It was one of the most explosive affairs ever to take place in the British royal family: the relationship between Camilla Parker-Bowles (75) and King Charles (74) - both married at the time of the relationship.
Accordingly, there was great excitement in the international media landscape when the relationship between the then-still British heir to the throne and the wife of the Military man Andrew Parker-Bowles (83) became public. In an interview with 'The Mail on Sunday', the current Queen explained how terrible she felt at that time.
Queen Camilla: "I couldn’t have survived it without my family"
Especially the siege of the press was a nightmare after the affair of Camilla Parker-Bowles and Prince Charles, who was then still married to Princess Diana (†36), became known: "I couldn’t really go anywhere. But the children came and went as normal – they just got on with it – and so did great friends. It was horrid. It was a deeply unpleasant time and I wouldn’t want to put my worst enemy through it," revealed the 75-year-old to 'The Mail on Sunday'.
