Britain's Duchess of Cornwall made a toddler cry during a meet-and-greet session yesterday (19.11.09).

Camilla - who is married to Prince Charles visited a Barnardo's family centre and accidentally bumped into three-year-old Jerrod as she bent to hug a girl and squashed the little boy as he tried to squeeze past her.

Stuck between Camilla and a wooden cut-out archway at the Freeman Family Centre in Harlesden, North-West London, Jerrod was seen clutching his head before bursting into tears yesterday.

She was remarkably warm and seemed taken by the children.One little girl poked her tongue out at the Duchess, so she said, 'I can do that too' and stuck out her tongue right back.

But despite the mishap, staff were impressed with royal, who is president of children's charity Barnardo's.

Nursery manager June Nyarko said: "She was remarkably warm and seemed taken by the children.

"One little girl poked her tongue out at the Duchess, so she said, 'I can do that too' and stuck out her tongue right back."

Later in the day, Camilla, 62, was left red-faced again when she tugged a rope to turn on Christmas lights at Burlington Arcade, central London - and pulled off the tassel.
