i hug who i love particularly when they are affected by the selfishness of others in need
tearing up who are you referring to camilla why would i care about her because i care about her
diana commented in a channel 4 documentary that it was such a good idea of the two seas but it wasn't
that clever of all the heart-wrenching and fraught moments 19-year-old diana spencer had to contend
with and you've hurt her and if you hurt her you hug me surely finding engraved jewelry designed
for her fiance's mistress just days before her wedding must have been the most galling in series
four of the crown we're shown diana played by emma corin locked away alone in buckingham palace in
the onset of her decade-long struggle with bulimia discovering charles's designs for a bracelet that
bears the initials f and g this is obviously not a pre-wedding trinket meant for her but instead
for charles's mistress camilla parker bowles but is the series taking artistic license for
this particular subplot after all wouldn't the future king and all his aides be more discreet
while he was having an affair with a married woman it turns out there has been no flight of fantasy
in the penmanship of the show park to get in touch with you alex why would you do that because she's
great fun as not only did the real charles gift camilla the exact same piece of jewelry with
their pet names for each other but he fobbed off diana by telling her that it was a farewell gift
for an ex-lover even more remarkably camilla still wears it to this day the crown or its writer peter
morgan has likely pieced together a couple of different accounts to the scenario that is one
hundred percent rooted in fact according to andrew morton who wrote diana's biography diana her true
story using her own words the princess had said she visited the office of michael colborne who was
prince charles's personal secretary she said i was still too immature to understand all the messages
coming my way and then someone in his office told me that my husband has had a bracelet made for her
i walked into this man's office one day and i said ooh what's in that parcel and he said oh
you shouldn't look at that dot so i opened it and there was the bracelet she found a gold bracelet
from a sprays with a lapis pendant engraved with the letters f and g which were said to stand for
fred and gladys charles and camilla's pet names for each other taken from a sketch from the goon
show in the crown camilla emerald fennel tells diana their awkward lunch together it's my new
name for the prince of wales fred is my nickname for the prince of wales and he calls me gladys
it's harmless nonsense really not to diana both semi-fictionalized and in reality
she told morton i was devastated and i said well he's going to give it to her tonight you know
why can't you be honest with me but no absolutely cut me dead it was as if he'd made his decision
and if it wasn't going to work it wasn't going to work according to penny jr author of the duchess
the untold story a biography about camilla parker bowles there was a simple explanation for this
the prince is an inveterate giver of gifts especially jewelry as a way of thanking people
and he intended to see each of the women individually to say goodbye
not really he's obsessed by gardening yes i know it should be noted that junior is friends
with camilla so it might have been in her favor to rewrite history it's also the line that the
crown chose to use for charles played by josh o'connor to defend his ostentatious present
to add further insult charles insisted on hand delivering the sentimental present to camilla just
two days before his july 1981 wedding to diana said he took the bracelet lunchtime on monday
we got married on wednesday i believe it's a bracelet which the prince of wales has had made
the wedding went ahead as did the affair but camilla and charles continued to use jewelry
to brand their not so covert relationship in a move that would confirm them as hiding their
relationship in plain sight flaunting it even camilla gave charles cufflinks
emblazoned with two cs he wore them on his honeymoon with diana in 2017 video footage
of the late diana talking about her life was broadcast in the channel 4 documentary diana
in her own words very quickly that wasn't right
in it she said on our honeymoon cufflinks arrive on his wrists two seas entwined like the chanel
sea got it one knew exactly so i said camilla gave you those didn't she he said yes so what's wrong
they're a present from a friend and boy did we have a row jealousy total jealousy and it was such
a good idea the two c's but it wasn't that clever charles and diana separated in 1992 and divorced
in 1996. diana died in a car crash in paris a year later and then charles and camilla went on
to marry in april 2005. even now it appears that monogram jewelry is still a thing for charles and
camilla camilla gifted kate middleton with a charm bracelet printed with the letter c and a crown on
top as a wedding present in 2011. presumably this present wasn't quite as territorial as
the other branded jewelry previously gifted by the pair historically i need to speak to her
don't fog me off it is absolutely essential that i see the queen this wedding can't go ahead it'll be
a disaster for everyone her majesty is unavailable at the moment hope you liked that video and if you
