's
new wife Camilla is "quite attractive".

Hewitt said of the Duchess of Cornwall: "There's a certain raw
appeal. She's county set, and I think that can be quite attractive,
yeah."

And Hewitt claimed in the magazine interview that Diana would have
wished Charles and Camilla luck in their marriage.

"She'd have said `Good luck to them'," he told Zoo magazine.

"She would have recognised the pressure and press interest because
she was so used to unfair press coverage."

Asked about his relationship with the late princess, he said: "The
situation that Princess Diana and I were in made it exciting and
sexy because it was risky.

"The danger spiced it up a bit, if you know what I mean."

Hewitt, who appeared in Channel 4's The Games and is now appearing
in the ITV1 show Celebrity Wrestling, had a five-year affair with
Diana.

Six years ago he published a book about his romantic liaison with
the princess and his experiences in the 1991 Gulf War.

He was criticised for saying he would sell love letters she wrote to
him
during their affair in the 1990s.

At the peak of his career?

James Hewitt....
Hewitt, who appeared in Channel 4's The Games and is now appearing
in the ITV1 show Celebrity Wrestling, had a five-year affair with
Diana.

From a five year-affair with HRH The Princess of Wales... to an appearance on "Celebrity Wrestling."

I don't know if this reflects on Diana, or Hewitt, or both.

I think it would be kinder to leave diana out of it

True

I think it would be kinder to leave Diana out of it

True, but some of her 'friends' have let her, and her memory, down badly.

 

[susan alicia]

I know, she could not know how he would turn out to be, his behaviour is not her responsibility and she is not here to defend herself

True, but some of her 'friends' have let her, and her memory, down badly.

 

[HMQueenElizabethII]

The Duchess will undertake her first solo engagement:
May 23rd:
The Duchess of Cornwall, President of the National Osteoporosis Society, will visit the Osteoporosis Centre and then open the MRC Epidemiology Resource Centre, Southampton General Hospital, University of Southampton, Hampshire SO16 6YD

 

[gaggleofcrazypeople]

Good luck to her!

 

[corazon]

this is true?

 

[Alexandria]

this is true?

This is a notorious tabloid. I wouldn't put more than a penny's stock in it -- and even that is too much.

Camilla was probably demonstrating something and some photographer took the picture and the imaginative writers at the Globe built a story around it.

 

[carlota]

oh my god... i agree with alexandria. don't know for certain if it's true or not, but it seems totally false...
do you think that if she done that charles would have fought so much to marry her?

that's just a silly tabloid.

Camilla does looked attractive for her age now. She has cleaned up quite nicely since the engagement announcement. Certainly a far cry from in the words of one of her biographers "an old rag who looks like she hasn't had a wash in two weeks".

 

[Genevieve]

this is true?

She's clearly pointing at something or someone in this photograph. Yet it's been interpeted as her kicking Charles out???

First of all, if the relationship ends, it would not be Charles getting the heave ho. It would be Camilla. Clarence House is officially Charles's residence. If their marriage ends for whatever reason, Camilla would be the one who would have to leave the home, not Charles.

The Globe readers should really do some more research before writing any more of their fiction. Get at least one detail right even if the rest of the story is out and out false.
