Sources claimed that the future monarch took “urgent action” as he was “absolutely devastated, heartbroken”.
Royal correspondent for Vanity Fair, Katie Nicholl said that Charles “wrote to Camilla and pleaded with her to reconsider, but I think by this point, it was just too late.”
Meanwhile, royal writer, Penny Junor, remarked, “She was, I think, his first real love, and when you fall first, sometimes you fall hardest.”
