Camilla's awesomely homely children

I think the son was a cokehead.

The whole family should wear masks.

They're average, like most of us.

here it is

The son is really busted in the face.

"Nobody does ugly quite like the British."

She’s obviously been a good mother. Both her kids have been utterly loyal to her, and neither has sought to live off of their royal connection.

And she has a decent relationship with her ex-husband too: one aspect of the Coronation which surprisingly went unmentioned was that Andrew Parker-Bowles was an honoured guest, who sat beside his children and watched his ex-wife be crowned Queen. I’m not sure there is any historical parallel to that.

Camilla looks fine for a woman of her age.

Her daughter is likewise perfectly normal and pleasant-looking.

Her husband is a toad and the son takes after him.

But we can't all be Cary Grant.

And yeah, they all seem to get along okay.

More than I can say for the in-laws.

Laura Lopes' husband was a Calvin Klein underwear model, but unable to find any of those adds online. They must have scrubbed the internet pretty well.

In horse years maybe.

The thing that strikes me about the OP's picture is that they're all genuinely sharing a laugh.

And that makes anybody look good

[quote]She’s obviously been a good mother.

Not if one of them is a coke head. Many addicts are loyal to their dealer as well, doesn't mean they were raised right.

The daughter is fair. The son is a horror.

Well their mother is a Rottweiler.

I need to know their stance on Harry and Megan before I pass judgement.

Just kidding. They sho’ is ugly.

Fugly apple dosen't fall far from the fugly tree.

Prunella Scales defies dementia diagnosis to reprise iconic role as Queen Victoria:

R17. Good grief. Halloween came early!

LMFAO

Prunella needs to be a drag name

The daughter is pretty enough. The son is quite unfortunate.

Elisabeth Moss IS Laura Lopes!

They look fun. Wonder what sort of relationship they have with Baldy.

Tom looks like something you keep locked in your basement, hidden from the rest of the world.

What do you mean by "hear about them", OP? They are occasionally seen at events with their mother, Tom more than his sister. Tom is a food journalist and has a book called "Cooking and the Crown: Royal recipes from Queen Victoria to King Charles III" coming out next month. Other than that, they are private individuals leading private lives.

You can barely tell they have Rottweiler DNA.

Laura is an art curator.

Tom reminds me of one of the droogs in Clockwork Orange.

[quote] one aspect of the Coronation which surprisingly went unmentioned was that Andrew Parker-Bowles was an honoured guest,

Oh ffs, being cuckolded by the future King of England will get you a seat at his coronation. Nothing honorable about it.

[QUOTE]Her husband is a toad and the son takes after him.

Andrew Parker Bowles was *the catch* on the social circuit in the early '70s. I'm not making that up. He looked pretty much the same as he does now, only 50 years younger. He was also known as a ladies' man. I know.

Tom looks like he stepped out of Monty Python's upper class twit of the year sketch.

They're English of the gentry or "notables" stock, of course they'll win no Beauty Contests. They're well put together, that's all.

Is Tom a poof? He wrote a couple of fruity books about Fortnum and Mason and cooking.

Daddy Andrew is now the partner of game show host Anne Robinson. He probably loves it when, during sex, she yells out, "You are the weakest link."

I read [italic]The Year of Eating Dangerously[/italic] three years ago, so I knew who he was when his mummy became queen.

The son looks like the village idiot.

R27 yes! He does look like a fucking Droog from Clockwork Orange!

"Daddy Andrew is now the partner of game show host Anne Robinson. He probably loves it when, during sex, she yells out, 'You are the weakest link.'"

I'm actually kind of shocked that he has an age-appropriate partner.

Once again a bunch of Americans is attempting to apply American celebrity standards of appearance to British people who are neither American nor celebrities.

The aristocracy and upper middle classes in England don’t, on the whole, do cosmetic intervention. They focus on good health (outdoorsy sporty stuff like equestrianism and brisk walks in the rain) and good fun (lots of sex, drugs and booze).

Camilla’s offspring may be disheveled in a Beverly Hills sense but, while not knowing them, I’d suggest that they, like the rest of their class, would find that whole concept laughable. Their mother is Queen, their stepfather is King. They were both reportedly set up with very generous trust funds by Charles which Camilla requested as part of agreeing to marry him. They are intimately a part of the higher orders in the UK, have no money worries, meet anyone who they would like to meet and seem to be generally nice, low key people making the most of their particular station in life.

How many plucked, botoxed, lifted, Ozempicked, chiclet-toothed American celebrities can claim that?

If you want Hollywood standards of “beauty”, check out the Mail Online for WAGs, Essex alumni and “Glamour” “models” like Katie Price, Lauren Goodger and Demi Rose - not a lot to be aspired to, there.

And I was pushed out to make my way on my own! I had to write a book, star in a reality television show and push some godawful jam and tacky yoga mats to earn a living.

I think I saw the son's pic on a matchbook to draw for big prizes or art school.

Blimey, R36, all we’ve done is say Camilla and her son are ugly to the point of obscenity. You needn’t take it personally.

Not at all, R39, but I do understand that there is a particular type of American who can’t deal with anything other than positive feedback to their input, not requested, because Americans always know best, even when they don’t.

William and Harry are both incredibly lucky that Diana was their mother. At least they both had 30-ish good years before their looks went to hell.

Although, I supposed given that Harry seemed to end up with Diana's brains, as well as the Spencer looks contribution, he might have ended up with a better life with Cammy as his bio mother.

Queen Mary's ENORMOUS muzzle- mouth will live on!

R36...nicely put

I remember seeing Tom Parker Bowles on the Today Show a number of years ago when he was hawking his book. Nice fellow who related the story of his mother teaching him to make a Sunday roast. Down to earth sort, I remember thinking. A bit of outsiders, too, as both he and his sister, like their father, are Roman Catholics.

I still would not downplay the element of snobbery or class consciousness inherent in the sort in which the Parker Bowles were raised. For all their openness, they still might scoff at the Middletons for paving their drive rather having gravel.
