The headgear, I mean.
Today at The Vatican.

Camilla adores her dogs and they adore her.
That’ll do for me.

I am not a royalist but I think that Camilla is a very attractive woman with a charming face & a delightful, engaging personality.
She could wear anything and her vibrant energy would shine through. 😊

We’re all entitled to our opinions. I’m glad I’m not famous enough to have my outfits commented on in the media.
How lucky HMQ is unlikely to read GN. I wouldn’t like her to see all the 😾.

She is a Gran.
She might be on here with an interesting username.
I think you should have gone the whole hog and worn a crown, Camilla!

The Pope was wearing a dress.

Sorry couldn’t resist…..

Mollygo Sat 25-Oct-25 14:18:28

Was the Pope offended by what either of them were wearing? Did he mention it?
Or is it only grannies?

I didn't think there was any need for designer headgear and it looked a bit like a Halloween halo for a witch. I also thought the king should have worn a black suit and not a blue one. Whoever told him to wear that was wrong, respect shouldn't just come from a woman.

Dear me Camilla

She looks almost frightening. What on earth is that hat cum head gear about?

Really Gothic, dark and morbid.
Vying to be a modern day, Dickensian character?

Miss Havisham eat your heart out!

Mollygo - But a thread about hats was seen as a golden opportunity to pick on Camilla. This is the double standards I was talking about. St Diana despite being far from the innocent victim can do no wrong in some people's eyes yet Camilla can do no right.

Ugly hat, ugly woman. Poor Camilla?! Seriously. Ha ha. She deserves no respect and nor does Charles. I can't wait for William and Catherine to be King and Queen, it can't come quickly enough for me, because these two make my blood boil. Why anyone would support them is a mystery to me, knowing how they carried on.

What a judgemental post. Why do they make your blood boil, they are not hurting you.

You sound like hard work, do you judge everyone if the do not come up to your standards? Who are you to say you have no respect for them, are you a paragon of virtue who never makes mistakes and dies nothing wrong. I despair when I read posts like this.

Peaseblossom and Sheian I meant, re nasty comments.

Oh, I thought you meant me mentioning that many of us are on the mature side!

Speak for yourself ducky! 😄

😁

I did say many not all.

Momac55 Fri 24-Oct-25 22:25:47

Totally agree

I an genuinely shocked by the people who think it's fine Diana had affairs but not Charles. Talk about double standards. It's like children in a the playground saying they hit someone because, "they hit me first." The whole situation was sad and I believe avoidable but those of you still protesting that poor Diana was a victim need to have a long hard think about her behaviour.

I’m genuinely shocked that people take a thread about hats as an opportunity to drag in Diana.
(Actually I don’t know why I’m surprised on here)

The comments on this thread haven’t changed my mind, I thought HM looked stylish and respectful.

Flutterby345 Fri 24-Oct-25 20:57:16

I thought.it looked good. She has a square chin like me. I study carefully her hats and neckline. I think she's rather jolly

readsalot Fri 24-Oct-25 20:43:08

I rather liked it. Quite stylish.

lizzypopbottle Fri 24-Oct-25 20:29:11

GrannyGravy13 Thanks for the explanation about black for women meeting the pope. It looks like the woman is being shamed though.
