Brightly-coloured Camilla gets into the Caribbean spirit
Taking inspiration from her vibrant surroundings, Camilla showed just how much she has embraced the Caribbean spirit when she stepped out in a striking purple outfit during a one-day visit to Saint Lucia.

Trinidad and Tobago are part of the Commonwealth Russo. They're independant but they have the Queen as their Head of State.

Thank you Dear, for clarifying!

No, George Maxwell Richards, 4th President of the Republic of Trinidad and Tobago is the Head of State. The Queen is only Head of the Commonwealth in this instance.

By no means insisting there is any truth to the article, if the Duchess of Cornwall did from time to time feel this way I could hardly blame her.

The curious thing is: Where are all these pics of a happy and relaxed Camilla are from?
Maybe we see another royal tour than the gossip magazine?

Of all the Royals, I think I enjoy Camilla and Charles the most. I think she has class.
And so what if she was tired? Can you imagine making a statement like that and having someone use it against you? Sheesh...we all get tired. Not that the Mail has in credibility, just shows how insipid that publication is.
Camilla and Charles have loved each other for a long time. I'm happy that they can be together.

Camilla purple(?) outfit was gorgeous.
Even if the article about her was true, I understand her, official trips are not always fun, and royals/politicians may feel tired, weather might be bad, making them even more tired. It's just life.
But from other posters comments I think that story might be totally made up, no surprise here, isn't it what tabloids are doing all the time to increase sales?

If that's not Imperialistic snobbery I don't know what is...If you even contemplate saying that when Australia eventually becomes a Republic I will find you and slap you silly...    
Trinidad and Tobago aren't indavidual nation's, rather, are the two larger islands in what is an archipelagic state. There are a further 21 smaller islands which are territorial protectorates.

Absolutely even if the DM story is true (which I highly doubt) then she IS showing class because as LadyCat says she is doing a good job of covering it up
