"Camilla would probably talk more to the press on a casual basis but Clarence House officials guard against it. After visiting the graves of two soldiers whom her father had seen die at El Alamein, she came over to talk, albeit briefly, about how moving the experience had been. It may not have been a Panorama interview, but in the weird world of covering the royals it was notable.
If Camilla can help to improve relations between the Prince and the press it will be a major achievement. She has already transformed his life. The Prince of Wales seems to be a happier man and his contentment in his home life is beginning to show in public. The Duchess showed on the tour that she verges on the normal, and as such is crucial to the battle-scarred Prince.
She is sensible, warm, likes to laugh and gives him the support he craves and has often lacked in his life. Let’s hear it for Camilla. She could be the making of him."
A clever woman.
