About this listen
For many years, Camilla was portrayed in a poor light, blamed by the public for the break-up of the marriage between Prince Charles and Lady Diana. Initially, the Queen refused to see or speak to her, but, after the death of Prince Philip, the Duchess became one of the Queen's closest companions. Her confidence in Camilla and the transformation she saw in Prince Charles since their wedding resulted in her choosing the first day of her Platinum Jubilee year to tell the world that she wanted Camilla to be Queen Consort not the demeaning Princess Consort suggested in 2005
Angela Levin uncovers Camilla’s rocky journey to be accepted by the royal family and how she coped with the brutal portrayal of her in Netflix's The Crown. The public have witnessed her tremendous contribution to help those in need, especially during Covid. Levin has talked to many of the Duchess’s long-term friends, her staff and executives from the numerous charities of which Camilla is patron. She reveals why Camilla concentrates on previously taboo subjects, such as domestic violence and rape. Most of all, Levin tells the story of how Camilla has changed from a fun-loving young woman to one of the senior royals’ hardest workers. She has retained her mischievous sense of humour, becoming a role model for older women and an inspiration for younger ones.
Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall is both an extraordinary love story and a fascinating portrait of an increasingly confident Queen Consort. It is an essential read for anyone wanting a greater insight into the royal family.

Also impressed that the last chapter altered slightly to incorporate the passing of Her Majesty the Queen (especially as book was published around the time of her passing).
Fantastic listen

I've found this book very interested describing her journey. She comes across, both from this book and seeing her on TV as very genuine, with no airs of superiority or stuffiness.
We are most fortunate to have her, the King and the other working members of the Royal Family.

I feel sorry for them right now. What with The Crown, Andrew, and the Harkles. It can’t be easy trying to walk in our late Queens shoes, under the worlds spotlight, almost wanting you to put a foot wrong.
Camilla will make a great Queen alongside our new King.
A real love story
