King Charles and Queen Camilla arrived in Italy on Wednesday evening. They just did a tarmac greeting with various Italian and Vatican officials, then they went to their hotel or whatever and rested for their big day, which is today. These photos are of Charles and Camilla arriving in Vatican City. Today is the day when Pope Bob (Pope Leo) gets to “pray” with a divorced Anglican adulterer who is sheltering and protecting his rapist degenerate brother. This whole thing is part of Charles’s bucket list for some reason, he’s been trying to stage something big with a pope for a while. Pope Francis didn’t play his games, but Pope Bob is like “sure, whatever, let’s do this.”
So, let’s talk about Camilla and what she’s wearing? There’s a dress code in Vatican City, for general visitors, including women not exposing their knees or shoulders. Specifically for Protestant women who are heads of state/first ladies/queen consorts, women are expected to wear black and be as covered-up as possible, with some kind of head covering. Incidentally, there’s an exception for Catholic queens, like Spain’s Queen Letizia – it’s called “privilège du blanc,” which means they can wear white when they’re meeting a pope. So, Camilla is an Anglican divorcee and adulterer, and as such, she had to wear black and some kind of head covering. I’m not sure they were expecting THIS headpiece though. What in the world?
Anyway, it’s worth noting that 2025 is the Vatican’s Jubilee year. That’s why Charles has been so focused on visiting the Vatican this year in particular, almost to the exception of everything else. I still find it odd that the head of the Church of England is so focused on this.

Death becomes camilla. Omg early Halloween. Im scared
Moira Rose did it better.
Underrated comment.
Yes!! Moira Rose! That’s the look she’s copying here LOL. Thank you!
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/C0MHwkN4-iw
Oh snap! I came to make a goth widow joke, but it’s so pointless now the perfect comment has been made already.
Well said 🎯
It looks like a halo of crow wings. It’s giving Fall of the House of Usher.
Ursula, the sea witch vibes. Totally fitting for Chuckle’s side piece.
Agreed. That headpiece is just ghastly…it screams “Look at ME”. It’s supposed to be small, simple and respectful, in keeping with the solemn occasion. It’s the exact opposite!
Her make up is even worse.
Tasteless. She is at the Vatican, not Royal Ascot.
Whoever suggested that veil , hates her
It’s giving “Royal Ascot Ladies’ Day”, if they were racing thestrals… it’s very Dia de los Muertos…
Is this a Treacy concoction? If it is he should hang his head in shame, jaysus
I will LMAO if she wears this outfit again for chucklehead’s funeral.
(The question which must be asked: What’s the opposite of a Chubbly?)
She’s ready for Halloween LMAO
She went full Maleficent. This image will haunt my dreams.
That was my first thought, too, when I saw this! Totally fits the Disney Maleficent/evil queen vibe.
In a way its fitting that King Henry VII broke with the catholic church because he wanted a divorce & started the church of england & now the current head of the church of england returns to the pope, another divorcee who married his mistress.
Not a good look for england. And that headthing is awful.
Yes that symmetry of Charles being the first divorced head of the church of England since the split is amusing
It looks like she’s previewing what she’s going to wear at Chuck’s funeral. Meanwhile, he’s wearing an electric blue suit to the Vatican. Huh?
I thought his choice of blue suit odd, as well. And a black tie, I think? I know the protocol for women meeting the Pope is black w/head covering, but not sure about men. Assumed it was black as well. Although I do know lately Popes have been cool with whatever people wear.
Henry VIII – you missed an “I” 😉
Given the Catholic church’s many scandals, Charles has quite a lot of similarities with the Vatican.
Seriously. There’s nothing morally wrong with divorce. As I said in a previous thread, Charles’s crimes against Diana started before they were even married. Let’s not get into the crimes the Catholic church as perpetrated for centuries and very much recently.
Apparently Camilla never wanted to be Queen and then she puts on some weird or attention grabbing outfit that says the opposite is true.
Attention grabbing and insulting. He begs for an audience with the pope and she shows up like that??? It’s like she’s flipping off the vatican. Is he there to ask for forgiveness for his sins? I don’t get it.
