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.

Someone asked was it possible for a Roman Catholic to take the British throne.

Say, can Jews, Hindus or Muslims marry into the British Royal Family or are Catholics just excluded?

OK, Thanks.

In my posted #177 I mentioned 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. My understanding is that to be King marring a divorced women is taboo.

Is this True or False?

Personally, I think he should have married her "way back when" when he first fell in love with her, IIRC, they hung around together in their late teens or early 20's.

Charles seems to be a ditherer, he probably couldn't decide to tie the knot when they were first in love.

Then he went off to his military service, and that's when Camilla married APB.

So I suppose she didn't think he was coming back to her.

With respect, Camilla looks like she attended the proverbial shovel fight...without a shovel. Just damn!

He's not so great either. They both look like they got beat with ugly sticks.

Imagine all the crap he would have saved the world if he had just married Camilla the first time...

Yes. Chances are that Dianna might have married someone else, been happy and still be alive today. Had to be rough knowing her husband was cheating on her with that horse.

They should both be sent to war zones all over the world. Fighting would stop in seconds.

He married Diana to produce a suitable heir and a spare.

Used her like a brood mare.

we know very little about Camilla

We know she's an adultress who lacked the decency (and consideration for her country) to sabotage the marriage of her future king.

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.

Thank you. :)

Top picture is Amanda Tapping ... She's an actress, and currently portrays the character "Samantha Carter" on the television show "Stargate SG-1". She is in costume for that role.

I think she's quite beautiful ... I also find the resemblance between her and the late Princess to be striking. YMMV.

Princess Diana had many lovers.

Not before she got married, she didn't. Did she have those 'many lovers' prior to giving birth to Prince William? DOUBT IT!

Meanwhile her husband continued his adultery with Camilla.

Hard to say how much her worthless husband contributed to her mental state, but I think 'tons'.

She actually threw herself down the stairs when she was pregnant to get Charles' attention and starved herself.

Here we can agree. It's a pretty sad thing to feel you have to harm yourself to get your alledged HINO to pay attention to you.

Kind of reminds me of that Michael Schiavo that's been shacked up with some other women and been trying to kill his wife off for years.
