Why did Charles ever choose Camilla over Diana?

I'm not even going to reply to someone who could possibly, even jokingly, support Mommy Angel.

Why don't you two create your own topic?

That would be a real winner!!!

winkwink

If you read over the posts from beginning to end on this thread you will see that I had concern over the way Diana was treated in her lifetime. As far as compassion from other posters, I saw very very little of that. Some replies like "why do you care, you don't live in England'. Now, there's a good method of debating/arguing, don't you think? It is a prerequisite to live in a country before one comments upon it?

But Charles is a wimpy fellow and had to follow Mom's wishes. He managed to get a divorce when he wanted one. After the heirs were produced of course.

Camilla and Charles deserve each other. They are both insufferable, chinless snobs, & can't relate to the common people. Camilla doesn't like to even touch people in a crowd, like Diana did. Thank goodness Harry and William are like their mom.

When a person is famous, they live in a fishbowl. I'm sure my opinions and those of anyone else really do not matter to such people.

I hear Charles may have another mistress already. Guys who cheat on their wives usually cheat on their mistresses, when/if they marry. Ole Camille may be getting a taste of her own medicine.

These are not facts. They are your opinion. Why do you really care what happens in England.

Have you lived there?

Whether it is/was fair for royals, celebrities, etc to live in a fishbowl is a moot point. They do, and they know that when they accept the job. Goes with the territory/job description. Has nothing to do with the way Charles treated Diana. She was used by him (and the Royals) and there are a few people on this thread that agree with that, at least.

This thread began when I saw Harry on TV and noticed how much he was like his mom; he's caring and affectionate, loves people, as does William. Harry was holding a little African baby who was dying of AIDS. I somehow cannot see Camilla doing that. I was thinking Diana would be proud of her boys. She did a good job of being a mom even though she was young and had to contend with the Queen.......

Now. What on earth have I said that could possibly be misconstred as rude here? Like I said, it goes both ways and I certainly received many posts I considered rude. The thinking seems to be 'englishmajor is new here. how dare she be rude so soon, or actually have opinions'. But it's ok if you so called old timers just jump in and mouth off? Strange forum protocol.

If none of you care about the life and times of Charles/Diana/Camilla, then don't read this thread. Maybe it will die a natural death, who cares?

Si t'es pas content va tu caresser avec une poignier de bracquettes. (Get your experts to translate).

Interesting watching Intrepid's defence team suddenly appearing on this thread.

englishmajor, welcome to A2K.

You seem to be a person of strong convictions and passions. I admire those attributes in a person. You also seem to think it is acceptable to ask a question of opinion on a forum and then berate those whose opinions differ from yours. If you didn't want to hear opinions that differed from your own, why did you ask the question?

Many of us on these forums have strong convictions and passions. It's what make the discussions interesting. There have been many cases when a particular individual holds strong views quite the opposite of my own but when they need my support on an issue of health or relationship they get it without question.

Not replying to one poster because they support another poster whose views disagree with yours shows a definite lack of maturity and compassion. We can disagree with each other on many levels and maintain fair dialogue while doing so. Discussion can only continue when it is done with dignity and respect.
