While I don’t support divorce, it was obvious from the very beginning that Charles was never in love with her and carried a torch for Camilla...as it is claimed by Dianna that she overheard Charles on the evening prior to their marriage talking to Camilla on the phone, admitting his love for her alone. Camilla. Imagine living with that knowledge?
I can’t imagine the desperation that she felt, the betrayal, and feeling locked into a marriage that was loveless? Camilla, due to her husband’s “rank” was at many state events and I’m sure Charles took full advantage to talk to her as much as possible. and it was often rumored that he spent more time at Camilla’s side than with his wife at these events. It was also stated that she’d tried to get out of the engagement, but was admonished to stay and do her duty. She was a lot younger than Charles. I always felt that she was in a place between a rock and a hard place. No good option.
She wasn’t in love with him either. But such marriages were never about love, were they?
