In January 1995, after twenty–one years of marriage, Camilla and her husband decided to divorce. The previous year her mother, Rosalind, had died from osteoporosis, and her father later described this as a "difficult time for her". A joint statement was released by their lawyers on
11 January 1995,
stating their divorce was amicable and claiming it was due to different interests, which eventually led to separate lives.[46] The divorce was finalised in March 1995.[47]
