Candace Cameron Bure Refuses to Back Down Following Backlash Over ‘Inappropriate’ Photos With Husband
Camilla Parker Bowles faced severe public backlash when her affair with Prince Charles was revealed. She hid from the public and endured mistreatment. Royal expert Angela Levin stated, “She was constantly called nasty names like ‘rottweiler,’ and it must have come as a huge shock that people were so vile about her.”
Charles and Camilla met in 1972 at a polo match and briefly dated before Charles left for the Royal Navy. Camilla married Andrew Parker Bowles in 1973, but her affair with Charles continued. Princess Diana initially got along with Camilla, but tensions arose.
In 1992, Charles and Diana separated, and their divorce followed in 1996. A scandal erupted when a private phone call between Charles and Camilla was leaked in 1989. Over the years, Camilla’s public image improved, and Queen Elizabeth expressed her wish for Camilla to be known as Queen Consort. Despite past challenges, Camilla is now a respected Royal Family member.
