I absolutely could not care even one small whit what her title is.
its no business of anyone who our head of state is, certainly not anyone who dosent live and vote here.
its like someone here saying how the US president should be selected, none of our business.
Dont really know what to believe but its said Diana was the first to go off and cheat..
Well Charles first marriage was an arranged marriage. According to one of Diana closest friends Jemina Goldsmith claim it was. Yet Diana and Jermina Goldsmith clans are part of British aristocracy and arranged marriages were practiced in their families.
Charles was not getting any younger and he was pressured by the Royal family to produce a heir. When he was dating Diana, he was really pressured by Prince Philip to marry her. They only went on a few dates prior to Charles asking Diana to marry him. He just went along with what his father wanted and his duty according to the crown to marry Diana. The problem is he married a woman who he barely knew, and they only met just over a dozen times before getting married. Plus, he suspected all along he was not truly compatible.
In the end it doesn't matter who cheated first, because they were not a compatible couple. Charles had hoped for a companionable marriage but was old enough to know he wouldn’t get it with a teenage girl with whom he had nothing in common.

The Goldschmidt family were German Jewish aristocracy, with the English branch of the family Anglicised their name to Goldsmith, starting with Frank Goldsmith (1878–1967), who was Jemima's grandfather. Whilst Jemima's father Sir James Goldsmith was a very wealthy financier, so they weren't exactly traditional British aristocracy.
Sir James Goldsmith's third wife, Lady Annabel Goldsmith had the famous and ver exclusive Annabel's private members club named after her.
In 1995, Jemima Goldsmith now Khan married Muslim Imran Khan, a retired cricketer (who would later go on to serve as the 22nd Prime Minister of Pakistan from 2018 to 2022), with whom she had two sons. The couple divorced in 2004.
Jemima Khan (Goldsmith) was a close friend of Diana, Princess of Wales, who visited her in Lahore in 1996.
I don't think an older Muslim man would have been the families ideal chose of partner for Jemima, whilst Diana's relationship with Muslim Dodi Fayed also raised eyebrows, and there were rumours regarding the announcement she was set to make, and the fact that she died before this announcement could be made.

None of my business but the US media is obsessed with the British royals so I'll have a go.
IMO Charles is an idiot and always has been. Even his father knew that. Why he has such a fragile personality is a mystery. He's had every advantage life can offer. His mishandling of his first marriage is completely in character.
His compulsive concern about his current wife is slightly ridiculous. She is not a queen, she's not royal, she's a commoner. One would think Queen Consort would be enough for the silly woman.

that of course is just one persons opinion, to which they are entitled.
which wont make one blind bit of difference to Camilla becoming Queen.
