Camilla’s Sex Appeal

I’m not sure who Julie Bindel is but a cracker of a piece from her today. As Mr. Free Market (and please, do read this piece, masterly) and Tim the Englishman have been pointing out for ages, there is a certain countryness, an earthiness to Camilla that contributes to her sex appeal. Ms. Bindel spots this:

Camilla, on the other
hand, is a woman to be reckoned with. On her first few dates with
Charles, Diana referred to him as "sir" as protocol dictates. When
Camilla first got chatting to him, she said "my great-grandmother and
your great-grandfather were lovers. How about it?" What a broad.

If
Camilla was a character in Coronation Street she would be Bet Lynch.
Diana was more like Emily Bishop, with her constant do-gooding, her
hangdog expression and reliance on men for protection. Camilla would be
pulling pints, flirting with customers and dancing on the piano.
Diana’s was an arranged marriage which she, and others, misread as a
love match. Camilla openly adores Charles, and if Tampongate is to
believed, enjoys a fair bit of how’s your father. She even crashed her
car once in her eagerness to get to him.

Good advice for any young swain there, there’s a great deal more to look for in a woman than how she photographs.

  1. Today’s Daily Mail (yes, I know) suggests that Camilla felt justified in chatting up Prince Charles because, although she was dating Andrew P B at the time, he was shagging Princess Anne.

    If I were Camilla, I’d post off an article to the Graunie under the name of Julie Bindel about how beauty isn’t skin deep, and how witty and Bet Lynchy I was.

  3. I did a little Googling on Sonia Keppel, Camilla’s grandmother and the daughter of Edward VII’s main squeeze Alice Keppel. Sonia was born in 1900, ten years before Ed. VII died.
    Perhaps Charles and Camilla are related by blood? If so, just another example of the Windors marrying their cousins as they’ve done for centuries.
    Alice was said to be one of the great beauties of the Edwardian age and also possessed of great charm. Perhaps Camilla in herited the charm, as we know she didn’t inherit the beauty.
