Yes, I think so too. If we watch other pics from this event, the "darlings" gave another impression. And I can hardly believe, that they have a row in front of people and cameras and with an open window! Probably the poster needed some pocket money.

It could be but the pic could've been taken just as Camilla was about to speak, just as Charles was making a hand gesture; the possibilities are endless. Even if the caption rings true, every couple has disagreements. No big deal.

Hello all:
This is my first posting, but I am glad to identify the tiara worn by HRH The Duchess of Cornwall in the 2 pix posted by Flower007. It was made for Queen Mary for the Delhi Durbar in 1911, when she and King George V travelled there to be crowned as the Emperor & Empress of India (the only monarchs to have done so). Originally, Queen Mary used large emerald drops known as the Cambridge Emeralds (also used interchangeably with pearl drops in the Grand Duchess Vladimir tiara owned by HM The Queen and inherited from Queen Mary) to stand upright at various points on this tiara. The tiara was made by Garrard's especially for the Durbar in India, and was referred to by King George V as, "...May's best tiara." In fact, it should be more correctly termed a "diadem", since it fully encircles the head. I've not seen this jewel in any photograph, and am not aware of its having been used by anyone since Queen Mary's death in 1953. Queen Mary left it to the late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, who in turn left it to HM The Queen. It is the personal property of HM The Queen, and is not part of the Crown Jewels. Also, when used originally in India in 1911, the Cullinans III and IV were set centrally.

They look great together. She has class, humor, from what I can see, I do not know her or any of these "people". ..and I can relate to the horse comments I hear she got so much of growing up. Anywho. I hope she is feeling better.

Thought not the most interesting watch/read for me, the recent program about the Duchess of Cornwall did at least one good thing – for the first time I saw this breathtaking picture of the Duchess of Cornwall during her debutant ball -----> Picture
Camilla looks very elegant and very beautiful here, it's probably one of my favourite early pictures of the Duchess.

How do you think she would look with her hair like that today?

I think so too. Would make her face more youthful and would be a nice change.

I think she is very pretty in the debutante pictures. She really should wear the hair up like that more, or perhaps cut her hair much shorter. It is said that shorter hair makes older people look younger for some reason. Shorter and lighter = youthful, supposedly.
Here are two pics of Camilla looking very happy, from February this year, in the Middle East. She and Charles are arriving in Kuwait at the airport. She looks so happy. I think she enjoyed her Middle East trip a lot. http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=638jygl http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=5xpb149 I'm sorry they didn't come out so well. I took them with my camera from tv.

Thank you, CasiraghiTrio. She really has an incredible smile. I remember a press article about this visit. A guy who escorted C+C said that Camilla fascinated all people there with her smile and above all with her blue eyes.
By the way, its a good idea to take pics from tv. (For private, of course.)

Many more photos
The Prince of Wales Family It is a slideshow, you can view photos of Charles, Camilla and their family, so many of Princes William and Harry, a few of Harry with Chelsy, and some old photos with Diana being with her boys -- many new, many old, maybe even something blue! All photos are originally from: People magazine (US), Royalty magazine, Vanity Fair (US). I will add more soon.

Has anyone seen this picture of Prince Charles from 1980? I remember reading something about this prank of his, putting on the fake nose-glass disguise as a joke facing the press, but I've never seen it. I found it in an old book I haven't leafed through in years. What do you think? Prince Charles is a pretty funny guy, huh?
 The photo source is Tim Graham, a book he published in 1984 (or around then) to celebrate what was then only a decade of royal photographing.
