Sky News take on it:

CHARLES TO WED CAMILLA

Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles are to marry.

Clarence House has confirmed reports they will wed, with the rumoured date April 6 in Windsor.


The 56-year-old heir to the throne and his long-term partner will marry in St George's Chapel.

Charles divorced the late Diana, Princess of Wales in 1996. She died the following year.

The Prince has in recent years given Camilla a more prominent public role, frequently taking her to official engagement.

But she had no official royal position and at engagements they were sometimes seated apart.

They first met at a polo match in Windsor, Berkshire, in 1970.

Their marriage will raise the issue of how she will be addressed, the possible options Princess of Wales or even, when Charles becomes King, Queen Camilla.

Royal commentator Jennie Bond told Sky News: "It's brilliant news. I've long said they should get on with this."

She said Camilla was a "very nice woman" but admitted: ""There will be quite a lot of hostility from those who do not like her."

 

[Deano's Right Foot]

oh for christ's sake - loads of fawning media coverage for those overpaid wastes of space.

*puts hands over ears and goes blah blah blah blah*

Radio Five Live are having a very heated debate now, and a leader of the Church of England states he will have to abdicate, due to Camillia being a divorcee.

If he goes that will be 2 abdications in under 100 years. Can we get rid of the lot of them and actually have a head of state that bothers to stand for election?

Royal commentator Jennie Bond told Sky News: "It's brilliant news. I've long said they should get on with this."

She said Camilla was a "very nice woman" but admitted: ""There will be quite a lot of hostility from those who thing she's a sour faced old boot that could scare off the 1998 Denver Broncos just by looking at them."

[Stinky Kat]

Will we get a public holiday?

 

[Man of Harveys]

It'll be a morganatic marriage, I imagine (there's a word you don't read often enough on NSC).

"No way to control it, it's totally morganatic", as the Pointer Sisters once put it.

Penny Junor, Charlies biographer "I saw him yesterday, and had no idea this was going to be announnced."
