Queen Camilla Holds Emotional Meeting With Domestic Abuse Survivors: "You're Virtually the Same Age as My Granddaughters"

Queen Camilla has been a longtime supporter of charities supporting domestic violence victims, and earlier this month, the groundbreaking new documentary, Her Majesty The Queen: Behind Closed Doors, shared some of these brave women's stories. Now, in unseen footage from the program, The Queen has revealed how she's been speaking to her own grandchildren about the issue.

During the documentary, Queen Camilla met with four women between the ages of 15 and 20 working with the charity SafeLives, of which Her Majesty serves as a royal patron.
