A decade on from her marriage, Camilla has become an integral member of the British royal family, and has won over the public with her charm, wit and warmth. It is clear that both she and Charles are utterly devoted to each other; they visibly light up when they are together, and are often seen smiling and laughing on public engagements. "Travelling all over the world with the Prince, she has had a miraculous effect on him," royal biographer Penny Juror told the Telegraph. "He is happier, more relaxed and more confident than ever before."Importantly Camilla also maintains a great relationship with Charles' sons, Prince William and Prince Harry, along with William's wife, the Duchess of Cambridge, née Kate Middleton.
