Re: Camilla - Charles

And the latest news is that they are both in therapy because of the stress of the wedding preparations. Aw - bless!

I find it hilarious that the Sunday Express quotes a palace source regarding Princess Michael's "tacky" book-signing deal at Windsor Guildhall. If this farcical wedding isn't "tacky", then what is?

So we have the head of the C of E , successor (though very indirectly) to Henry VIII who set the institution up so that he could grant himself the divorce he required, unable to marry within the C of E because it has changed its policy since Tudor times. He can't marry in Windsor Castle because, if he does, so can everyone else for at least the next 3 years. He wishes, if and when he succedes his mother, to be not Defender of the Faith but Defender of Faiths because he doesn't want to offend anyone (and he knows on which side his bread is buttered) and he's marrying the woman he has "kept" for the last 30 years because he couldn't be bothered to marry her when it was all legal and, lucky for him, he was able to have his cake and eat it too, where Mrs P-B was concerned, when it was necessary for him to produce the "heir and a spare".

Talk about the Duke of Windsor and Wallis Simpson? A prim and proper affair compared to this sordid little lot.
