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.

"Will she be Princess Consort to King Charles, or will he still be king?"

I heard on FOX & Friends this morning that Camilla will be called "Duchess of Cornwall" after the wedding. If Charles takes the throne, she will then be "Princess Consort;" never Queen. (Which is only right.)

Because as we all know, DIANA is Queen of Our Hearts. ;)

Princess Madeleine is a good, nice girl. No scandals yet. Her quality as a person has nothing to do with your tittie shot. Her sister, the heir to the throne is also a good girl and will make an excellent Queen. Their parents have done an excellent job.

Hey, at least he is marrying for love this time. Gotta give him credit. Good going, Charles.

Many people want Charles to forego his throne here. He is a conservative and his son is a liberal. Do you really think this is wise?

"Give Camilla a break. She's a lot older."

Thank you for this kind comment. I agree. People attack her because of the Diana propaganda, but really we know very little about Camilla. Give her a chance and don't make judgements based on someone's age. We women can't all be beauty queens till our dying day, and we do have other values besides the way we look.

And, pray tell, what do YOU look like? Are you 30 with a bald head and an ugly face? Beer belly? Obese? Bad teeth? Chicken legs and a pudge in the middle? Pock marks on your face?
Camilla is an older woman, and for an older woman, she is NOT unattractive, not at all. You simply are a shallow person, and judge women not on the content of their character or intelliegence. You are the sort who marries a young woman, has 3 kids and then throws momma off the train for a younger model. Shame on you, you shallow little terd.

Why not post a pic of Crown Princess Victoria? Not pretty enough? I saw a 2 hour documentary on this family, and Victoria is not beautiful, but she's a good, moral, compassionate person, doesn't get in trouble and even went through bootcamp to show solidarity with her people! Sorry to be snippy about the pic thing, but I get tired of women being judged solely on the way they look. I myself am getting older at 36, and I am still pretty, but not what I was in my 20's. I'd hate for people to judge me harshly when I am Camilla's age because I've lost my youth. You know, this pressure to be beautiful affects women pretty badly. We have no self-esteem unless we are pretty. Look at the way women react to getting older. Plastic surgery, wrinkle reducer, etc.. Teen girls have no self-esteem if they aren't beautiful. Gentlemen, these are your mothers, wives, aunts, sisters and daughters. Think about what you casually say in front of them regarding women's appearances. They do take it to heart.

I wouldn't judge you harshly on the way you look.

I'd judge you harshly on the fact that you seem to be a smarmy, self-righteous, whining harpy. Others may choose other reasons.

Any children from the marriage will be raised in the stables.

She's only a couple of years older than Prince William.

William ought to look into that.

"Romance wasn't to blame...Chuckie was..Chuckie cheated on his wife...and refused to stop...Chuckie destroyed his marriage and damaged his own family..."

Princess Diana had many lovers. Not to disrespect the dead, but the tabloids martyred her, because she was sort of pretty, and for no other reason. Diana would have been divorced by a commoner in a hot second because of her dysfunctional personality, but Charles stayed with her because of the boys. She actually threw herself down the stairs when she was pregnant to get Charles' attention and starved herself. Sorry, but in my book that is a silly, thoughtless, immature girl. She was buddies with Elton John and Michael Jackson and every other degenerate homosexual she met. Charles was a bit more mature. Diana knew he didn't love her (and in fact loved Camilla) on their wedding day, and that she was a means to produce sons.

Finally marrying the person he was adulterous with all through his first marriage. I guess the English will take one look at this and say "Well Done". Barf, no wonder the young son went out in a Nazi uniform. He knew the news and was making his own statement of rebellion regarding it IMO.

Didn't the Prince try to hire Robert Blake to run Dianna's car off the road to kill her?
