Books about Charles, Prince of Wales and the Duchess of Cornwall
I was rather bored by the whole book. It was written before it was known positively that Camilla and Charles would marry. The only time it moved me was to laugh that Camilla refused to curtsey to Sophie and that Sophie was mad about it.

Did she refuse to curtsey at Sophie before or after she married Charles? If it was before, why would she not cutrsey to her?

Sophie deserved that curtsey if Camilla was not married to Charles at the time. Quite distastefully rude behaviour. I hope Sophie doesn't curtsey to her.

Since you have the book out and lying open by your computer, what was the context for the great Non-Curtsey Snub? Didn't the author offer any comment? You'd have thought she would have realised people would be talking and asking questions? :)

I just retrieved the book and alas, it has no index. I will flip through to see if I can find the part I was referring to...

Okay, I just found it! Page 271-272.
"Few people actively object to Camilla anymore, except perhaps Sophie Wessex, who gets upset if Mrs. Parker Bowles doesn't curtsey to her." That's it, people. Sorry. No explanation. |
On page 270, the author claims that Sharon Osbourne reached out with both hands and squeezed Camilla's busoms at a Golden Jubilee pop concert at BP. Sharon then supposedly said "You've got gorgeous old t&ts". What aplomb!

I recently bought and read this book by Rebecca Tyrell and I wonder wether it's rewritten a bit to bring the latest developments into it. It ends before the marriage but refers to Camilla as the new Duchess of Cornwall. This fact was only known after the announcement of the engagement. Probably there are different issues of this book and I happend to buy the latest one.

I haven't read the book but I have a question. If the snub is true..where is it supposed to have happen? I know we don't know what goes on 24/7, but I can't imagine that Sophie and Camilla met several times in private and if that is the case, I can't imagine her not curtesying. That would be rude and if Camilla was trying to be accepted by the masses (in this case the Royal family) I can't imagine her snubbing Sophie, who is adored by the Queen. Does that make sense?
