Queen Camilla and King Charles have been married for nearly two decades already. However, even if they appear happy most of the time, their marriage isn't as perfect as it seems.
Queen Camilla And King Charles Close To Getting Divorce?
The king and queen consort had a moderate wedding compared to his big day with Princess Diana. However, many believe King Charles is happy with his current wife compared to his first spouse.
But just like other marriages, their relationship isn't smooth sailing. It reportedly came to a point when they almost got divorced.
"It's no wonder Charles and Camilla have such a toxic relationship," a palace insider told Radar Online. "Their union is built on the bones of their previous marriages that they destroyed."
An insider claimed that Prince William's father and stepmother nearly got divorced. Camilla's father, Bruce Shand, reportedly disapproved of the royal for his daughter but didn't get to witness how their marriage was falling apart.
Shand died in 2006, just a year after King Charles married Camilla. He was 89. He "didn’t live to see how stormy and vicious his daughter’s second marriage has become,” an insider said in 2019.
"Charles and Camilla have been on the verge of a divorce for years," the tipster said.
Although Camilla's dad didn't like His Majesty, he reportedly grudgingly accepted their relationship. Meanwhile, the current king had reportedly "grew fond" of his father-in-law and admired his "courage, wit and impeccable manners."
