Summary

Motivated by love, Camilla and the then Prince Charles hatched an ambitious plan to win over the public: Operation Ritz. Camilla is no longer the other woman. At the coronation, she will be crowned as a queen. But getting the press, and most importantly Queen Elizabeth II, on her side was not easy.

In the final episode of the series, Kay Burley takes a deep dive into the PR campaign that set out to transform Camilla's reputation. The unconventional affair would, of course, become a marriage. Ultimately, it’s the love story of a new King and Queen.
