Queen Camilla is ‘uproariously funny’ – and that’s according to the Prime Minister! These hilarious pictures show he’s absolutely right…
From Prime Ministers and film stars to charity bosses and members of the public – everyone who meets Queen Camilla agrees on one thing: what an absolute hoot she is.
In his new book published in the Mail this week: Charles III. New king. New Court tells Robert Hardman how Prime Minister Rishi Sunak described Her Majesty as ‘loudly funny’, and how his lasting memory of a weekend stay at Balmoral was ‘laughing with her a lot’.
In Hardman’s book, Camilla’s sister, Annabel Elliot, reveals that her big sister has never lost the mischievous sense of fun she has had since childhood, and that it is this humor that gets her through the demands of her role.
Actress and film director Emerald Fennell admitted she was nervous when she met Camilla – then Duchess of Cornwall – at an International Women’s Day gathering at Clarence House in March 2022.
Emerald had just portrayed Camilla on screen in The Crown as a chain-smoking man-eater and was worried she would get a frosty reception.
Instead, Camilla was warm and friendly, even joking that Emerald could intervene if she ruined the speech she was about to give.
The late Paul O’Grady, who developed a close friendship with Queen Camilla, described her as “a very funny woman, someone you can laugh with a lot.”
And King Charles’ niece, Sarah Troughton, Lord Lieutenant of Wiltshire, revealed how Camilla loves to hear and tell very risqué jokes.
Always quick with the jokes, here we look at all the times our rambunctious queen has confused people.
Charles had only been married for five months and had to stifle a laugh together at the Caister Lifeboat Station in July 2005. But his new wife’s playful side eye only made matters worse.
