Prince Charles Jokes About ‘Bossy’ Duchess Camilla During Rwanda Royal Tour

Prince Charles Jokes About 'Bossy' Duchess Camilla During Rwanda Royal Tour

Prince Charles has joked
about the “bossy” Duchess of Cornwall after the pair attended a
fashion show in the Rwandan capital Kigali.

Camilla was seen asking
Charles to hurry up as she waited to pose for a photograph with well-wishers.
Laughing and gesturing at his wife, Charles reportedly said: “She’s very
bossy.”

Charles, 73, and Camilla, 74,
were guests of honor at the event that showcased up-and-coming and established
fashion talent in the country and other Commonwealth nations.

They met models and 16
designers from seven Commonwealth countries who were displaying their clothing
as part of Rwanda Fashion Week.

The royal pair then sat and
watched a brief show featuring designers and models from African countries.
Prince Charles was particularly impressed by the Cross-African designs of
Nigerian company Dye Lab.

Derin Sanwo, the company’s
operations manager, spent several minutes talking to the Prince. She said
afterwards: “He said they were beautiful pieces.”

Charles and Camilla
began the first-ever royal visit to Rwanda on Wednesday.

They are the first members
of the Queen’s family to visit Rwanda, one of the few countries not
visited by the monarch during her 70-year reign.

The future King and Queen
Consort met President Paul Kagame and First Lady Jeanette Kagame and learned
about how Rwanda has recovered from the 1994 Genocide against the Tutsi, in
which up to 800,000 people were killed in a period of just 100 days.

The Prince and Duchess had the
“opportunity to reflect on the strength and resilience of the Rwandan
people, as well as their commitment to reconciliation and optimism following
the Genocide.”

The royal couple will end
their trip by hosting a dinner on behalf of the Queen for the Commonwealth
Heads of Government after attending the Opening Ceremony and other meetings
earlier in the day. Charles was chosen as the organization’s next leader at the
last gathering in London in 2018.
