Robert Jobson Quotations

She feared that if he married a divorcee it would throw the monarchy into crisis again, and I think that is why he never did so during her lifetime.

Her parents both were very conscious that they wanted her to have as easy a time of it as possible, because they knew what was going to happen in her adulthood.

I think it's always been an ominous responsibility to be thinking as a child that you'll one day be sovereign of Great Britain,

I think as she gets older ... she will hand more and more responsibility towards Prince Charles and her other children. But she will continue to reign as monarch until she dies.

I think Prince Charles made it quite clear that he felt that he was brought up in an unemotional dysfunction state,

The Queen Mother always urged Charles to put duty first,

There's no question that it's a difficult job to do, ... But I think that from the moment she made that decision that she was going to serve the country and the people, that is all that she really wanted to do for the rest of her entire life.

As a result, at a meeting of the Duke of Edinburgh, Prince Charles, Prince William and the Queen they basically decided that the evidence had gone too far and they interjected in the case,

The bottom line is it seems that Buckingham Palace and the queen have stopped the trial which is going to cause all kinds of constitutional implications in Britain.

There'll be constant discussions when Prince Charles flies back from Oman, where he has been on an official visit, and I think they are going to have to come out with a better strategy than the one with which they came out already.

It's an invitation from one head of state to another. Of course this means her majesty's ministers (in the shape of Prime Minister Tony Blair) and the Foreign Office would have been consulted.

After this sort of start to the year things can only get better.

I personally think that was a mistake. If it was such a serious allegation -- which it is -- they should have simply waited to see if the newspaper would actually print those allegations and then take legal action.

Camilla is well and truly in the fold. She has taken a leading position in the monarchy and is effectively going to be queen one day.

I don't think the Prince of Wales will go to court,

He actually believes that she was murdered. The reality is, of course, also, that his car, his driver, were involved in this crash therefore there will be people that believe that he is ultimately responsible not only for the death of his own son, but for the death of the princess.
