“Tell me, Camilla, does this pinky ring make me look silly?”
That ‘pinky ring’ is the Signet of the Prince of Wales. It is worn as symbol of his commitment to the Principality of Wales as their Prince and to the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland as Heir Apparent to the throne.
(Declaring my bias - I am a friend of the Prince of Wales, having gone to school with him - and he’s a man worthy of far more respect that many people seem to imagine. The way he is portrayed in the media is more a caricature, than accurate. He is a man utterly dedicated to the welfare of his country and who has devoted his life to its service. Yes, he has some odd ideas at time - but imagine what it’s like to be constitutionally prevented from speaking your own mind on so many issues that the only ones you wind up being allowed to speak on are fringe ones).
