Queen Camilla and Sarah Jessica Parker. What looked like a scene from Sex and the City or And Just Like That… or perhaps a photo made with AI. And just like that, the British royal, in New York on the third day of her state visit to the United States, actually met the actor at the New York Public Library at an event organized by Her Majesty’s sponsored charity, The Queen’s Reading Room.
Queen Camilla is giving her all in these American days. If the goal was to smooth relations between the United States and the United Kingdom, the diplomatic mission of King Charles and consort seems to have succeeded, at least on the level of communication. Upon arrival in Washington, DC, the royal thoughtfully sported a Cartier brooch depicting the flags of the two countries together, while on the second day, she brought out jewelry of extraordinary historical and sentimental value, including an amethyst parure that belonged to Queen Victoria’s mother.
For the various appointments on her schedule in New York, Camilla wore a navy blue ensemble designed by Fiona Clare that she embellished with another little-known heirloom from the Queen Mother’s treasure chest. It is an 18-karat white gold brooch studded with diamonds with rubies and sapphires depicting Britannia, the warrior goddess and national symbol of Britain since Roman times.
