To think Camilla should not have been crowned Queen

[Viviennemary]

She should have been Princess Consort as we were told she would be. Instead the usual airbrushing of history to try and make her acceptable by clever spinning. And positive press. Bit sickening since Edward VIII had to abdicate over marrying a divorced woman.

The whole thing with Diana was because he wasn't allowed to marry the woman he loved. He should have been allowed to marry camilla from the start. Being forced to marry someone you don't love never makes anyone happy and royalty is no exception. It destroyed three generations of that family- Edward, Margaret and Charles.

I take it you dislike women, OP?

You think we should have gone against the wishes of Queen Elizabeth? Why?

A church that was literally founded so the monarch of the time could declare himself head of it and divorce and remarry several times.

This might be the silliest thread on MN today.

Get over it. Ffs.

Oh, hi Viv. We've been expecting you. By the way, the world has changed a bit since Edward VIII. Sorry, I thought you knew.

Bow down to your queen ! You are not fit to look at her shoes.

Yes, Camilla should be thankful, history shows she should have been beheaded.

All of that happened 40 years ago, and Diana definitely wasn't averse to sleeping with married men. By contrast Charles and Camilla have been happily married for 18 years. How do you manage to get through life obsessing about grudges over things that happened 40 years ago to people you don't even know?

True love conquers all.

Yes, you are.

Some posts simply aren't worthy of intelligent discourse, including this one about the validity and worthiness of a woman who has been married to the heir to the throne for 18 years. If the late Queen was happy for Camilla to be called Queen after all the damage her relationship with Charles did to the Crown then I'm pretty the wider public can.

🤷 she's married to the king. Does it even matter if she's called queen or queen consort or whatever?

Two people you don’t know cheated throughout a marriage with multiple people you also don’t know. Over 25 years ago.

OP, you do know it was Diana who shagged away from home first?

And went on to shag several married men - breaking up at least one marriage and stalking another man and his wife.

No both adulterers

Thank goodness times have changed and the Monarchy recognise that women shouldn't be shamed for being divorced and they are moving a little bit closer to sexual equality within the rules of the Royal Family. Charles was divorced from Diana after all but it's not being argued that he shouldn't be King because of it.

It’s Viviennemary…

She's not my queen that's for sure. And I think it was wrong to make her such a thing.

The British public certainly has a short memory

You might want to bring that to the attention of the head of the Church of England… oh, hang on.

Charles is a widower so is free to marry in the eyes of the church. Camilla isn't.
I don't think the royal family can afford to be moralistic about divorce. What about Henry V111?
I don't think we should have either a King or a Queen but as we do Camilla should be Queen.

Since when has being an adulterous stopped someone being king or queen? Did you not study History at school?

And yet divorced people can get married in church. And Charles and Camilla's wedding was blessed by the church in a service of prayer and dedication. And they have both been crowned by the Archbishop of Canterbury in a church. If the church can cope with it, why can't you?
