But Charles encouraged her to stay; Wills was looking forward to an introduction. When the teenager arrived, the threesome spent half an hour sipping tea and soft drinks. After Wills left, Parker Bowles reportedly asked for a vodka tonic to calm her nerves. The encounter went smoothly though, and the young Prince has since sat down with Parker Bowles twice, once alone for tea and later for lunch with his father. If he is amenable, Wills' brother Harry...
