Barely a year had passed since Diana's tragic death before Charles and Camilla announced their public date at Spencer House in Nov. 1998 — shocking their fellow blue bloods! "It's outrageous," fumed Lord Montague, the Viscount Mandeville. "They're flaunting their affair and turning Diana's beloved home into their own personal love nest. It is nothing less than a public slap in the face to the memory of our precious Princess."

Diana, said insiders, would have been horrified and appalled to learn the "other woman" was partying with Charles at the Spencer Family estate that had been in her family for generations. The magnificent mansion was built in 1756 and recognized as one of the most splendid private palaces ever built in London.

Charles caused the social uproar when announcing that Camilla would be his companion when invited to a Chopin recital there. The invitation seemed even more inflammatory on the heels of an astounding reversal by officials from the Church of England — having decreed that divorcees could marry within the faith. That cleared the way for Charles to wed Camilla in a 2005 royal ceremony.

The couple had made their first public appearance just weeks before, as Camilla boldly threw a 50th birthday party for her prince at Highgrove — where Camilla's presence had broken Diana's heart during her marriage to Charles. "It really is a tragedy," said Lord Montague at the time. "The princess's poor sons are desperate to protect her memory — and they have to endure this pain from their own father!"
