Elizabeth, 91, was shocked — along with other aristocrats — as scheming Camilla arrived at a Buckingham Palace state dinner for Spain’s King Felipe (left) and Queen Letizia wearing the Greville Tiara, a diamond-encrusted headpiece that belonged to King George VI’s wife!

“It was a jaw-dropping moment,” says a palace insider. “At first Her Majesty couldn’t believe her eyes. She thought the Greville Tiara, which belonged to her mother, Elizabeth, was safely in her royal apartments.

“She called an aide to her side and confirmed Camilla was, indeed, wearing the Greville. The queen was beside herself with fury, but bottled up her anger in order to be a gracious host to the Spanish visitors.”

“She’s been hitting the gin hard lately,” says the insider. “Servants say she guzzled four large, cut-glass tumblers of gin before sneaking off and filching the tiara. The queen was livid.”
