I agree Bru
Oi think peole have been very unfairly rude about her and unduly critical of Charles who was despite what they say obviously made desperately unhappy because all his life he had to do what was expected of him and i think was quite probably dismayed by in effect having to marry Diana and probably ended up feeling very overshadowed by her popularity which might have in turn affected his libido.
I have a lot of sympathy for him and really wish him well with his new wife
I think there is a powerful parallel with poor Princess Margaret who was also put off her main love by the royal protocol.
But the hats Camilla wore were so remarkable so despite the diamonds I consider that hat fair game for a laugh
