The Duchess of Cornwall Current Events 14: October 2013 - September 2022

[Iluvbertie]

That is just the search heading, they never changed it. In the text she is listed as Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall.

One day they might get it right. They either list her as still married to Andrew or as divorced from Charles but never with her title as Charles' wife.

Camilla, Duchess of Camilla is the form she would use if she was divorced - just as Diana went from HRH The Princess of Wales to Diana, Princess of Wales and Sarah went from HRH The Duchess of York to Sarah, Duchess of York when they were divorced.

Camilla seems to be becoming a regular on the literary circle now - Booker Prize, Hay Lit Fest, the Literacy charities. Its good they are giving her a few defined areas of interest to support.

Yes, I find it very interesting that she is in the literary clubs...

Wacky stuff. The DM reported this today:
Duchess of Cornwall pleads with country to support credit unions | Daily Mail Online
But nothing announced on the POW website: http://www.princeofwales.gov.uk/news-and-diary . Also no tweets from Clence House - and the Duchess was at a Winery today (and so was I - who knew). https://twitter.com/ClarenceHouse

I bothered to check because I think putting the paycheck loan sharks out of business would be a great thing. Apologies to any forum members who work in a check-into-cash establishment, I just think interest rates that abuse the poor exclusively are not a very morally defensible.

So, I wonder if Rebecca's report in the DM has any truth to it? There is a wicked bit of my soul that hopes someone fed her a bit of bad fish and she still bit on it!

Clarence House tweets today: "Her Royal Highness is a strong supporter of #creditunions and the role they can play in their local communities" So it is true!

And from the POW site: Credit Unions

That's rather a diffrent statement than the DM spin on it. No surprise.

What a trooper! I like her new shoes and the deeper or more vibrant lipcolor. She looks fabu.

Wow, makes you want to call her " Your Majesty". First time I've felt that vibe from her. I sure get it a lot from William. But this is the first time I've gotten a peek into her future!
Looks a bit like she tasted something nasty in that shot, but still regal no doubt!

 

[Osipi]

I really like that picture of Camilla. It is formal yet it shows her with a kind of halo of softness around her. This was a fitting engagement for her to represent the Queen as she is very much an advocate of literacy and reading. I would bet my last burrito with sour cream that she's probably read the winning essays too.

She certainly looks very comfortable in what clearly appears to be her destiny.

She's wearing her hair much shorter recently.

She's wearing her hair much shorter recently.

And I think it really suits her.

 

[scooter]

Yes. At a certain age, the big Farrah Fawcett pouf becomes a bit ridiculous. This is a much more appropriate length for her.

Yes. At a certain age, the big Farrah Fawcett pouf becomes a bit ridiculous. This is a much more appropriate length for her.

I think as long as she keeps the hair off her face, she is fine. When it has not been done properly, it often covers half her cheeks, and I think that can be quite ageing.

 

[SElizabeth]

Yes this new hair style really suits her, it is softer and not so full around the face, she is looking very good these days.
