News about Camilla Parker Bowles

She is known by many today as the Princess of Wales, but depending on time and location, it has not always been that way. Since Kate's official entrance into the royal family in 2011, when she wed Prince William, she inherited an official royal title, but it was not the same one that many know her as today. Here, FEMAIL reveals the titles held by Kate, what they mean, and the appropriate time to use them. (Pictured from L to R, Kate as Duchess of Cambridge, Princess of Wales, Colonel-in-Chief of the 1st Queen's Dragoon Guards, and Colonel of the Irish Guards)

Queen Camilla has been doing her bit to economise. In an effort to cut the royal postage and stationery bill, as revealed here last month, she has jettisoned the traditional crested heavyweight envelopes. She likes to reply personally to as many letters as she can and always used envelopes embossed with the royal crest, sent out by £6 special delivery. Now her missives are dispatched in cheaper, unembossed envelopes and sent by normal second-class post. At 69p a pop, the palace's discounted business rate for second-class stamps, it saves a small fortune. A first-class Queen using second-class mail!

When Camilla Parker Bowles married Prince Charles , 19 years ago today, the Duchess of Cornwall was given access to one of the most important and exclusive jewellery collections in the world. The past 18 months have seen her wearing a number of the late Queen Elizabeth's favourite pieces. The Queen Consort received wedding presents in her own right, including some outstanding jewels from the Saudi Royal Family , and a plethora of personal pieces from her husband, many with sentimental meaning. Some, indeed, had once belonged to her great-grandmother, Alice Keppel, a  mistress to Edward VII, King Charles's great-great-grandfather - pieces which King Charles has enjoyed finding and buying for his wife since the early days of their rekindled relationship.

When the first dress that Jacques Azagury designed for Princess Diana fell short of records at auction late last year as the most expensive of her gowns to sell at auction, the couturier was travelling around India. He had withdrawn from fashion and closed his eponymous shop in Knightsbridge, south-west London, when the auction took place at Julien's Auctions in Los Angeles.

From 1981 to 2000, the King of Arlington, Texas, operated it with his business partner Chris Corbin as Le Caprice. It was purchased by billionaire Richard Caring in 2005, who closed it three years ago due to the pandemic, but the name and plans to relaunch it in a London hotel were mischievous. However, it is no surprise that it was King Le Caprice's version that thrilled and delighted London. The opulent, the undeniably popular, and the indelibly royal became a favorite haunt in St James's under Corbin & King's direction.

Prince Charles figured it was time to inform his children about the woman he adored two months before the Princess of Wales' death. He sat down together and shared how Camilla Parker Bowles re-entered his life, followed by a teenage passion affair, and made him so happy. William and Harry were extremely quiet when they had finished speaking, according to PENNY JUNOR (inset photo).

When finally he decided he'd marry the lady he'd marry, he had asked the question no fewer than three times. Prince Charles announced his marriage on February 24, 1981, after years of rumors over who would be his bride. His intended was, of course, Lady Diana Spencer, and the couple's union was seen as a fairy tale, despite one uncomfortable moment in their official interview that left his bride-to-be devastated and became a portent of their eventual break-up.

EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE: Princess Diana's first private secretary, Oliver Everett, has weighed in on his death and her subsequent dismissal by, the Princess of Wales. Oliver had to cope with Diana's increasing anxiety over Camilla Parker-Bowles. Despite his sympathies, he became a non-person and was fired by her in 1983. All he'd say was that he'd been 'frozen out.' Diana was suspected by the court of being too close to Charles, as he had been the Prince's personal secretary from 1978 to 1980. Queen Elizabeth gave him the Royal Library as a consolation award. Prince Harry, who attended the Bob Marley biopic's Jamaica premiere this week, has previously discussed the late reggae legend's passion for marijuana. Although Marley's smoking up to 18 joints a day was expected, Harry's previous consumption was much less notable, with the Prince insisting that "Marijuana actually did help me." diplomats are relieved that Fujitsu, the Japanese company behind the computer chip that destroyed postmasters' lives, has admitted its flaws, clearing the way for Emperor Naruhito's Covid-postponed state visit. Any trip to the United Kingdom made by the Emperor would have been a rallying call for the wronged postmasters, without admitting guilt.

Our analysts examine the movies expected to make waves at the Academy Awards, from jaw-dropping Oppenheimer to epic Napoleon and Saltburn's exuberant satire on class.

In 1995, Bashir's television interview with him attracted 23 million viewers, sparking a worldwide media buzz. Bashir said, "there were three people in this marriage," a reference to then Prince Charles' affair with Camilla Parker Bowles, now Queen Consort. Diana and Charles had been separated for three years by then and would divorce in 1996. Bashir later revealed that to gain access to the princess, she gave her brother, Earl Spencer, inaccurate bank information that indicated that his former head of security was receiving money from tabloids and the security companies to spy on his sister. Bashir told Diana a string of lies, claiming that Prince Charles was having an affair with then royal nanny Tiggy Legge-Bourke, which caused her to become pregnant and have an abortion as a result. However, Ms Brown (right), 70, who has written a series of books on Diana and the Royal Family, believes that if she had not been deceived by Bashir, she would have still speak to the public even if she hadn't been misled.

The auction took place on June 25, 1997, just weeks before the royal died after a car accident in Paris, France, in the Pont de l'Alma tunnel. The limited edition book of the event, which saw more than 79 designer gowns raise £2.57 million for charity, is expected to sell for between £3,000 and £5,000. For the sale, purple, Moroccan leather-bound guides were produced, which soon became a collector's item.

