Royal biographer Christopher Wilson says the young Camilla Shand was a party animal who “moved with a lively crowd” and cared only for “evenings, weekends, horses, hunting, people and parties”. In his book, A Greater Love, Wilson said what Camilla “lacked in conventional beauty was more than made up by personality and undeniable sex appeal”.

Former boyfriend Kevin Burke said: “She was terrific fun, popular, attractive and sexy. She was never tongue-tied or shy – she always had something amusing to say.”

It was that same, sexy wit that captivated Charles when they met at a Windsor polo match in 1970 and again in 1972 at a London club.
