Camilla Parker Bowles: will the Duchess of Cornwall be known as Queen or Queen consort?
It is a much asked question today, but it seems as though it is one that was answered shortly after the death of Queen Elizabeth II.
In a statement issued by Buckingham Palace shortly after 6.30pm today, it was announced that the King and Queen Consort would be remaining at Balmoral this evening.“The King and The Queen Consort will remain at Balmoral this evening and will return to London tomorrow.” This statement confirmed that Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall, will be Queen Consort to King Charles III, and not Queen.
In fact, it was Queen Elizabeth II’s wish for the Duchess of Cornwall to become Queen Consort, with the Queen issuing a statement expressing this wish shortly before her Platinum Jubilee celebrations.The title is one that is given to the wife of a reigning King. As Queen Elizabeth II was on the throne for so long, it has been many years since the British monarchy had changes to titles of this magnitude.
This is different to a queen, as a queen reigns over her kingdom at the same level as a king would, like Queen Elizabeth II did.
