Since the infamous "coming out" at the Ritz in January 1999, when she made her first official appearance as Prince Charles's mistress, Camilla Parker-Bowles has come of age. The woman once universally villified as a marriage-breaker looks increasingly confident in her public role. But how closely does she really involve herself with Charles's working life? Does she enjoy her semi-official standing as a consort in waiting? She has never made any bones about where her soul lies - in Wiltshire, with her garden, her dogs and her old friends. In this biography, Rebecca Tyrrel asks what it is really like to be Camilla Parker-Bowles. With the help of friends and county contacts, royal reporters and palace insiders, she explores how this urbane, witty and sexy, but intensely private woman copes with the knowledge that her future with the man she loves depends not so much on their feelings for each other as on two of the most unpredictable and mutually hostile institutions of the modern world: the palace and the media.
