Queen Elizabeth issued ‘very specific warning’ to Queen Camilla before marrying King Charles
Charles exchanged vows with Camilla in April 2005 following their engagement in February. And now it’s been 19 years since they held their nuptials.
King Charles exchanged vows with Queen Camilla at Windsor Guildhall in April 2005 following their engagement in February. And now it’s been 19 years since they held their nuptials in a civil ceremony.
However, Queen Elizabeth II didn’t attend the event as Charles and Camilla actually tied the knot in an intimate ceremony with only 28 guests, including Prince William and Prince Harry. Camilla and her first husband Andrew Parker Bowles’ kids — Andrew Parker Bowles, Tom Parker Bowles and Laura Lopes — were also in attendance
Being the head of the Church of England, the Queen thought it would be inappropriate for her to attend his son’s wedding. Despite this, the Queen and her husband, Prince Philip, joined the newly-wed couple during the Service of Prayer and Dedication and by organizing a grand reception for them in Windsor Castle.
