There’s only so much you can take, right? Camilla Parker Bowles admits she just had to find a way to live with the negative press coverage she suffered from for much of her adult life. Camilla made the rare remarks about her past and the scrutiny she received as she spoke to the magazine, British Vogue, ahead of her 75th birthday next month. Here’s what you need to know.
Camilla said the media attention is “not easy” and added: “I was scrutinized for such a long time that you just have to find a way to live with it. Nobody likes to be looked at all the time and, you know, criticized. But I think in the end, I sort of rise above it and get on with it.”
Camilla Parker Bowles Admits That All The Bad Press She Got Took A Toll On Her Mental Health
Thankfully, these days Camilla enjoys much more positive media coverage these days and she is known to get on with the photographers and journalists who attend her engagements, both solo and with Prince Charles. That said, she has come a long way since the 1990s when she was blamed, many say unfairly, for the breakdown of the marriage between Prince Charles and Princess Diana.
Camilla Parker Bowles, as she was then known, was famously referred to by Princess Diana when she spoke about there being “three of us in this marriage” in her 1996 Panorama interview.
Back in 2021, there was some speculation that there were members of the royal family that didn’t want Camilla to become Queen. According to Britain’s Express.co.uk, there is someone behind the scenes at Buckingham Palace who doesn’t think Camilla is fit to be Queen. Royal author and expert Penny Junor suggested that there is some reservation behind making Camilla Queen even though her husband Prince Charles stands to be the next King of England. Instead of being called a Queen, some people think that Camilla should be a Princess Consort instead.
