CAMILLA’S COMPANIONS
The Marchioness of Lansdowne
Fiona Petty-Fitzmaurice, 68, is married to Charles, 9th Marquess of Lansdowne and the couple are close friends of the King and Queen Consort. Known professionally as Fiona Shelburne, the interior designer specialises in historic English country houses and has lovingly renovated her own home, Bowood House in Wiltshire, which has been in her husband’s family since 1754.
Bowood is close to Camilla’s private home, Ray Mill House, which means the women can spend time together when Her Majesty has time off. And they have plenty in common. Like her royal friend, Fiona loves dogs and enjoys taking her own on walks with Camilla and her Jack Russell rescue pets, Beth and Bluebell.
