NOTES and EXCERPTS from Catherine Meyers' book BORN TO BE KING
In this book we learn it was mutual friend Lucia Santa Cruz who, in 1971, introduced Charles and Camilla with the jest "Now you two watch your genes because of Alice Keppel." The genes comment is because its possible they are distant cousins.
page 97
"Only Camilla has ever been able to be herself fully around the Prince because she has nothing to hide from him. Robust and cheerful, she entered the relationship free from neurosis and, ironically, from any expectation of being Queen"
page 98
"With Camilla, the Prince would eventually develop his first - and arguably, only truly adult relationship, combining love and passion, respect and equality, plus a sense of humor that often leaves both of them guffawing and weeping. Camilla is "Rude and raunchy" says actress Emma Thompson, approvingly.
Actress Emma Thompson provided information to the author of this book and is considered a personal friend of Prince Charles.
