She told Vogue: “She’ll text me to say ‘I’ve done it in three’. And I say ‘Sorry, I’ve done it in two today.’ 

“It’s very satisfactory when it tells you how brilliant you are.”

Camila also told how her and husband Prince Charles try to make time for each in a tell-all chat for her birthday this month.

But she admitted balancing work with marriage can be difficult.

She said: “Sometimes it’s like ships passing in the night, but we always sit down together and have a cup of tea and discuss the day.

“When we go away, the nicest thing is that we actually sit and read our books in different corners of the same room. 

“It’s very relaxing because you know you don’t have to make conversation. You just sit and be together.”

And she told how negative public reaction to her relationship with the Prince of Wales was not easy, adding: “I was scrutinised for such a long time that you just have to find a way to live with it. 

“Nobody likes to be looked at all the time and, you know, criticised. But I think in the end, I sort of rise above it and get on with it. 

“You’ve got to get on with life.”

Camilla’s popularity has risen in the past decade and the Queen confirmed earlier this year she wants her to become Queen Consort when Charles becomes King.

And we told this month how she and her husband plan to host an episode of Strictly Come Dancing at Buckingham Palace.

Charles and superfan Camilla may even dance.

During her Vogue interview, she also spoke about her work with domestic violence charities to support women in abusive relationships.

And she revealed her and Charles always seek to find refuges wherever they visit in the world.

She said: “I think we all know somebody who it’s happened to.

“I was hearing it too often, from friends who knew friends, and I thought maybe I ought to look into it to see if there was somewhere for me to help.

“There’s been such a taboo. People can still love the people that abuse them, and feel such guilt and such shame that they think it’s their fault, so they bury it.

“It becomes a sort of terrible hidden secret.”