Prince Charles (right; left with Camilla), as he was then, whisked Camilla Parker-Bowles away to Scotland for a romantic break. On the Balmoral estate, the pilgrims were headed to Birkhall (inset), Charles' most awaited private bolthole. And it was there, on a freezing night in front of a roaring fire, where Charles sank to one knee in front of the woman he loved and asked the question.' It's no surprise that the King choose Birkhall, a place he once described as a "unique haven of cosiness and character" and which is rumored to be his favorite home. After all, it is said to be the only one of his residences where he can truly relax. He can stick on a pair of wellies and get a ramble, or sit in a favourite chair with the papers.

Prince George's godfather to the King of Norway's daughter, a slew of princes, well-connected socialites, and aristocrats are competing in 2024. With Princess Märtha Louise, Hugh Grosvenor's fiancée, and the granddaughter of the last Shah of Iran all lined up for a bumper year for high-society nuptials, it looks like the next 12 months are going to be a big one for high-society nuptials. Prince Abdul Mateen of Brunei, the son of Sultan Hassanal Bolkiah of Brunei, will wed his partner Anisha Isa Kalebic in a lavish 10-day celebration in the New Year. Edoardo Mapelli Mozzi, Princess Beatrice's husband, also announced his marriage to Chelsea in September. The couple may have been scheduled for a 2024 wedding. Here are the weddings worth swooning over this year, from bona fide to aristocratic socialites.

He was the handsome Army officer who captured Princess Diana's heart before beginning to work as a £4,000 gardener in a flat he shared with his mother. However, in the days after the final series of The Crown was published, the man branded 'The Cad' was seen returning from Ireland with his family, showing that his personal circumstances had changed. The group, which included a Diana-esque Italian countess (inset) and a film director, had been shooting in the west of Ireland, and had been seen discussing the Netflix show, its historical accuracy, and its portrayal of the Royal Family in the bar at Shannon Airport.

Despite the author's apprehensions last year, Omid Scobie (left) has maintained that his tense book Endgame (inset) was 'written at lightning speed.' He also said he had to deal with 'insane translation times.' Scobie has been chastised for the Dutch translation of his latest book Endgame, which named King Charles and the Princess of Wales (pictured right with Queen Camilla and Prince William) as senior royals who raised questions about Prince Archie's skin tones. It has been argued that his UK book agent did not translate Endgame's draft book naming the two 'royal racists' into Dutch. However, a final proof of the 400-page tome was later sent, but it is likely that the translator had been working from a previous draft. The King is likely to consult Prince William this week to discuss the book's racial outrage after Buckingham Palace said it is 'considering all alternatives' when it comes to a response.

RICHARD EDEN: When the Duke of Westminster made the 'incredibly sad' decision to exclude the Duke and Duchess of Sussex from his wedding next summer, he was aware of the royal controversy that complicated his sister's wedding in the same location. The Daily Mail reveals that Duke Hugh Grosvenor was'very aware' of the controversies surrounding Lady Tamara Grosvenor and Edward van Cutsem's wedding in 2004 and did not want anything similar at his own.

EPHRAIM HARDCASTLE HARDCASTLE (Reuters) HARDCASTLE Nicholas Witchell: Nicholas Witchell will be keeping his fingers crossed that King Charles' upcoming instalment of The Crown does not feature him as the "awful" guy. The as yet unveiled segment features skiing scenes from Charles' 2005 Klosters ski trip with William and Harry, when Witchell inquired about the then Prince of Wales' forthcoming nuptials to Camilla Parker Bowles. He said, 'Bloody people,' who is unaware that a microphone could pick up his screams to his sons.' I can't abide this guy. He is so bad, he really is.'

Over a third (35 percent) of UK men would take their partner's last name after marriage, according to experts, who have dubbed it a "growing trend." It comes as nearly half of five brides (16 percent) say they do not want to change their names when tying the knot. Experts have also described couples as 'increasingly popular', with both couples taking on double-barrell surnames after they get hitched. According to recent studies by Guides For Brides, whether or not to change your surname after marriage is on the rise. Women are gradually choosing to stick with their own family name (16 percent) rather than going the more traditional route of changing to their new spouse's name (stock photo).

The Emmy award-winning Netflix series is expected to bow after six seasons of royal drama. As Queen Elizabeth navigates a turbulent time for the House of Windsor, the last season is expected to premiere on Thursday, winding down the clock from the late ninties and early noughties. The final instalment is expected to be the show's most emotional yet, as the first four episodes depict Princess Diana's tragic death - an event that shakes not only the country but also the world at its core. Season six will be divided into two parts, with the second section focusing on Camilla Parker Bowles' marriage with King Charles III, as well as Prince William and Kate Middleton's early romance.

Peter Morgan, who spoke in California in advance of Netflix's sixth and final series of the show, said the costumes and protocol had seemed strange and alien. "I had to go to the Palace for a reason, but I didn't know anything about it," Morgan, whose father, a German Jew who fled the Nazis for the United Kingdom, said. 'It seems even madder than what we do! There were grown men with spurs, and everybody was dressed in a comedic costume and bowing.

In a very different way to how he has commemorated his big day in the past, the King would celebrate his 75th birthday by visiting a surplus food distribution center. The King may also hold a small family dinner at Clarence House, but the deliberately low-key style of his schedule reveals how much his life has changed from flashy young Prince to modern king. And his centuries remind how much Britain has changed in his lifetime as well.
