The legal letter Rose Hanbury’s team sent Stephen Colbert might just be a slap on the wrist. Attorney Neama Rahmani shared with Us Weekly that the talk show host didn’t accuse Hanbury and Prince William of anything damaging, but was merely repeating the rumors that were already out there. “We’re not saying that it’s absolutely true that Rose had an affair with William or putting out a definitive statement because of the nuanced nature of what Colbert said,” Rahmani stated, adding that Hanbury doesn’t have a “good defamation case.”
Regardless of the letter’s outcome, Hanbury, who was given the nickname “Camilla 2.0” by the internet, is reportedly not happy about having her reputation sullied. “I know people who know the Marchioness of Cholmondeley very, very well, and she absolutely was not having an affair with the Prince of Wales,” royal expert Nick Bullen also told Us Weekly. He added, “Even when those rumors broke a few years ago, she was very upset by them then. She’s still very upset by them now.”
