If I were those two, I would be sweating making love on honeymoon night and hearing loud ghostly chuckles.... it would be Diana saying thank God she isn't there... :)

I hear she was quite surprised that she had done so, upon waking up the next day.

I thought that would be the popular desire of the masses anyway.

Thanks for posting Ivan...I don't know what it is with the fascination with the royals. Just plain great entertainment I tell myself after 200+ posts. (And you've provided me with some great history).

I was rather hoping Charles would stand aside, eventually.

If the statement that the monarch cannot be married outside the CoE is correct, this was his standing aside.

Am I the only one here who sees the fascination with monarchy as a celebration of human tyranny?

Nah -- the foibles of royalty have devolved into history repeating itself as farce rather than tragedy, as a wise man once put it.

You raise an interesting point. Last Cindy Adams wrote in her column in the New York Post that Camilla was battling cancer after being a heavy smoker for many years. Then nothing further was reported. I don't know what happened to that story.

"Adultery" is rolled into the "tacky" part. It's just low-life trashy behavior all around that belongs on Jerry Springer's show, not in palaces. Perhaps "trash" would be a better word?

Yep, but out here in the land of stolen governorships it's okay. They are also registered on-line with Macy's.
