Camilla Parker-Bowles Was Not Interested In A Career Before Marrying Prince Charles

British Royal family news says that Camilla Parker Bowles has always been happy with her role in life. In fact, there’s a new report that says the Duchess of Cornwall didn’t have a career before marrying Prince Charles, simply because she wasn’t interested in having one. Here’s what you need to know.

Camilla Parker-Bowles Was Not Interested In Having A Career Before Marrying Prince Charles

According to the Daily Star, it wasn’t until Camilla married Charles back in 2005 that she had experienced a change in lifestyle. At least, that’s what royal author Angela Levin says in her upcoming book, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall: From Outcast to Future Queen Consort. She also says that Camilla is used to taking on all of the public appearances and royal engagements that other senior members of the royal family would rather not do.

Levin put it this way, “I think she has at the age of 57, when she married Prince Charles, it’s absolutely astonishing that she could change her life so completely. She didn’t have a career before. She wasn’t interested. She just liked to read, go to parties, and have fun. And she wasn’t brought up to think in any other way. But she has changed enormously for the better. And the more she’s done in the world of charities, the more she wants to do.”

Many royal fans and critics alike commented on the matter with, “If that was the lifestyle she wanted then more power to her. It makes her charity work now look performative since she didn’t have enough passion before marrying PC to be concerned about other people. Maybe she and K have more in common than meets the eye,” along with, “This sounds so Victorian. I’m sure this is still common amongst the wealthy but it is such a foreign concept to me. Raised to be brood mares and kept women and to be content with that lifestyle. How suffocating.”

Another critic wrote, “How do people like these spend their days and not get bored? I do know a few socialites who just seem to wander from parties to parties, from this vacation house to that other vacation house. Some do end up doing some type of charity work to keep busy! I sometimes wonder how a human being with a well functioning brain does not get bored out of the mind being so useless and with so little purpose! I will never get it to be honest.”
