Looking forward to her visit.
Hopefully someone would come up with photos taken when Camilla was in Paris in 1963. She would have been just 15.

What type of visit is this? Is it official? Or some charity-related?
Ant details of her schedule?

The Duchess of Cornwall has delivered her first solo international speech in French to members of the Emmaus community in Bougival, Paris:
Camilla asked her addressees to forgive her "rather rusty French", explaining it was 50 years since she studied in the French capital-

The tone is hugely favourable as Emmaus is very very popular here in France. The thing is that she apparently asked to come and visit the french branch, so people are pleasantly surprised. Camilla is not a well known figure here, or to be honest known for the wrong reasons so the French are discovering her through one of the most popular charity of the country, which is a good thing.
The press is eager to underline the fact that it's her first solo trip abroad and that she's gaining more confidence and becoming a key figure of the BRF.
There's no dangerous comparison, no insinuation and no cynism ... for the moment. You can expect some from the yellow press next week ...
