In June 1994, Charles openly acknowledged in a televised interview with Jonathan Dimbleby that he had been unfaithful to Diana during their marriage. However, the identity of the woman involved was not publicly confirmed until excerpts from his authorised biography, also written by Dimbleby, were released in the Sunday Times later that same month.

At the time, Dimbleby noted, “That they loved each other was not in any doubt. In Camilla Parker Bowles, the prince found the warmth, the understanding and the steadiness for which he had always longed and had never been able to find with any other person.”

While the public backlash against Camilla gradually diminished over the years, Angela Levin suggested that the experience likely left lasting impacts. She remarked that Camilla “must still bear the scars of it all.”

“She still gets nervous about things,” Angela explained, mentioning that Camilla will “probably be anxious” about Charles’ Coronation, scheduled for 6 May 2023.

“She can never be sure how people are going to react towards her,” Angela added. “There’s a small but very harsh group of people who still think she’s the wrong woman for him.”