On the other hand, I’m tired of men prescribing /prohibiting women’s clothing and emphasizing hem and sleeve lengths, head coverings, choice of colour etc. it’s just another way to exert control and a visible display of dominance. I love that Camilla wore what appears to be a murder of crows taking flight from her head. It ensures the conversation is about female dress requirements and is a great metaphor for these archaic rules. Much as it seems that Leo will be a good pope.
Well said, “Camilla wore what appears to be a murder of crows taking flight from her head. ” Most unfortunate of Camilla to wear a thorny headpiece to meet the Pope
@ Liz – I would buy that argument if she showed up in a regular dress. I don’t think for a minute that Cami is making a statement against dress codes. This is a woman who has constantly profitted from an archaic caste system and gleefully watches her friends bash other women. She is a woman who trots out stolen jewels and wears ridiculous costumes on her own turf. She’s no feminist, and she is no spokeswoman for women’s rights.
@Liz: agree re dress codes. They’re almost always aimed at women, which irks me no end.
Btw why does she have to wear black whilst he’s in blue?
I think that’s a bit of a faux pas on Charles’s part. It’s not exactly a rule, as it is for the women, but certainly by custom men are supposed to wear black as well. If you look at photos of every king or male head of state visiting the Vatican (including Charles on previous occasions) , they’re in black.
William also wore blue to Pope Francis’s funeral. I don’t know if was some sort of flex, like haha I’m head of my own church too! (or will be in his case) because William wore blue to Pope John Paul II’s funeral too.
I wonder whether Charles thinks he’s not just any king: as head of the Anglican Church, he thinks he’s Bob’s peer.
Oh my goodness Camilla looks terrible .
That outfit would terrify children .
Charlie looks aged , but still pompous after purification from the pope .
Not sure what they are trying to achieve , to be honest .
I believe it is required for women on official visits to the Vatican. As she is not Catholic she does not have the privilège du blanc to wear white, as is expected from Catholic Queens.
because there is no rule that men have to wear black — we always make a big deal out of it, but blue or gray are perfectly acceptable alternatives to black.
Sort of funny given that Charles’s first wife apparently preferred him in blue, which was the excuse for his blue funeral suit in 1997.
Yes, exactly this (Wendy’s comment) you don’t have to wear black for a papal audience and certainly not this pope. Technically it’s no bare arms, bare shoulders or knees. As long as you’re covered up you can choose how much Catholic history you want to pay mind to, a lot of leaders want to telegraph respect for history and that’s fine.
PapalAudience.org
Rosalind Carter wore a smart brown suit, Angelina wore a great black dress, neither wore hats.
Because she is a woman, it’s as sexist as the aristocratic system.
Welp, she found a new spin on Bride Of Chucky.
I hope there will be merch for sale in the Palace gift shop in time for Halloween!
Death crown of DOOM.
Reminds me of the temu crown Kate wore 😂
Came here to say the same thing!
So did I. Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
Was going to ask if she borrowed Kate’s coronation “tiara” and had staff dump it in black acrylic paint.
Same thought! Grab the forget to reshape the “crown” after it came out of the crumpled shoe box under the bed, grab black spray paint, some weed barrier, and you’re good to go.
LOL!
So happy I saw your comment! I thought I was seeing things. 😀
I was thinking the same thing! 🙂
Tis the witchy season. She wore a Halloween costume! I’m laughing for real. Love how she’s shaking hands with someone but making eye contact with the camera. Very Katian moves.
These photos are brand damaging to the monarchy imo. An aging frail looking king and his wife who is dressed up like something out of a horror movie visiting the Vatican during a huge scandal involving his brother and ties to Jeffrey Epstein. Not a good look!
God this is so horrible it is hilarious… wtf was she thinking?
Her face is from a horror movie so it’s nice to have the outfit match.
The Crypt Keeper
I don’t know with this type of stuff it feels like Charles is trying to rack up as many firsts as he possibly can as King. He’s definitely not going to have 70 years to be the first to do numerous things the way that his mother was, and he wants something to be written in his biographies that is all King Charles and not Prince of Wales.
Also, that is a very interesting hat. I will never understand British personal taste when it comes to these hats, and fascinators. It all looks so bizarre to me, but to each its own.
