Camilla, Duchess of Cornwallis celebrating her 71st birthday with picturesque views — and carrot cake!
Camilla and her husband,Prince Charles, who are on their annual royal tour of Cornwall, landed in the Scilly Isles on Tuesday, where they were greeted with a bouquet of flowers and a cake that read, “Happy Birthday Ma’am!” Camilla blew out the candles, and she and Charles looked delighted to share a piece (or two!) of the carrot cake.
“Ma’am” is the proper way to address female members of the royal family, according to theroyal family’s official website. (The first address is conventionally “Your Royal Highness” and subsequently “Ma’am”.)
