WHY did Camilla Parker-Bowles’ husband Andrew have affairs outside their marriage? Because Camilla was not attractive?
Was it because she always was having an affair with Prince Charles throughout her marriage to Andrew?

No it was because Camilla wasn't a bloke.

No. Andrew Parker Bowles was carrying on affairs before meeting Camilla, and while still dating Camilla. He had the reputation of being a womanizer, a philanderer. Why do men cheat? It is because they feel that they can. Andrew Parker Bowles was the first person in the marriage to stray. Camilla only began her affair with Charles in the late nineteen-seventies, having endured her husband's philandering for years and years.
There are many credible biographers who've covered this subject... they all agree that Camilla had set her sites on Andrew Parker Bowles since she made her debut in society. She was aware of his reputation but she loved him.
Credible biographers don't mention that Camilla wanted to marry Charles, though. She had already met Andrew Parker Bowles and set her cap on marrying him. She dated Andrew Parker Bowles for several years. Parker Bowles also saw other women.She met Charles and dated him while taking a break from Andrew, but eventually went on to marry Parker Bowles, according to her wishes.

How should we know? Some men are just like that. Her attractiveness has nothing to do with it, since Charles preferred her to Diana, for example.

He was a philanderer. That's what they do.

Allegedly he was a serial adulterer who was probably at it with many woman. For Camilla, the final straw, apparently, was when he started bedding her close friends (some friends eh!). As far as I'm aware, and according to most info around, she didn't start her close relationship with Charles until his (Charles') marriage to Diana was over which happened long before they were finally divorced - at the say-so of HM.
If you like to think what Andrew PB was up to had to do with how Camilla looked etc., so be it - there's not much to be said to convince you otherwise.
As far as I've read, Camilla realised she was never going to able to marry Charles, and moved on. Andrew PB was a good catch after all although it was a pity he couldn't stay faithful to her!
Sometimes even people who are non-royal don't realise until after they are married, that they have married the wrong person. As for not being attractive, Camilla was quite a good looking gal when young. She is in her 70s now after all. Would that we all kept our looks to the end of our lives.

No, she was not having an affair all through her marriage, andrew married her because he loved her, she was quite attractive when she was young.

Yes, all the things you mention and more. She apparently smokes 80 ciggies a day and kissing her must be like snogging a stove pipe.
