Royal Family News: 5 Quotes That Say Camilla Parker-Bowles’ Ready To Be Queen

British Royal family news reveals while Camilla Parker-Bowles, Duchess of Cornwall has certainly seen the good, the bad, and the downright ugly throughout her years at Buckingham Palace and beyond, there’s no denying that Camilla Parker Bowles has come a long way ever since she was introduced to the world as the “third person” in Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage.

Even though history had stacked the odds against Prince Charles and Camilla Parker-Bowles, these days they are not only the least controversial couple in the royal family, but they also seem to be the happiest one, too. What’s more, a lot of people believe that Camilla Parker Bowles truly is ready to be the next Queen Consort of England. Here are five of her previous quotes that prove Camilla is ready for the next step in her royal life.

#1 Camilla Parker-Bowles Has Managed To Put The Past Behind Her

When news broke that Prince Charles was allegedly having an affair with Camilla during his marriage to Princess Diana, Camilla’s world flipped upside down. With that said though, she didn’t falter and she didn’t let it get in the way of her family life. “For about a year, when we lived at Middlewick, I couldn’t really go anywhere. But the children came and went as normal — they just got on with it — and so did great friends,” Camilla said in an interview with the Mail on Sunday. “It was horrid. It was a deeply unpleasant time and I wouldn’t want to put my worst enemy through it. I couldn’t have survived it without my family.”

#2 Camilla Parker-Bowles Is A Survivor

Camilla explained in an interview with The Mail on Sunday, “You also have to laugh at yourself because if you can’t, you may as well give up. I sometimes think to myself, ‘Who is this woman? It can’t possibly be me.’ And that’s really how you survive. Also, having so many friends who, if I ever even vaguely look like getting uppity, which touch wood I never have, they would just say, ‘Look, come on, pull yourself together! Don’t be so bloody grand!'”

#3 There Is Nothing But True Love Between Camilla Parker-Bowles And Prince Charles

Camilla once said, “I will tell you that he is the most difficult person in the world to buy a present for. He is a man! They are hopeless!… He likes to make a list of things that he wants so you get it exactly right. I find this time of year impossible as it’s his birthday and then it’s Christmas, so you have got two in a row. Everybody else is easy but he is not.”

#4 Camilla Parker-Bowles’ Got The Best Sense Of Humor In The Royal Family

According to the Daily Telegraph, when Sharon Osbourne told Camilla, “I think you are f***ing great” at the Queen’s Golden Jubilee Concert at Buckingham Palace in 2002, Camilla responded with, “Oh, it’s quite all right, we curse a lot around here.”

#5 Camilla Parker-Bowles Is Always Willing To Learn And Grow Through Her Travels And Engagements

The Duchess said in 2007, “What I have learned from my travels is that by listening at least as much as we speak, and by trying to understand before we act, we perhaps stand a better chance of coming up with the right answers.”
