'Camilla wears trousers just like we do'

I think Camilla will be an involved member. The article has one of my favourite pics of the Duchess.

Calendar Girls Inspire Camilla

Calendar Girls? Erm - does that mean we can look forward to a photo of Camilla wearing nothing but one of her big hats and a strategically placed sunflower one of these days? That'd sell calendars by the boatload.

Norwegian VG has a nice article on the Duchess and her increasing popularity and says Charles has found himself a "Real Woman" ("En grepa dame" very Norwegian and very untranslatable, but its positivley ment) They says she master the thin line between beeing close to the people and having the royal distance, and that she is especially good with the people bit. Also about how she removed her shoes and wore a veil in Egypt and that the host was touched by her natural gestures, other than that it refers the recent stories posted on the bord from the Times, the Daily Telegraph and the Oldie

'Camilla related to Madonna'http://www.irishexaminer.com/breaking/story.asp?j=203043395&p=zx3x44zyx&n=203044281

I'm also a descendant of Zacharie Cloutier, through my mother's family. (My mother isn't so enthralled with genealogy. When I told her we were related to Madonna, I had to specifically tell her "The singer, not the Virgin"!)

Ha!Ha! That made me laugh.

Horse and Hound are a bit slow, that was announced at the beginning of March!

I guess it just didn't fit into an earlier issue!

 

[criscarangi]

i,m sorry to desagree but as a grat fan of the late princess diana i have nothing against the duchess of cornwall,but the great glamour that the late princess brought to the british royal family is inraplaceble.each family has a carismatic person,one only star and for me the windsors will just recuperate their old position,not talking about the queen who second me is perfect or the duke of edinburg who performs very well his whole,but as a family the shadow of the u.k royal family will vanish,just when prince william takes over the trone

 

[Elspeth]

Hi criscarangi,

Welcome to the forum! If you want to discuss Diana, we have a separate subforum devoted to her. This forum is for discussion of Camilla's current events; you may be more interested in the Charles and Camilla, What Do You Think Of Them Now thread.

I think they are right, she has mastered the thin line between being close to the people whilst maintaining the royal distance and all important discreet silence on her private life.
Thank You for that Larzen!

 

[michelleq]

I agree also. Camilla is the perfect wife, esp. for Charles. She is the perfect help mate and Charles is so at ease with her. He seems to have gain a well sense of being (perhaps to vocal on some things) but none the less.

Hats off to Camilla:

Harry hits right note with royal newly weds


A SONGWRITER from Harlow is thrilled to bits after a tune he penned to celebrate the marriage of Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles prompted a personal response from the Duchess of Cornwall.

He does say that but, I think he must have been misquoted or confused.

To change the subject a bit, I love her new look. She isn't frumpy and old looking anymore, I love her makeover she looks very lady like and glamorous.

She certainly looks lovely in the photo's from the wedding.

I was shopping yesterday and a lady asked for a "Camilla Collar". The shop assistant didn't have a clue but I poked my nose in and said, "Do you mean Camilla as in Charles and?". She said yes and that she'd noticed that all Camilla's jackets including her wedding gown had a certain shape to the collar and she wanted one. She said a friend had asked for a "Camilla Collar" and she'd got one - so, has HRH made a mark on the fashion world?

 

[Saragli]

I like her collars. They are very elegant and flattering for all women especially older women.

How improved she is physically compared to her first pix
It shows that she is happy and I am happy for her too
I always defended her