Will she also wear that headpiece on halloween.
The Crows Have Eyes – The Crowening
No offense to the magnificent Moira Rose.
The crow movie from Schitt’s Creek was my first impression too! It looks like a murder of crows circling her head. Maybe I should go with vultures.
Maybe this is her audition tape for the fourth Crows movie?
I’m feeling a bit too woozy post flu shot to come up with any clever names.
I was just thinking about the Ravens in the Tower
“if they fly away the monarchy ends” was the old superstition
but what happens if the sidepiece consort plucks their wings OFF and sticks them on twelve yards of black tulle?
what curse is that headpiece invoking??
What are the men’s rules of dress? Color? Head dress? Seriously, the world over, it’s generally women that are required to wear odd clothing that makes them stick out to the general public.
Dark colored suit — from what professor Google tells me.
I would argue that the dress code did not force her to wear an overbaked mallard on her head – a simple lace veil would have sufficed.
And look a lot better, I remember going to a Catholic funeral in the late 50s mother and I both wore a black chiffon scarves over our heads, I was jealous because my brother didn’t have to wear one.
The strict rules are to cover up. Everything changed with Vatican II in the 60s, people can choose how much ‘Catholic history/respect for tradition’ they want to channel.
The Vatican is fairly online (Pope Bob tweets a lot) and papalaudience.org is easy to check.
Cruell a de Ville outfit.
She could have worn a simple black lace small piece but nooooooo she decided to go full on scary nightmare Bridzilla head piece. She knows no shame!!
Is that a…crown of thorns?
That is totally the vibe and my first thought–!
Sure looks like it.
Crown of thorns. That’s all I could see also. WTF
Someone tell Camilla horses are supposed to bridles, not bridal veils.
Yea, yea, yea Camilla…you’re the queen. Always having to make that point no matter where you are. Ewwww!
Diana and queen elizabeth wore black veils when they visited popes.
Finally, an image of Camzilla to use in perpetuity.
Whoever said she’s wearing a murder of crows headpiece is the comment of the week!
The consort Charles deserves.
I wonder if he’s pissed that she’s over-shadowing him like he would anyone else. She looks like a drama queen with that ridiculous get-up and he looks undercooked and befuddled.
Keen And her homemade coronation tiara and Camilla garish veil go hand in hand as bad taste in royal headpieces.
I actually thought the homemade tiara looked nice although I thought it was a silly thing to do, and as for dragging Charlotte into her rebellion, not fair.
So she is a divorced adulterer who is now theoretically (ONLY theoretically, from the Roman Catholic POV, though obvs that has gross problems too) married to, the head of the Anglican church . . . and she shows up in VATICAN CITY, ROME wearing a BLACK laurel wreath?
You know, the headgear of victory in battle? The thing you wear to a triumphal parade? Like Augustus did, or Charlemagne? The headgear also associated with achievement in the arts – hence the term ‘poet laureate’ and the portraits of Petrarch wearing same?
But, like, spray painted black? Because it was required? But a laurel wreath. IN ROME.
And THIS is “soft diplomacy”?
GROSS.
Good observation!
I don’t think she thinks about things that deeply.
Do any of them, Think Kate’s headdress as a way of getting back at Camila’s ban on tiaras, it just made Kate look petty.
Keen’s headdress was ugly and cheap looking even though it cost a lot of money.
I thought of a crown of thorns
It is full of symbolism imo.
The shape is a throwback ändå nod to her two headpieces she wore at her wedding the golden one and the white . And now this black one. It is tasteless to say the least but also what message is she sending here? Jmo
Jeepers! If only there were a student of art history in the family to help her with that sort of thing. 🧐
That head thing: TERRIBLE.. the type of stuff seen in nightmares.
I think the headdress is befitting on the Rottweiler.
No matter how hard Camilla tries, she seems to always manage to (intentionally or unintentionally) project herself – a tacky, wicked looking adulterer – the woman responsible for a great deal of misery in Diana’s life and Diana’s children’s life. It looks like Camilla is basking in the significance of the visit, it seems important for her as much as Charles. Maybe they both hope to leave there feeling like their sins will be fully washed away and that they’ll be absolved of Diana’s death and their contributions towards the torment she endured when she was alive. 🤷🏽♀️
I also think Charles sees this as an opportunity to have it be some sort of pillar for his legacy. Unfortunately for him, his legacy as a failed husband, father and grandfather will overshadow everything else he has done in his life. 😏
It’s ironic how Diana got criticized for slightly changing her hairdo at a parliament opening. Yet Charles second wife makes herself front and center with the garish headpiece.
