Queen Camilla taking part in a documentary to highlight abuse of women

[OWRLOSERS]

Apoplectic that ITV have chosen Queen Camilla to host a documentary highlighting the domestic abuse of women when she was King Charle's OW for many years and complicit in his abuse of Princess Diana.

World gone mad!

Newsflash. Your opinion is your own. Not everyone else's. And I'm sure mumsnet will see that

Good @NotOneOfTheInCrowd. I was considering it.

I’m not a royalist, but I applaud Camilla for highlighting dv in this documentary. Same way that William has highlighted homelessness recently. People need to see the bigger picture and welcome anything that draws attention to these serious causes, rather than focusing on the lives of those people who are, rightly, using their positions to increase awareness.

Couldn't William help homelessness by you know, - getting the royal family to house homeless people in one palace?

You must be misguided to call it a comparison. It is the situation that is a comparison, not the person. A is to B, as C is to D.

Great, lets hope all the negative nancies get it deleted and then it takes away the promotion of the programme on here. Well done OW lovers.

Both Diana and Charles were unfaithful. Both forgave each other and had a good relationship after their divorce. If they were able to move on then you should too. I think it’s quite offensive to equate Diana’s situation with that if women who are subject to domestic violence and coercive control. Camilla has spent decades supporting women who have experienced these struggles. Maybe take the time to find out why she is creating the documentary with ITV before you rush to judgement.

His project is looking at far more than bricks and mortar

Well it’s about as credible as William being the homelessness expert

Regarding william

I just think it's a but much that a man who comes from a family with multiple palaces, -

A familt who have more homes than they could ever need, while people are living on the street:

talks about homelessness.

For a start, no Camilla is not Queen... She is and should be titled Queen Consort. Because that is what she is.
I have not been a royalist for many years, I have no time for them. But I do quite like Camilla.
And if domestic violence is a cause she chooses to support and a programme is made about it, which is including her support, then who gives a shit who she is and what she's done? Does it really matter if it's her or some celebrity female?
I'm sick of all this holier than thou postulation. Camilla and Charles should have been allowed to marry in the beginning. As for Diana, she was chosen for him purely because of her lineage. He didn't love her, he never did. It was to provide heirs to the throne and that is all. She was young and inexperienced when she became engaged then married. And as time went on, she didn't get the attention she'd have expected from her husband.
In affairs, it takes two to tango, she didn't force anyone to sleep with her! It truly pisses me off when people never blame the other party imvolved.
Anyway I digressed there, good on Camilla for the campaign, let her get on with it!

grow up. One could equally say that the posters harping on about Camilla clearly don’t give a fuck about victims of domestic violence.

That is missing OP's point though, the whole point of the thread.

Camilla is a bit manky.

I saw her talk the other day, and I thought that she was very rough.

Don't be so fucking ridiculous.

Hang on I thought the timeline was that Diana stepped-out on the fidelity first?

I didn't think he had ever claimed to be an expert. He's put together a group of experts (the major charities, numerous businesses) to run and evaluate six pilot projects. That may or may not be successful, but should at a very minimum give recent evidence on what did/didn't work, so should inform future interventions

Why did you think that?

No, Charles and camilla did it first

I think she's coming across well. Genuine and caring. Though I have to agree a bit about William and homelessness.

It's a shame Camilla can't escape Diana's shadow. I don't think she'd have been a good Queen.

The irony being he didnt get with her in the first place because she wasnt worthy, but over time protocols changed and the future king shacking up with the OW was suddenly all good.

Respect to Camilla. That is an excellent and important use of her position.

According to google...

Diana started a relationship with Barry Manakee in 1985 and Charles and Camilla restarted their relationship in 1986.

She never will.

If the king of another country was having an affair, then all of a sudden his first wife died, and he married the woman he was having an affair with.

I don't think the second woman would escape the shadow of the first woman. In any country.

No human is perfect - all are messy and complicated - saying someone is incapable of doing good because of past behaviour is ridiculous. There are plenty of ways to be a twat.
