Imagine being one of the most beautiful and sought after women in the world and you get cheated on by a guy who looks like someone randomised all the sliders in fallout

    And with Camilla Parker, a woman with the appeal of a refrigerator from behind.

    A buddy of mine watched a documentary one time and she came away from it sympathetic to Charles and Camilla.

    According to my friend Camilla was absolutely the love of Charles' life. Like one of those love at first sight situations, from a young age. But apparently for reasons to do with being a royal prince he couldn't marry Camilla and instead ended up marrying a completely blameless, admittedly gorgeous but nevertheless not-Camilla Diana.

    I've no idea how true this version of events is but I like to believe it. It stands as a modern day example of the overwhelming, all conquering power of true love. True love brought them together, and nothing was going to keep them apart.

    All accounts I've heard have corroborated this. Charles & Camilla always loved each other. Charles marriage to Diana was arranged for reasons I don't clearly understand, but Charles & Diana never loved each other.

    I also think that's the case, in fact from what I understand he only cheated on her with Camilla and now they are married. In every story there is always a counterpart with its motives and whys.

    That doesn't make it any less painful for Diana, as Shaquira said "cambió un ferrari por un twingo"

    As in she, from behind, has the appeal of a refrigerator, or as in she, from any angle, has the appeal of a refrigerator from behind?

    She looks remarkably happy in this photo. Was probably a great relief to her that the man she didn't even love, she finally had a solid reason to leave him, and she's free & wealthy now.

    Free & happy for a few years anyway, until they fucking murder her. 😭

    How is this dress revenge? I'm new to being a woman I don't yet understand fashion language.

    Amazing what spending over $1,000/month on hair stylists alone can do.

    Granted, she was always good looking, but don't underestimate what almost unlimited money can do for you.

    wtf is a revenge dress? the only thing not ordinary about that dress is the trailing fabric hanging from the back. It looks absolutely standard fare for a famous person not counting the unhinged ones that move the average in a weird direction
