In light of the several upcoming engagements for W&K while H&M allegedly take a 6 week break!

I like the fact that Camilla is always game.
She always gives the photographers a good photo.

The wedgewood blue really suits her.

I just think it's amazing how she's turned her image around. From being absolutely vilified, she is generally seen as a 'good egg' now. She never makes anything about her, she gets on with the job, supports Charles and never moans.

“ She never makes anything about her, she gets on with the job, supports Charles and never moans.”
Frankly, she of all of them had the least to moan about. Seriously crap press at one stage- almost entirely because she behaved properly appallingly. Rehabillitated. Own lovely house. What looks like a very happy relationship. Occasional light royal duties. Positive press and status as National Treasure. Very skilled dresser. Cupboard full of spectacular hats.

But I’m sure she’d rather be living a quiet life out of the spotlight. Anyone would really. I would hate her life.

“But I’m sure she’d rather be living a quiet life out of the spotlight. Anyone would really. I would hate her life.”

She practically does. Have you seen many pictures of her at home, with her grandchildren, enjoying her day to day to day life?

EleanorReally · 18/11/2019 11:53

Camilla is lucky, she has ridden the media storm and they largely ignore, and she does have a good dress sense

EleanorReally · 18/11/2019 11:53

And I think Camilla is a nice lady.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/11/2019 12:12

Oh yes @CurlyWurlyTwirly, James Ogilvy is still a handsome man!

A nice lady who had a long-running affair with a married man. Ok then.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/11/2019 12:36

I’m a big Diana fan. But she passed a long time ago.
Even she and Charles were cordial prior to her death. Unhappy people can do horrible things, I like to think that if Diana had lived, she would have moved on and been accepting.

IfWishesWereFishes · 18/11/2019 12:50

Oh, I was no Diana fan either. I'd like to see the RF abolished, frankly.

That's why I've got my sycophancy radar set high.

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/11/2019 13:00

Not a peep in the press about Harry & Meghan.
Andrew couldn’t have timed his interview better.

BertrandRussell · 18/11/2019 13:08

Is there something new pending about Harry and Meghan?

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/11/2019 13:10

I think she breathed particularly hard this morning @BertrandRussell, that may do it!

CurlyWurlyTwirly · 18/11/2019 13:13

No, I was just saying the timing was good because it coincides with their time off. It will be the Andrew nonsense then the election.
Newspapers just want columns filling.

Whattheother2catsprefer · 18/11/2019 13:27

It's the medals that are throwing PC's jacket out of line. Too heavy to wear with just one button done up.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 18/11/2019 13:34

I don't know that I find having an affair with someone else's husband forgivable, but it's not my battle. Harry and William seem to be OK with her and they know more about the ins and outs of their parents' relationship than the public is ever likely to.

It colours my opinion of her though. Frankly she and C deserve each other, they both seem daft old sticks.

Myimaginarycathasfleas · 18/11/2019 13:34

I didn't mean deserve, I meant suit.

BertrandRussell · 18/11/2019 13:59

Charles’s jacket’s a bit winky here too.......odd.

William and Kate are going to the Royal Variety show tonight so we should get some good frock to discuss later.

QueenOfTheAndals · 18/11/2019 18:29

So what do we think Kate will wear tonight? Something new or a rewear? If a rewear then I'm going for one of her lace dresses.

OP posts:
QueenOfTheAndals · 18/11/2019 18:32

Well it looks lacy but new. I don't think I like it as much as some of her other black lace dresses.

OP posts:
itswinetime · 18/11/2019 18:32

I'm going to guess rewear one of her sparkly numbers maybe?

megletthesecond · 18/11/2019 18:33

It's black lace McQueen 👍.
