The smooth ascension of Queen Camilla of the United Kingdom also made her feel the supreme glory, and Camilla's family reached a high point of the family in her era. But many media still hold on to her identity as a "prom girl" and don't let go, in fact, Camila doesn't think it's a bad thing for this name. Are you wondering, this humiliating name, does Camilla, as a queen, really not mind?
Before this question, we need to understand what a "prom girl" is?
In our inherent thinking, the prom girl is the kind of person who is inferior to the ninth class, and she is fundamentally unfaced. Because in our environment, it is true that this term is not a good word. But in the UK, this is not a pejorative term, nor does it mean anything unpopular. It is defined as a person who has a knighthood, but the knighthood does not come from the right way.
Speaking of this, you may understand a little, in fact, Camila is not hung out because she is in and out of a certain place, which has nothing to do with the number of places in and out.
However, since it is from the wrong way, it will definitely be ridiculed by many people, but then again, this is not Camilla's fault, after all, when she was not born, this title was already hung on her.
This is about Camilla's father.
The Camilla family is actually not bad, her father is an excellent royal officer with unparalleled high status. The reason why he has such a high status is not only because he himself is powerful enough, but more importantly, Camilla's grandfather is also a powerful figure - during World War II, the British rank of major general officer.
In this way, this is powerful, this family is not ordinary people. Camilla is a proper famous goalkeeper, no wonder Camilla dared to arrogantly insert the political marriage between the British crown prince and the daughter of the Earl of Spencer, it turns out that the family is not a fuel-saving lamp.
But even that doesn't mean Camilla can have a knighthood. Although her father and grandfather of the major general held high official positions, they were only that. Because they do not belong to the British aristocracy after all, no matter how high the position is, they will not have a knighthood, after all, the knighthood is the patent of the nobility. Don't shout anything: Wang Hou Xiang, Ning has a feeling? For the British aristocracy, blood is still a very important part.
But Camilla's father, Parker Bowles, changed all that, that is, he married Camilla's mother, Kepel, because her mother was a woman with a title, so Camilla also had her own title and became a member of the British aristocracy.
It stands to reason that this is a good thing, but it is this title that gives Camilla the hat of "prom girl", mainly because of the lord owned by her mother Kepel, but the origin of this title is not recognized by the royal family, and it is necessary to involve another thing here, that is, how did Kepel's title come about? Why is it not the right way to go.
This starts with Camilla's maternal great-grandmother, a woman who was once the lover of King Edward VII of England.
Edward VII is a famous man, his own son of Queen Victoria, held by the queen in the palm of his hand, that is really pampered. After Edward VII came to the throne, his political level was also very average, but he did achieve a lot in another aspect, which is called amorous in today's terms. It is because of this king who made this mediocre performance leave his mark on the history of England.
It's actually nothing to say that the affair is actually nothing, but Edward VII's affair is different from others, how to say? In other words, what is that Internet phrase called? - "Mender syndrome"
You are a very understanding friend can check it yourself, I will not go into too much detail.
The so-called, now blind dates pay attention to like-mindedness, as the saying goes: Wang Ba looks at mung beans - right eyes. This is the case with Edward VII and Alice (Camilla's great-grandmother). Because Alice also had the same interests as Edward VII, that is: she was very interested in the opposite sex of the nobility.
In this way, the two people came together, really called "like-minded" (one is a king who likes to hunt for beauty, the other is a down-and-out noble woman), and their ideas are all a perfect fit. Alice's beauty and moving made Edward VII fascinated, and Edward's power also made Alice yearn for it.
In this way, Edward and Alice came together, if it was just because of desire at the beginning, then the next ten years of getting along was not just desire, each other's emotions have slowly been planted in the heart.
Edward VII looked at Alice's reluctance when he was about to die, but in order for Alice to live better, he managed to send her out of the palace. However, Edward VII understood that when he died, he would not forgive her in the future, so he used his power to give Alice a knighthood, which was the only way he could think of to save Alice.
Since then, Alice has used the title of the royal family, although it is not high, but it can be regarded as entering the ranks of the nobility, which is the origin of the Camilla family title.
Obtaining a knighthood in this way was naturally not recognized by the nobles at that time, so everyone said that Camilla was a "ball girl", but Camilla did not seem to mind this very much, although she was always despised by the so-called nobles, but in Camilla's eyes, it was also a matter of pride. Just as Camilla is now queen and her family is happy for her, aren't even her ex-husband and children excited to attend the ceremony?
But anyway, Camilla is also working hard for the royal family now, and the question of the origin of this title is not something she can control, because there was no her at that time.
