About this deal

The daughter of wealthy Scottish landowner Hamish Wallace, she is said to have dumped the Prince after he brought her to the Queen Mother’s 80th birthday party and then largely ignored her - instead dancing with Camilla Parker Bowles, who he had recently rekindled his relationship with.

Prince Charles was seen with his favourite girl friend, 25 year old ex debutante Davina Sheffield, at Smith's Lawn, Windsor, yesterday.Her life and lineage reportedly have already passed two palace checks, and she has survived at least that many meetings with Charles' parents, Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip. Dubbed too ‘flighty’ to be a serious contender, Diana’s elder sister Lady Sarah was ultimately her introduction to Charles, as she dated him first in 1977. Their romance only ended after the press discovered (via Beard) that Sheffield wasn’t a virgin – an archaic stipulation for any future royal bride at the time.

Prince Charles met Lucia Santa Cruz in 1967 at a dinner party hosted by a friend when he was studying at Cambridge University. She was also undeniably the prettiest of ‘Charlie’s Angels’, as the press collectively dubbed the women he dated.to add information, pictures and relationships, join in discussions and get credit for your contributions. Some royal biographers have suggested Camilla had an ulterior motive - to make her future husband, Andrew Parker-Bowles, jealous.

After being questioned over the couple's (supposed) impending engagement, she once snapped back, according to Tatler: 'Do you honestly believe I want to be Queen? But those rumours were put to an abrupt end in 1978 while she was on a ski trip with the Prince in the Swiss resort Klosters. Less than a year earlier, Amanda had lost her younger brother, Nicholas, and her beloved grandfather Lord Mountbatten in an IRA assassination on August 27 1979. A PIECE OF HISTORY – Each photo from IMS is an original editorial photograph with certified authenticity and provenance.Since then, the caseload of children treated with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) has increased vastly and incorporated other rare bone conditions, including Achondroplasia. Indeed, Camilla is said to have actively encouraged the Prince to pursue a relationship with his future wife Diana, who - at 19 and far from worldly wise - was thought to pose less of a threat. The prince was said to have a brief fling with Georgiana Russell, daughter of the former Ambassador Sir John Russell. They continued to date on and off until 1973, when Charles was sent away on HMS Minerva as part of his Royal Navy training. She also likes to make the odd cake, tackles a bit of DIY, gardens and most of all spends time with her family.
