Just as Charles and Camilla's first hubby were pals, Diana and Camilla had also been friends. According to royal biographer Penny Junor (via PopSugar), Andrew and Camilla often hosted Charles and Diana at their country home in Wiltshire. Charles and Diana were newly dating when Camilla and Diana first started becoming friends, and, like the prince and the future princess' relationship, the women's friendship continued to progress. Once Charles and Diana became engaged, Camilla even served as a friendly face at royal events, and Diana helped Camilla care for her then-young children, Tom and Laura.
Before Diana and Charles would wed, Diana moved into Clarence House and reportedly received a note from Camilla inviting her to have lunch. At the time, Diana was said to have enjoyed Camilla's company and had fun gossiping with her over their meal. Later, after Diana discovered her husband's affair, she reportedly came to believe Camilla was actually fishing for details about Charles' schedule so she could plan a time to see him after the big day, according to Diana: Her True Story (via PopSugar).
