Queen Camilla shares assault experience publicly

Britain's Queen Camilla on Wednesday spoke publicly for the first time about her personal experience of indecent assault, saying that speaking out was one way she could use her royal platform to shine a light on the epidemic of violence against women.Camilla, who has made fighting domestic abuse one of her signature causes, recalled fending off a man who attacked her on a train in the 1960s when she was a teenager.
“I was reading my book, and you know, this boy, man, attacked me, and I did fight back,” Camilla told the BBC. “And I remember getting off the train and my mother looking at me and saying, 'Why is your hair standing on end?' and Why is a button missing from your coat?'” While the attack made her “furious”, Camilla said, she kept it quiet for many years until she heard other women recount their own stories.