Looks like my Salem halloween costume a bit except I looked awesome. She’s frumpy and frightful. How is that possible. Morticia come get your parlormaid. The Pope wants no smoke.
I 🖤 this for them😠
The outfit would be fine if it weren’t for that weird crown. Like what was the idea there?? Who thought “yes thats the look, lets go for it!”
Besides that I dont think this visit is so weird or that Charles is gatecrashing the Vatican or anything. He’s met the past few popes, including John Paul in England, so this just sort of seems par for the course in my mind.
As for the religious aspects of it – I think part of how Charles operates is that he compartmentalizes very well so he doesn’t see the irony here or any issues. He thinks “hey I’m the head of the Church of England, this is the Pope, we don’t care about what happened 500 years ago, we’re going to be prayer buddies” and DOESNT think about how he treated his first wife or his younger son or his brother etc. I think this is part of Charles’ issue in general – he sees these things as very separate and distinct issues and doesn’t realize that most people see them as connected.
The only weird thing about this visit is how Charles is trying to make it a big deal
It’s only a big deal because a British monarch has had nothing to do with the Vatican of over 500 years, and Chuck wanted this farcical visit for his legacy. Too bad he took his adulteress wife with him and she looks like the bride of Frankenstein/ Merry Widow!
Queen Letizia can wear white? She’s divorced.
Letizia’s first marriage was a civil ceremony only, so from the RC point of view, it wasn’t a real (that is, sacramental) marriage. She also would have to attend confession before her RC-approved marriage ceremony as a matter of course. So for the Pope, she basically isn’t divorced, she just had a kind of a wild youth with a rough breakup.
Camilla s ex is a Catholic. Camilla never converted to Catholicism. The Catholic rules don’t apply to Camilla. Catholics need to get annulment if they want to remarry in the church
@Libra didn’t ask about Camilla.
Only female monarchs or consorts from Spain, Belgium, Monaco, Luxembourg and Naples can wear white in the Pope’s presence. It’s an long tradition called Privilège du blanc. Both Letizia and Sophia can wear white, and both Mathilde and Paola can wear white even though only Letizia and Mathilde are currently on the throne.
Some popes have been more sticklers about ladies wearing the veil (and its color) than others. Benedict XVI was predictably insistent, but Francis didn’t really care all that much and met with Angelina Jolie who showed up with no veil and, I believe, IN PANTS. 😱 I think Camilla skipped the veil on their last private audience with Francis as well. Queen Rania wore a black dress and a white veil, despite not being a Catholic. Seeing what prominent guests wear to these first meetings with a new pope is always interesting because it can be a way to gauge his modernity.
That said, I actually LOVE the tradition of veiling at the Vatican from a strictly fashion viewpoint. My God, it can be so beautiful and feminine when a lady gets it right. Grace Kelly and Jackie Kennedy knew how to do it, obviously. In more recent times, Charlene does as well, whether in white or black. The Spanish royals usually look exquisite, especially when they go with the gorgeous mantillas and peinetas (the big combs). Jill Biden and Laura Bush wore small, understated lace veils and looked lovely. Michelle Obama actually looked a little dowdy on her first visit, but she had to err on the side of caution because it was with Benedict XVI. Melania, as much as I hate to say it, looked perfect. Ivanka wore a piece of black tulle stuck to a headband, which I always thought it was the worst because it was just so plain, no thought put into it at all. Looking at whatever this is on Camilla’s head, I’d like to apologize to whoever hot glued that tulle to Ivanka’s headband. This is a cheap-looking (but no doubt hideously expensive) MESS.
Diana and the Late Queen did it right.
It’s not a fashion show.
It most certainly is. When you proscribe rules of dress for women the individual woman herself will put her own twist on things. Always.
