Princess Margaret could have married Peter Townsend, but she would have had to give up her royal status and her rights (such as they were) to the throne.

To put the record straight, Henry VIII did not marry a divorcee. He was himself divorced. All his wives were single or widowed. He claimed that his first marriage should be annulled because she had been married to his deceased brother (another long time thorn).

Also, isn't Camilla a Catholic? - that would put the kibosh entirely on her becoming Queen, or him becoming King. He could have married her first time round, if he had only made up his mind, but he shilly-shallied because she had "a past". What has she got now? This "romance" has broken two marriages, and affected four children. Forgive me if I don't say "Aaaah". I don't think he should ever be King, not simply because of Camilla, but because he has shown himself singularly unfit for the job, in many ways.
