I rarely think of her at all, and even less often -- let us say never -- do I
have occasion to mention her. None of the people I talk to ever mention her
either. I suppose if I had to I would say "Camilla" or "that woman".

I've never understood the animosity over Camilla. We don't get much
coverage on that subject here, but I do understand that Elizabeth II
would be a tough act to follow.

I think that it has to do with Charles having an affair with Camilla
while they both were married - and not to each other. The sympathy was
with Diana.

Enh, Diana eventually admitted she was the first to cheat.

I find that hard to comprehend. I don't normally follow gossip about
Royals, however the facts are clear: Charles had a relationship with
Camilla before, during, and after his marriage to Diana. So, what Diana
is admitting to is inconceivable. She was a very young and innocent
girl when she got married. She may have thought she 'cheated' first',
but she would have been unaware of a lot of things going on around her.

She wasn't a
saint. All three of them were people, normal human beings with motives
and flaws.

I thought it *was* conceiveable - or at least there was a high risk of conception.

Only to innocents, like Diana perhaps.

It's hard to believe that she had never heard of what is broadly
expected in the way of marital tolerance from a Queen Consort of the
United Kingdom.

She must have been aware of the "habits" of Charles'
great-great-grandfather Edward (VII) and his great uncle David (Edward
VIII).
