Shows how tacky Princess Diana really was.

Agreed. She was sort of pre-Paris Hilton.

IMHO he married her b/c she was young, relatively pretty,not overly educated, gigglily, and (supposedly)virginal.

Whereas Camilla is/was older (closer to his own age), handsome-in-a-1930's-British-sort-of-way, sensible, and, I believe, a divorcee (widow? Either way, she was an unsealed package, shall we say?).

Camilla was neither a divorcee nor a widow. She had a husband who she was still living with while having the affair with Charles. The husband got special favours from the Royal Family for looking the other way. He got to organize one of the Queen Mother's birthday celebrations, for instance. And he received the title "Silver Stick-in-Waiting" for his efforts. It's a real title. That's the way it's done between the aristocracy and royalty throughout history. Rather smarmy if you ask me.