I recall reading years ago that only Spanish queens had the privilege of wearing peinetas with their mantillas when meeting the pope. No idea if that’s still the case, but there are photos of queens prior to Letizia meeting the pope while wearing mantillas with ginormous peinetas. Her immediate predecessor, Queen Sofia, wore a gigantic peineta when she met John XXIII. And there’s a story, probably apocryphal, about Eva Peron being instructed to remove her peineta prior to meeting Pius XII as she didn’t have the Spanish royal privilege. Photos of Peron with the pope have her in a long black dress with a train and a long mantilla, but no peineta.
Honestly, when I saw Horsilla’s headgear I wondered if she was trying to copy the Spanish peineta. I doubt she’s that knowledgeable about such customs, but still …
That’s a hideous bridal veil for a devil’s wedding.
I’m surprised Cam’s dresser/assistant let her be seen like this.
She looks ridiculous. It would have been better for the photo up to leave her at home.
Hideous!
Suitable word. A great reflection of the Windsor brand under Charles’ reign. 🤭
Oh my god. No blaspheming, but JFC. As a Catholic myself — largely latent — I find the veiling actually more intriguing and mystique-adjacent than offensive. If you treat it as a fashion statement, you look stunning. Guess who would lovely lovely in a veil, refined, elegant, and dignified?…. Meghan. Camilla just looks… awful. I’m not commenting on her looks, I don’t like that, I’m commenting on her *taste* and judgement. Her choices. This is all wrong. And when outsiders in England get the etiquette / tone / protocol wrong, man, do these howling hyenas go off. So let’s pay Camilla the compliment of a pot to a screeching kettle: WRONG. All wrong. Just wrong. She looks, a) self-satisfied, positively chuffed with her hideous get-up, adorned by the perpetual smirk; b) like she totally misread the room and what must have been copious and detailed instructions that have been issued to every single woman accompanying a head of state for …ever, and, c) boozy. This is a costume you wear on a dare from a bunch of boozed-up drinking buddies on a hen night. Or a stag night. It’s the British sense of, pratfall. Do what you would *never* do at home. Be an ass. Fall on your ass. There’s actually a show here called “Banged up Abroad,” about English tourists who get arrested for doing stupid & offensive things in other countries, like getting fall-down drunk, or vandalising places, or engaging in a wee spot of football hooliganism. It’s the sense of entitlement that leads them to take no one else’s sense of propriety, decorum, or customs seriously. Like when Prince William commented that the Diplomatic Reception was like attending a party in “fancy dress.” ….and the only reaction you can have, if you’re a skeptic, is, mate, have you looked in a mirror? When you’re kitted out in those breeches? The knee-highs? With the sashes and the ribbons? Talk about a costume rig. Blathering about protocol at home then inflicting your bad taste all over the planet is not …chic.
One of UK’s most progressive newspapers is running a very short video compilation of the visit. First, it shows Camilla again is shaking like a leaf, unable to hold the prayer program. I again assert motorneuron disease is not outside the realm of possibility. Second, she visibly irritates KC by failing to recognize that unlike other venues, this is not one wherein attempts to joke or ridicule are appropriate or welcome. She appears to keep muttering whilst hiding her face behind program as to not be seen, and KC ignores her like Pegs ignores Keen. It’s bad. Lastly Camilla is totally disengaged, looking bored and at what point, fumbles around trying to find the right page — I mean, she is seriously lost. And shaking.
Thank you for sharing the televised optics. It puts a great deal of this farce (Charles state visit to the Vatican) into perspective for me. Charles is pursuing this for his personal needs and tacky Camilla is just along for the ride but would prefer to be back home.
Camilla is entirely classless. She has no sense of how to comport herself with dignity.
Money and status do not equate with class and dignity. She’s living proof.
I wonder whether Charles ever regrets the conjugal choices he’s made.
I hope they keep him awake at night. If anyone deserves a little grief in their life it’s him.
I dont think Charles regrets anything except maybe that his parents didn’t love him the best.
@Bisynaptic
The man who wanted to be her Tampon? Haha 😂
Nah…I think he’s all in with her. Lol 😝
Charles, The Tampon King 🙌
Charles aired his grievances in this authorized biography by Dimbleby. He may well still think he was “wronged” and nothing is his fault.
