Prince Charles to Marry Camilla Parker Bowles
Thursday, February 10, 2005
LONDON — Prince Charles announced Thursday that he will marry his lover Camilla Parker Bowles after more than 30 years of an on-again, off-again romance that was blamed for destroying the prince's marriage to Princess Diana.
The Prince of Wales and Parker Bowles will marry on Friday, April 8, at Windsor Castle, said Clarence House (search), Charles' residence and office.
They will be married in a largely private civil ceremony at the palace, not in a Church of England (search) service.
The April wedding which will not have the pomp and ceremony of the fairy-tale-like 1981 wedding of Diana and Charles, which was broadcast live on television worldwide.
"There will subsequently be a service of prayer and dedication in St. George's Chapel at which the Archbishop of Canterbury will preside," said Clarence House.
The decision on the type of service reflects the fact that both are divorcés, and that Parker Bowles' former husband is still living.

She was born in 1947.
She's a bit too old for children. (without a lot of medical intervention)
Good!
Allright you guys. You are posting these pics of the blond Norwegian Princess with her boobs hanging out. Here are two extraordinarily lovely ladies who are both intelligent, classy and bruntte, even without boobs hanging out! Click on the second picture and tell me they aren't just as lovely as Priness Medeleine. Even the (eek!) OLDER one.

She does fill out that tiara well, doesn't she?
Oh, my goodness!
I guess there is some advantage to those long nights in the Swedish winters.

>Yeah, that's kind of what the "love is truly blind" saying is all about isn't it??
I think the "love is blind" is because said in the first throes of love we tend to endow our beloved with all sorts of good qualities which few can live up to. LOL!!
>I thought Diana was a gorgeous creature but not a person I liked. She ws exhibitionistic, immature, self centered and immensely determined to destroy that family<
With all due respect, cajun, I couldn't disagree with you more. Diana was a teenager when she married Charles, and I think quite smitten with him. At first she was unsure of herself. To Charles (and perhaps even the Queen) she was but a brood mare for the throne. Her marriage was a tragedy from the very beginning. However, she eventually became a charming and poised philanthropist in spite of it. Anything she may have done behind the scenes was her desperate way of coping with a very unhappy situation all around. IMHO she meant no harm to the royal family, and was a loving mother to her sons.

LOL.
My husband says "cute" makes up for a good 15 points on the IQ test.
I agree. I figured these people got the nickname "the horsey set" from their looks...
Yeah, well, after Henry VIII no royal ever would consider divorce either....the times they are a changin'!!
Since they are accepting divorce and the married/divorced mistress as consort, it is time to consider accepting abdication as well.
Charles should finally marry the woman he has always loved. But, because they both are adulterers, neither should hold the title, "Royal Highness". They have hurt so many people, and thus are very "low" indeed. Charles should never ascend to the throne.
Diana was handed a very unfortunate hand, for a teenager to deal with. It is true that she knew about Charle's love for Camilla when she married him...but, she was very young and believed that he would change...
But, too bad. Happens to millions of women. At least she had the love of most of the world, two wonderful sons, as well as riches and beauty. It is sad that she did not have a good marriage. Not many do. She could have made the best of the good she did have. She could have really made a huge difference in the world.
It is a shame that instead she chose to inflict the same pain on other women, that Camilla inflicted on her. I ceased to feel any pity for the woman after it came out that she destroyed other homes, by having affairs with married men. She shamed herself and hurt her children.
The only way Charles can be KING is if Camilla's ex-husband dies before they get married. To be KING you can't marry any divorced women. Catholic woman are also out of the picture if Charles is to be KING.
Charles will never be KING.

I doubt it. If Camilla had been the first wife, she would probably have symbolized whatever Diana as the first wife symbolized that irritated him at the time. He would probably have treated her just the same as he did Diana and with someone else to boot. On the other hand, if he was "in love" with Camilla in the first place, why in the world didn't he marry HER before she and he both were married to someone else? I've read somewhere that Camilla actually suggested his marriage to someone else rather than her even when they were both available for some reason. Perhaps she just enjoyed watching him flail about and then stealing him from another woman. That said, shall we never mention them again? Perhaps they richly deserve each other.
As an outsider, I see them as adulterers. Oops! Mum's the word!
You are so wrong!
The Habsburg monarchy had a long relationship with the Roman Catholic Church.
As the political descendant of the Holy Roman Empire, the Habsburg monarchy had dual responsibilities for its subjects’ spiritual and temporal welfare.
In this context, the Austro-Hungarian monarch was head of both the State and Church; however, it must be noted that although the Habsburg emperors were Apostolic Majesties mandated to spread the Catholic faith and foster the Church’s welfare, they were also tolerant of non-Catholic faiths found in their empire.
