Queen Camilla – Travels To Ireland
Queen Camilla traveled to Ireland without her husband this week, and while she was chatting with her constituents she fielded questions about the King’s cancer and health. But, Camilla Parker-Bowles lack of concern ruffled some feathers.
Per People Magazine, “On Thursday, the Queen, 76, stepped out in Belfast to check out some of the city’s artisan and family-run food shops, where she briefly spoke about her husband’s health at the Arcadia Delicatessen. “He’s doing very well. He was very disappointed he couldn’t come,”
Queen Camilla said after shop assistant Brenda Robb gave her a get-well card for the King, 75, and shared well-wishes.”
King Charles’ Wife Is Keeping Him In Line
According to reports, someone at the bakery made a joke about men not being the best patients when they are sick. Camilla laughed and joked about King Charles’ diagnosis and went on to say she “keeps him in line.”
Cancer is scary, and everyone deals with it differently and has their own coping mechanisms. But, joking with the public about her husband’s serious diagnosis is probably not the best way to handle it. Especially when the patient in question is the King of England.
Camilla Parker Bowles has always had a tough time connecting with the people. Do you think that she was wrong to laugh at the jokes about King Charles?

I think Camilla is a pig and is the worst thing to happen to the Royal Family. I grimace each time I hear the title “Queen Camilla”. How dare she even accept that title. She is awful. In every way.
