In 1997, the death of Princess Diana shocked the world. The death of this beautiful woman, known as the "princess of the people", stirred up public sentiment, causing the royal family to carefully distance herself from Camilla, who was seen as the culprit of the crown prince's marriage, and Camilla disappeared from public view for a while.
However, Camilla did not completely disappear from public view, but in 2001, she and Prince Charles kissed for the first time in public, marking the publicization of their relationship.
Soon after, Camilla was invited to royal events for the first time and gradually took on the role of Charles' companion.
On July 2, 2005, Charles and Camilla married at Windsor Castle, and Camilla officially became Charles's partner, but Camilla's marriage was not widely accepted by the public.
Charles's two marriages are undoubtedly one of the most interesting topics for the British royal family. Diana and Camilla, the two women, one is hailed as a representative of beauty, the other is labeled as short, unfeminine. Their existence undoubtedly added a lot of color to Charles's life.
Camilla's comparison to Diana has been the focus of media and public discussion, however, most of the comparisons between the two women have been against Camilla.
Camila is 14 years older than Diana and nearly two years older than Charles, and her appearance and temperament cannot be compared with Diana. However, Camila was able to ascend to the throne as queen, while Diana died tragically in a car accident.
Although Camilla's image is not as popular as Diana's, she is considered a wise, stable, mature woman. Compared to Diana, Camilla is more calm and composed in handling media and public attention.
Elizabeth once admired that Camilla never went outside to break the news with the media, even if she was wronged or misunderstood by others, she could face it calmly.
This stable and mature attitude has made some people have a good impression of Camilla, which has led many people to think that Princess Diana has a low brain IQ in love and does not have a big picture, unlike Camilla's intelligence and wisdom.
However, is such an assessment really fair? Camilla knows that Charles has family children, but she still maintains a relationship with him for a long time, is this behavior really commendable?
Have you ever thought that Camilla can be described as a red flag at home that does not fall, and the colorful flags outside are waving, such a life is not too easy for her, what grievances can she suffer? Of course, she won't make a big splash on the Internet, because she deserves a loss!
Although she will not complain in front of the media like Princess Dai that "the marriage of three people is very crowded", she has her own threats, and Camilla has not been smooth sailing after marrying Charles.
It is said that for a while Charles was very dissatisfied with Camilla's fascination with alcohol, they often quarreled, and even almost got into a fight, Camilla divorced and asked Charles to pay her compensation.
Camila threatened to reveal the royal family's secrets to the world if she was not compensated. The compensation she asked for was as high as 200 million, which was really a lion's mouth.
Their years together allowed her to learn many of Charles' secrets, which became her bargaining chip.
Some people say that Princess Diana has a low education, but her beauty and purity are incomparable to Camilla. The death of Princess Diana makes people's memories of her even more profound.
And Camilla, although she became Charles's partner, her image has never been comparable to Princess Diana.
She will live forever in the shadow of Princess Diana.
