Back when the soon-to-be king was lowly Prince Charles, he cheated on his wife, Princess Diana, with Camilla Parker-Bowles, who was also married at the time. Bowles, the world’s poster child for hanging in there, is now the Queen-Consort of the United Kingdom.
I’m not bringing this up to shame these people for having affairs (shit happens, ya know?), but to point out that in 1989, a “rogue radio enthusiast” recorded phone call between the two that included this exchange:
CHARLES: Oh, God. I’ll just live inside your trousers or something. It would be much easier!
CAMILLA: (laughing) What are you going to turn into, a pair of knickers? (Both laugh). Oh, you’re going to come back as a pair of knickers.
CHARLES: Or, God forbid, a Tampax. Just my luck! (Laughs)
I’m not kink-shaming here, but come on. You’re the king—surely you have better game than this.
