Its easy and cheep too. Just find a good injector. But I do not think that Camilla has had it done. Going over the photos for the last six months it looks like some Glyco peels or a course of Micro dermabrasion. Or maybe something a lot simpler LOVE.

Yuk to the Botox, it is unlikely anyone would have missed her having dermabrasion or peels..... we all know how Kay fro the Dirty Mail likes to 'comment' on anything even remotely negative he can think of. She is probably just using some of the new moisturising creams and as you say, lots of love!

Has anyone heard a story about "Scotland Yard at the palace: who tried to poison Camilla?" - that was the headline in a yellow mag (one of the worst, to be honest) I saw this morning at the newsstand when I went to fetch fresh rolls from the bakery next door. I wonder if the whole thing is invented and if so - who does invent a story like that?

I had a quick trawl through the news channels and papers here, but have been unable to find anything. Such a story would certainly have made the front pages here, I would have thought!

That's no secret, it's the writers sitting in the magazine's back office. Seriously.

Yes, but this is different from the normal cases of invented stories. I mean: the queen hates Camilla, Camilla feels unloved, Charles and Camilla had a row- stories like that are easily invented as no one can prove or disprove them. But police at the palace because of a poisoning attempt? That's a rather serious claim, so I really wondered. But thanks for checking, Skydragon.

Jo ,i remember that a read the headline of a similar story some weeks ago. I think it was the magazine ´Die Aktuelle´. Maybe it´s boring for the readers to read every week again and again about a seperation of C&C, or that Camilla was banned of the Royal Family... So these writers need new stuff and they know that only a few people are interested in the truth of their stories.
Other Royal Houses have lawyers who take these papers to court ( also in countries abraod). But i never heard that the British Royals did something like that.

Queen out-dazzled by Camilla the diamond duchess in Commonwealth visit | the Daily Mail

Hope the link works. Does everybody like the way Camilla wears jewelry? I don't know if I do or don't like this style on Camilla. This is her second necklace made in this rows and rows of jewels. Do you like it or do you think a few less rows would be nicer?

Seriously, you have to bring out the baubles at the State Functions. Otherwise everything in your jewelry wardrobe wouldn't get used!

The Duchess is wearing Mrs Greville's baubles which belonged to The Queen Mother. QUEEN MOTHERS JUWEL CASKET | TIARA

I think Camilla can carry off the look, which is good for her, because there are lots and lots of pretties like that in the Royal safes and they should be worn so they can be seen and enjoyed.

It's probably better that further discussion of Mrs Greville's necklace be continued in the Duchess of Cornwall Jewellery thread.

thanks,

I don't believe all these absurd stories. I think the press makes up most of them to have something to entertain people . So, people keeps discussing idiotic (and false) issues for weeks...Then, they makes up other nice bunch of falsehoods, and so on...They keep people busy speaking about futile things while the important ones are never discussed...

I read about Camilla doing the launch months ago, probably in Daily Mail as well. What's the surprise? Launching a new flagship isn't like flipping a burger. No one calls up Camilla, or any royal, on Monday to drop by the yard by end of the week. What's going on with this paper?! Must be really slow news from William and Harry's company. They are recycling old bits.
