The next day Andrew Morton, the author of Diana, Her True Story, wrote a stinging rebuttal. He asserts that the Camilla affair goes back perhaps even to the time of the royal wedding. In the past, Morton has proved to be witheringly right. If the monarchy stands for anything, it is for moral standards...
