History Between Prince Charles And Camilla Set To Be Demolished?

British royal family news reveals that the romance between Prince Charles and Camilla started decades ago at a place called Stack House. It is an apartment block in Belgravia where Camilla used to live.

Why is this significant? Because some royal experts are talking about the fact that the building is set for redevelopment with plans to actually raze the building where Prince Charles first set eyes on his present day wife Camilla.

It reportedly is in this building that the then-Camilla Shand and Charles returned after debuting their relationship on their first public date.

Camilla was a daughter of a World War II hero and Charles was, and is, heir to the throne. Their love story is multi-layered; from a humble apartment building all the way to Buckingham Place, Clarence House, Highgrove and Birkhall in Aberdeenshire.

Given the history between Prince Charles and the Duchess of Cornwall, some are crying foul at the idea of razing to the ground the actual building where this couple made history.

But the Duke of Westminster’s Grosvenor Estate wants to demolish the 1950s set of dwellings in what amounts to a £400 million redevelopment scheme.

Now comes word that yesterday royal officials had to assert that Camilla had not, as had been reported, intervened privately in this ongoing bruhaha. An old friend once recalled, “Camilla’s bedroom always looked like a bomb had hit it … the bathroom was always a state after she’d been in it.”

Ironically, Charles’s first visit to Stack House was in 1971 when he was seeing Lucia Santa Cruz, the daughter of the then Chilean ambassador to London. She was the one who introduced him to her neighbor Camilla.

When her family returned to Chile, Lucia stayed in London, living at Stack House, right above Camilla.

The landlord, the Duke of Westminster, reserved special apartments for his relatives and friends and Camilla got an in because her mother was the sister of Lord Ashcombe whose grandfather, Thomas Cubitt, built Grosvenor Estate.

Fast forward to the present day and the prince and his wife congratulated his son Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle, on their announcement that they will make the elder pair grandparents again!
