He should have been allowed to marry Camilla 30 years ago. Yes, I know that he committed adultery....blah blah blah and I know that many on this board will speak harshly of him....but let's not forget that Diana also committed adultery during their marriage and she was also the mistress of a married man herself - so if anyone wants to demonise Charles and Camilla, then equally they should demonise Di! _______________________ << Everyday is a gift, which is why we call today "the present" >>

FireGoddess Ideal Rock Total Posts: 12,145 Last Post: 3/23/2009 Member Since: 1/25/2005	I read this online: The platinum ring, a Royal Family heirloom believed to have once belonged to the late Queen Elizabeth the Queen Mother, features a central square diamond with three small rectangular shaped diamonds, or baguettes, down each shoulder. Paul Greer, manager of Bentley and Skinner, the Bond Street jewellers to the Royals, said if it did indeed date from the 1920s then it would have been at the forefront of fashion. Its a very popular style at the moment, very desirable, he said. Platinum only began being used in jewellery in about 1910, so if this is a heirloom dating from the 1920s, it would have a very cutting edge design, Mr Greer said. Didn't say anthing about size of stones, etc...

Mara Ideal Rock Total Posts: 27,893 Last Post: 11/20/2009 Member Since: 10/30/2002	I like WindowShoppers' better! In terms of the whole Charles/Camilla thing...personally I think it's ridiculous he couldn't marry her way back when...BUT because he couldn't marry the woman he loved...he should not have turned around and married Diana. He could have stopped alot of drama and heartache....if he was not over Camilla (which obviously he wasn't since he pined away for her, cheated with her, and now is marrying her)...he never should have gotten married to anyone else and brought them into the whole triangle. For me it isn't really about the adultery thing since eveyrone was getting involved back and forth, but rather about stopping the whole drama before it even started. Much more damage than just adultery seems like it has been done over the years. ________________________________ "Insanity: doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results." -Albert Einstein

Sparkster Ideal Rock Total Posts: 582 Last Post: 4/11/2008 Member Since: 6/1/2004	It's a beautiful ring but not my cuppa tea. I think is suits Camilla perfectly though. I think it's too old fashioned for a young woman to wear but suits a 'matronly' woman instead. Just as I think men and women should dress their age (ie no muttons dressed as lamb please), I think it should also apply to jewellery. _______________________ << Everyday is a gift, which is why we call today "the present" >>

Much more damage than just adultery seems like it has been done over the years. You're right - he shouldn't have married Diana or any other woman when his heart belonged to Camilla. Both Princess Margaret and Prince Charles were not given permission to marry their true loves - and that's pathetic! So instead, they settled for someone they loved less and look at the mess this has caused. I just hope that his children are allowed to follow their hearts. _______________________ << Everyday is a gift, which is why we call today "the present" >>

Charles and Diana was not out of Charles choosing to marry her... it was arranged for him to marry her... (and I'd still rather have the system we do... than have some slimy president whoes brownnosed and backstabbed his way to the top... at least here hes still not supreme ruler... he still has to offically deffer to her.

I know Diana had to be coached on alot of things before her marriage and I think someone needs to get ahold of Ms. Parker Bowles. I'm sorry, but I've seen drag queens that are more feminine than her. She walks like a linebacker in a pair of Manolo Blaniks. And her hair. She's had the same style for ages. I know she's tried to change her image by dressing in more designer duds but there is some things clothes don't cover!!!She doesn't even look right in them.I just heard on CNN that she was pelted by bread in the grocery store in England. I'm sorry, but that just cracks me up.

Secondly, I've seen film of Camilla from years ago and she walked and looked the same then as she does now. My point is not so much Camilla bashing but pointing out how much Diana had to go through and how much scrutiny she was under for her every movement, everything she wore, everything she said or did and Camilla needs to clean up her act. NOBODY wants to see a Princess clomping around, hunched over, in high heels with clothed HANGING on her like they were on a clothes hanger. Also, she still had the same bitter, unsmiling horse face when she was younger that she still has today.That's my opinion, this is not England, and I can say or feel whatever I wish about her.

Remember Royalty is for life, not just for a political term. Lord Summerisle, There are actually academics who have theories that support this gut reaction of yours. That is to say, the ideal system is one where you have a figurehead (like the queen), and then also a democratic government. That way the people's sense of identity associated with the leadership can stay intact even when there is political turmoil or scandal. Interesting that your reaction falls within this view.

Both rings are beautiful but I bet yours sparkles more and has a better cut. I kinda admire Camilla for resisting the temptation to have a little work done. Especially after looking at THIS website where you can see what some celebrities ended up with (Janine Turner -what were you thinking?) http://www.awfulplasticsurgery.com/ I was thinking about having a little plastic surgery myself one day - now not so much. As for Charles and Camilla. I congratulate them. 30 years is a long time to be in love but kept apart by circumstances. Even though she might not be every man's cup of tea she obviously is the one for him - so good luck to them.

Remember Royalty is for life, not just for a political term. Nice. Yeah -- like Windowshopper said, what's this babbling about? It gets SO old hearing clueless wanna-be political theorists making wide and WILD generalizations like the one here. There are a lot of Americans on this site who haven't dedicated their lives to bashing our president, and who actually ARE proud to be American -- as horrifying as that may be to the rest of the world. Everyone knows that the Royal family is pomp and cirumstance at this juncture in time. Do you even realize how hilariously ridiculous the whole thing seems to the rest of the world? No one outside of Britain takes it seriously -- so you comparing it to the president of the United States, who actually has a JOB to do -- well that's like apples & oranges, isn't it? I mean even if you hate him -- he STILL has a very difficult job to do, which entails more than choosing the proper riding pants for his polo match -- or remembering to tell his son that wearing a swastika to a party is MAYBE a bad idea. As for Camilla and Charles -- I agree that they seem to have been very close for so many years, and I don't doubt that their love is far deeper than anything Charles and Diana could have ever had. The media made Diana its darling so we always heard about the pain she suffered -- and I have no doubt that she did suffer greatly.....but I guess in hindsight, and with information that has been released in the last few years, it's clear that Charles suffered as well. Who knows. I think they're all crazy -- I mean I don't think you can live that life and NOT be negatively affected. I'm confused here though -- everyone is saying that Charles should not have married Diana, but wasn't Camilla already married at that time? My understanding is that Charles left for military duty in the 70's, and when he returned, Camilla had married someone else. Or am I mistaken?
