“And she thought ‘Andrew is at the moment off with Princess Anne, I’ll teach him a lesson’ so she had a fling with Charles.”

According to Ms. Junor, Camilla was deeply in love with Andrew Parker Bowles at the time, so she overlooked his infidelity. She knew he was sleeping around with other women – Including some of her closest friends.

At the Henley Literary  Festival in England on the weekend, Ms. Junor shared a tale about how Camilla caught Andrew having a fling with one of her friends. “There was a lovely story when she was walking through London in the evening and spotted his car parked outside the flat of a very good friend of hers.

“So she let the tires down and wrote a message in lipstick on his windscreen,” she said.

It seems that Andrew wasn’t the only one sleeping around at the time. Ms. Junor also claims that Charles also had numerous affairs in his 20s and 30s – many of them with married women.
