Under the applause, the entry of a new queen to Buckingham Palace (London, United Kingdom). Alongside Charles III, Camilla Parker-Bowles, outcast turned queen consort, found her place in the monarchy and the hearts of the British. “I think she is in her role. She behaves extremely well”, says a woman. Charles and Camilla met in 1970, during a polo match. Love at first sight is immediate, but it is with Diana that Charles will marry, 11 years later.
Camilla was there, as she always was with Charles. She then becomes the prince’s mistress. Held responsible for her divorce, she becomes the most hated woman in the country.
