Buckingham Palace has decided to call Camilla a ‘queen’ rather than a ‘queen consort’. According to sources close to Charles III, this will take place after the coronation, scheduled for May 6, and will thus complete the transformation of the current king’s wife in the eyes of the subjects.When Camilla married the Prince of Wales, Charles, in 2005, it was thought she would not be called ‘Queen’ even when he ascended the throne. Among the reasons given was his bad reputation, based on an extramarital affair with the prince while both were in legal relationships with other people. “There were three of us in this marriage, a little more than usual,” Princess Diana said in a now famous interview with Panorama.But over time, Camilla managed to win the hearts of the British, and when in February last year, Elizabeth II called her daughter-in-law to be called “Queen Consort”, it became the expression of his greatest support to those around him. her. But today, Buckingham Palace has decided to go even further. “There is a view in the palace that the wording ‘queen consort’ is too heavy handed and it would be simpler to just call Camilla ‘queen’ when the time comes,” an informed source told reporters.