Camilla looks like a character created by Tim Burton.
She acts like one too.
Only missing the broom and the cauldron 🔥💀
Fug. Why didn’t she just wear a mantilla?
Someone must have told her that this design suits her. Her wedding headdress had similar side-swept thing going, and the tiara that was commission for her upon marrying Charles did as well. Reader, the design is ridiculous.
Which tiara was “commissioned” for Camilla? I’ve only ever seen her wear her family tiara and then those from the BRF jewels. I haven’t even seen mentioned any tiara made for her that she doesn’t wear. (and I read royal jewelry blogs; it’s fantasyland of design for me)
I feel like Tippi Hedren should be nearby. This is giving me “The Birds” vibes.
😬 I saw that movie on TV when I was a kid. Haunts me to this day.
Good lord that is hideous. It probably cost more than I make in a week.
Hideous. The entire thing. Hideous.
Crown of thorns?
Is it alive? She looks like the Wicked Witch of the West Wind.
It’s as horrible a headpiece as she is…. Ick
It’s an apt representation of the Windsor brand at this juncture of its existence. 🙌
Why couldn’t she wear a nice mantilla instead of a black bridal veil. So fug.
Out of everything to criticize Charles for, his commitment to ecumenicalism and acceptance of what is nearly 10% of the English population should not be one of them.
Her outfit with the crazy headpiece seems mocking or satirical and her smile too. If she’s going for the old crone look she succeeded.
OBIIYA.
If you know you know. Ugh.
In attempting to identity what this thing is on her head, I did an extreme close-up and these are tiny bats. I have no idea what this means.
She’s shaking hands and looking directly into the camera rather than the person she’s shaking hands with. She planned her outfit well if she wanted to make a statement. It’s unfortunate that it doesn’t tend to convey respect.
She looks like a much older Tippi Hedrin in Alfred Hitchcock’s The Birds or like a widow with black blades above her veil. Hideous, but this is Camilla we’re talking about
I burst out laughing when I first saw the photo. After I stopped laughing, I thought it was offensive, and disrespectful somehow. On closer look, it does look like black laurel leaves.
On the other hand, I think this rule that women should wear veils when meeting a pope should be abolished. It’s misogynistic at the very least. I notice that the Queen in late life simply wore a hat. A hat or a scarf requirement is much less offensive than having to wear black and wear a veil. Anyway, that smirk and veil together makes Camilla look ludicrous at the very least, almost witch-like, in fact.
It’s hard not to see the irony of this visit, an adulterous king of England became head of a Church because he wanted a divorce, and hundreds of years later, an adulterous king of England arrives back to the Mother church after divorcing his first wife and marrying his mistress whom he made Queen. These people are incapable of blushing.
My first impression was bats flying out of her head, like “bat out of hell”. When I saw the long black veil it gave me underworld bride vibes. Wasn’t there an old movie called “death takes a holiday”, it’s giving me these vibes.
It looks like flames from hell.
What in the Spirit of Halloween is this???
Camilla’s hat is absolutely hideous and looks like a crown of thorns.
From the wings of dead birds on her head, to the poor one trapped behind that ghastly smirk, her visage is a thing of nightmares.
Those pics are just hilarious. She looks like The Bad Seed at her first communion but 70 years later
I hope Chicago’s Da Pope gets a kick out of it.
As a Catholic (but probs not in very good standing, lol!) and a big Pope Bob fan, all I can say about Cammy’s look is what in Harry Potter dementor hell is she wearing? FFS! Was she going with crow-feather tiara and wedding veil look? Poor Pope Bob must have struggled to not bust a gut when he saw her.
If she didn’t want to follow the Catholic tradition (not withstanding “when in Rome…” and all that), she could have just taken a page out of QE2’s playbook when she met with Pope Francis and wore a lovely lavender grey coat and matching hat and looked perfectly perfect, as she almost always did. No one came unglued that QE2 didn’t wear black. Cammy shows her lack of class at every turn. Lord have mercy, for reals!
People magazine said Camilla channeled queen Elizabeth. The late queen never wore such a garish hat.
Call me crazy, but I love this crazy headpiece thingie!
