Things are still difficult between William, Harry and Camilla to this day.
Now it has become known that this also has an impact on the relationship between William's children and Camilla.
You can't call her "grandma".
London – Prince William (40) and his wife, Duchess Kate (40), now have three children: Louis (4), Charlotte (7) and George (9).
They have two grandpas, King Charles III.
and Kate's father, Michael Francis Middleton.
It gets a little more complicated with the grandmothers: Kate's mother Carole Elizabeth Middleton often visits her – but what about Queen Camilla?
The royal parents have clear rules for their offspring.
"Two grandfathers, but only one grandmother": Camilla can't be called grandma
Actually, Princess Diana, the mother of Prince William and Prince Harry, would be the biological grandmother of Louis, Charlotte and George.
However, Lady Di died in 1997. In 2005 Charles married his Camilla, about whom Diana said in her legendary interview: "We had a marriage as a threesome".
Charles and Camilla were already a couple in 1970, according to a biography of Charles written by Sally Bedell Smith, he began an affair with Camilla in 1986.

A complicated family relationship, particularly for Charles' children William and Harry.
To this day, Prince William insists that his children do not call Camilla "step-grandmother" or even "grandma".
In the book Camilla: From Outcast to Queen Consort, Angela Levin wrote:
"William has made it clear, however, that Camilla is his father's wife, but not a step-grandmother to his children, and that Prince George, his sister Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis has two grandfathers but only one grandmother".
William seems to 'accept' Camilla - Harry 'can't stand Camilla'
Despite the clear hierarchy, Amanda MacManus reported in the book that the Queen Consort was a "very warm woman": "She has her own children and grandchildren, so she wouldn't try to take anyone else's children.
Having them around is more of a bonus.
She loves children and the more the merrier.”
But what about Williams and Harry?
Author Tina Brown had previously speculated: "William has accepted Camilla in terms of what she means to his father.
He dealt with it as an adult.
Harry, on the other hand, can't stand Camilla."
Princess Diana's Revenge Dress
It was the evening when today's King Charles finally admitted in a TV interview what the whole country was already suspecting: he was unfaithful to his ex-wife Diana - with Camilla.
Princess Diana had been separated for two years at the time, but was still angry.
She chose fashion as the language of her emotions: she appeared in a black off-the-shoulder dress made of tight-fitting silk at a fundraising dinner on the same evening that the interview was broadcast.
Reports about the sexy dress dominated the media the next day, and the name “Revenge Dress” was born.
The term is still used today when prominent women present themselves in a sensational look after a public relationship breakup and stands for a self-determined new beginning.
