Queen Camilla<\/a>, the then Duchess of Cornwall, missed Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank<\/a> in October 2018 due to a longstanding prior commitment to attend a school harvest festival in Scotland. She reportedly did not want to disappoint local community members and schoolchildren who were expecting her.<\/p>\n

According to royal author Angela Levin, Camilla felt that Charles’s brother, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, “could have done more” to support her and Charles as a couple at a time when public opinion was strongly opposed to their relationship in the wake of Princess Diana’s tragic death.<\/p>\n

In her book ‘Camilla: From Outcast To Queen Consort’, she claimed that Andrew went so far as to try to get the late Queen Elizabeth II to call off the couple’s wedding in 2005.<\/p>\n

Angela Levin writes: “His behaviour became very, very negative and extremely unpleasant on not getting his way,” a source claimed, adding that Andrew allegedly felt Camilla was “insufficiently aristocratic and that she was not to be trusted.”<\/p>\n

They added that Andrew “remained so hostile about Camilla’s acceptance that it’s doubtful it has ever been forgiven”.<\/p>\n

As the relationship soured over the years, cracks began to show when she did not attend Eugenie’s wedding to Jack at St George’s Chapel in Windsor on October 12, 2018, just months after Prince Harry<\/a> and Meghan Markle<\/a>‘s wedding.<\/p>\n

While Eugenie’s parents, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and Sarah Ferguson’s friendship with convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein continues to be unveiled,<\/a> Queen Camilla has been busy with her work to bring attention to sexual violence faced by women.<\/p>\n

Speaking as president of the Women of the World group at St James’s Palace in London to mark International Women’s Day, Camilla said boldly, “We stand with you” and gave a powerful speech in defence of the victims<\/a> and survivors of violence and abuse.<\/p>\n

For viewers, it is likely to have been seen as a thinly veiled reference in support of Jeffrey Epstein victims and her brother-in-law, Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor’s alleged role.<\/p>\n

Being mentioned in the Epstein files is not a sign of wrongdoing, and Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor has denied accusations made against him.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Queen Camilla, the then Duchess of Cornwall, missed Princess Eugenie’s wedding to Jack Brooksbank in October 2018 due…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":842308,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[7708],"tags":[173775,240929,2205,13084,21440,2607,5105,7710,519,24553,448],"class_list":{"0":"post-842307","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-royals","8":"tag-andrew-mountbatten-windsor","9":"tag-eugenie-wedding","10":"tag-prince-andrew","11":"tag-princess-eugenie","12":"tag-princess-eugenie-of-york","13":"tag-queen-camilla","14":"tag-royal","15":"tag-royal-families","16":"tag-royal-family","17":"tag-royal-wedding","18":"tag-royals"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@uk\/116271553175271753","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/842307","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=842307"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/842307\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/842308"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=842307"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=842307"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=842307"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
