Prince Charles and Camilla Parker Bowles allegedly want to preserve their youth.
In its July 4 issue, National Enquirer claimed that the couple has been allotting a small chunk of their fortune on Botox and other facial treatments.
A source claimed that Prince Charles and Camilla are worried about looking old especially now that they are in their 70s. So, why they still can, they are already doing everything to make sure that they won’t age quickly.
“They’ve spent a small fortune. They’re doing all they can to look younger and less worn out. Camilla, especially, has been a regular at the surgeon’s office. His and her love of gin, wine, and whiskey are no secret. But they’ve been making efforts to ease up on the booze and focus on their appearances for coronation day,” the source said.
The insider also claimed to know all the products that Prince Charles uses on his face. And this allegedly includes facial creams that help smoothen his age spots.
Camilla, on the other hand, has allegedly become more adventurous in her efforts to look younger.
“Everyone’s noticed how much smoother her skin looks. She had a facelift a while back and has been getting other subtle cosmetic perks as well,” the source said.
To make their claims more convincing, the tabloid spoke to a Beverly Hills-based plastic surgeon named Dr. Robert Cohen. He believes that the Duchess of Cornwall had a mid-facelift.
“The beauty of a facelift is that it goes underneath the skin and you pull it up to get the skin more refreshed. It was subtle for her age. It appears they didn’t pull it way back. My guess is she’s had a combined procedure – facelift with perhaps some work on the lips and the eyes. She may have had a laser treatment for her overall skin tone. It also appears she may have had an upper and lower blepharoplasty to remove excess skin around her lower eyes and eyelids,” Cohen said.
However, it is important to note that the tabloid and surgeon’s claims are just based on speculations. Prince Charles and Camilla have never said anything about getting Botox and other facial treatments.
While this may be possible, it is important to remember that the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall would never confess to getting this done since this is a very private matter.
