The Weakest Link's Anne Robinson 'secretly' dating Queen Camilla's ex since last year
Anne Robinson has reportedly been dating Andrew Parker-Bowles for a year.
The Weakest Link legend Anne Robinson has reportedly been secretly dating Andrew Parker-Bowles for the past year.
The 79-year-old TV legend and Queen Camilla's ex, 83, have enjoyed keeping their relationship a secret for as long as possible, according to a friend of the pair.
Meanwhile Queen Camilla is believed to support the pair's relationship, The Sun reports. Both Anne and Andrew have been married twice before.
The inside source told the publication: “Annie proudly tells everyone she is the daughter of a market trader chicken-seller and is as far removed from a toff as could be — frankly it beats any storyline The Crown could possibly come up with."
Anne Robinson was married to her first husband Charles Wilson between 1968 and 1973. She then spent seven years as a divorcee before her second marriage to John Penrose, which lasted 27 years between 1980 and 2007. Meanwhile Andrew Parker-Bowles was married to Rosemary Dickinson between 1996 and 2010, when she tragically died of cancer.

The pair were reportedly set up by a "mutual friend", and they are believed to have enjoyed their first date at a dinner party where David Cameron was also in attendance.
It was previously claimed that Queen Camilla reportedly felt "crushed and unwanted" in her marriage to Andrew Parker Bowles, which led to her relationship with her now-husband King Charles. The pair were married between 1973 and 1995.
Petronella Wyatt, daughter of the late Lord Wyatt, has claimed although Camilla was “passionately in love with the raffish Parker Bowles”, his existence was “pivotal” to the emerging romantic relationship between Charles and Camilla.
Calling Andrew Parker Bowles the “lothario of London” for several decades from the late 1960s, Ms Wyatt claimed: “Contrary to the public perception of Camilla as a marriage-wrecker, it was her husband who began having affairs.”
Alleged infidelities “left [Camilla] feeling crushed and unwanted”, according to Ms Wyatt.
She claimed in the Daily Mail that Camilla then “sought solace in a man who needed her more”, or Prince Charles, ahead of his marriage to Diana.
