It has been reported that Camilla first approached Prince Charles with the statement "Your great-grandfather and my great-grandmother had a child so why don't we?" Is this correct and just how are they related?

i dont know if that statement is true its below as "suggested", but yes they are related;>>
Another talking point surrounding the Charles and Camilla nuptials has been revealed - they are related! Leading genealogists at Ancestry.co.uk have discovered that the heir to the throne and his wife-to-be are cousins. According to the family history experts who have been researching the couple's family trees, Prince Charles and Camilla are ninth cousins once removed.
Research into the couple's family history by Ancestry.co.uk revealed that Prince Charles and Camilla are both descendents of Henry Cavendish, 2nd Duke of Newcastle. Prince Charles' family history can be traced back to the Duke's elder daughter Margaret Cavendish, while Camilla's family tree leads to the Duke's younger daughter Catherine Cavendish.
Ironically in another bizarre twist it is suggested that when Prince Charles met Camilla Parker-Bowles in the early seventies, she said to the prince, "My great-grandmother and your great-great grandfather were lovers, so how about it?" It is believed that Camilla's grandmother, Sonia Keppel, was the illegitimate daughter of King Edward VII. If this is true then she and Charles would be half second cousins once removed. The half denotes that Charles and Camilla are descended from different partners of Edward VII (Charles from Edward's wife and Camilla from Edward's alleged mistress, Alice Edmonstone).

Camilla has honestly stated she is not going to take the identify of queen, despite the fact that she is undoubtedly entitled to it. So I'll reply this as though she's going to honestly be Queen Camilla while Charles is King. Camilla is a Queen Consort. She is queen considering the fact that her husband is king. It is a courtesy identify. Elizabeth II, alternatively, is a Queen Regnant. She inherited the identify, simply as Charles will inherit from her. Elizabeth II is the monarch. Charles would be the monarch. William can be monarch after Charles. When Charles dies, Camilla will formally be a Dowager Queen and would nonetheless be referred to as Queen Camilla. (Elizabeth's mother used to be the equal approach) But Kate would be the new Queen Consort as quickly as William is King, regardless whether or not or now not Camilla is alive. There used to be a time that there have been 3 residing queens within the twentieth century: Queen Regnant Elizabeth II, her mom Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mum), and her grandmother Queen Mary.

Camilla said that the great grandparents were lovers, not that they had a child together and she suggested they carry on that tradition (which I guess they did considering Charles lives in her knickers as he put it).

EW. I have never heard that. But I would not be surprised if it was. The thought of those two having a child makes me want to vomit.
