A new side of the duchess has come out to the public — one that’s very much needed at a time where the longevity of the monarchy is questioned.
The future queen consort turned 75 on Sunday and to mark the occasion Clarence House released a new official birthday portrait.
In the photo, Camilla is wearing a blue floral Sophie Dundas summer dress while posing in her garden with a cup of tea and a bowl of peaches on the table. She also wore the independent British brand on the cover of Country Life magazine, which she guest-edited with theHRH the Duchess of Cornwall photographed at Raymill in Wiltshire by HRH the Duchess of Cambridge.Inside the issue, her food writer son Tom Parker Bowles writes about the fruit, mentioning that “my mother is a keen grower of white peaches .”in 2005, the duchess has been gradually on a path to ameliorate her public image.
In British Vogue’s July issue, she revealed that she “was scrutinized for such a long time that you just have to find a way to live with it. Nobody likes to be looked at all the time and, you know, criticized.”, especially Queen Elizabeth II, who celebrated her Platinum Jubilee celebrations in June. A new side of the duchess has come out to the public — one that’s very much needed at a time when the longevity of the monarchy is being questioned; her husband is preparing to fill the shoes of his mother, and there is the need to counteract “The Crown’s” portrayal of her in the hit Netflix series.nor is she competing with the beloved royal who she was once in a love triangle with. Camilla’s strategy, like Kate Middleton’s, is to serve and stay on brand for the crown.
