Camilla’s Country Life has divided opinions: some viewers said the Duchess of Cornwall (pictured) looked “full of themselves” and “hypocritical” for telling people to “be considerate” after her relationship with Prince Charles, while others said she would. be a “great” queen consort
The ITV documentary, which aired last night, followed the royal family (pictured with her husband, Prince Charles) hosting this month’s Country Life issue to celebrate her 75th birthday and 125th anniversary on Sunday.
Some viewers called the royal family “hypocritical” for their comments, referring to their relationship with the Prince of Wales before they married and instead marrying Princess Diana.
The Duchess and Prince Charles insist that their romantic relationship would not continue until 1986 – during which time Diana’s marriage to the Prince of Wales was “irreversibly interrupted”, as the future king himself put it in a television documentary.
However, some viewers weren’t impressed by Camilla’s comments about being considerate, and one tweeted: [Buckingham Palace] I’m trying to please people, I don’t think it’s going well. He is so full of himself.
Another said: “Others be aware… it’s shocking given Camilla’s story with Charles and Diana.”
A third added: ‘Camilla’s hypocrisy about Camilla’s country life. “Introduce others” and “Try to be respectful of others”. Yes, just like you and [Prince Charles] when you’re both in a relationship while you’re married to other people.’
However, while some Twitter users praised the program and applauded Camilla’s work, not all reviews were negative.

Another wrote: ‘What a wonderful woman, very realistic. She’ll make a great queen consort. The campaign needs champions like you ».
A third person said online: “Great show. Always liked it! And that makes Prince Charles very happy! A wonderful queen consort awaits!’
Royal biographer Angela Levin attended the show and publicly commented on Camilla’s journey.
“She was once featured in a newspaper as the worst woman on the planet and the most hated woman on the planet, and now here, it’s the most extraordinary journey,” she said.
As Sarah Troughton, one of the Queen’s cousins and a friend of Camilla, puts it: “I think there is a wind of change in the popularity of the Duchess.
Answer: Still others insisted that Camilla would make an “amazing” queen consort after watching the show.
“But I think it’s because he’s so natural, so honest with everyone… and doing his royal duties with real style and style, and the audience is so happy to meet him.”

Viewers took to Twitter to praise Camilla for her work on domestic violence.
