She’s got the title and there’s no way anyone is taking it away from her. Camilla Parker Bowles has said that she is “very honored and very touched” by Queen Elizabeth for giving her the title as the future ‘Queen Consort’ once her husband Prince Charles becomes king of England. Here’s what you need to know.
This has been the first time that the first time the 74-year-old had spoken publicly about the honor since it was announced at the weekend as the Queen marked 70 years since she acceded to the throne. She made her comments as she marked the opening of a west London community kitchen.
Camilla Parker Bowles ‘Honored’ To Be Future Queen Consort
During the tour, Camilla was asked by a visitor, who gave his name as DJ, how she felt about the title. The duchess replied: “I feel very honored – very honored and very touched.”
In a message to mark Accession Day, as Queen Elizabeth becomes the first British Monarch to reign for 70 years, the Queen looked ahead to a time when she is no longer here – and made her wishes clear about the future of the Monarchy.
She called it her “sincere wish” for Camilla to be known as Queen Consort and urged the country to give Charles and Camilla the same support she has enjoyed.
The Queen, who is at Sandringham, wrote: “When, in the fullness of time, my son Charles becomes King, I know you will give him and his wife Camilla the same support that you have given me; and it is my sincere wish that, when that time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort as she continues her own loyal service.”
Back in 2021, there was some speculation that there were members of the royal family that didn’t want Camilla to become Queen. According to Britain’s Express.co.uk, there is someone behind the scenes at Buckingham Palace who doesn’t think Camilla is fit to be Queen.
Royal author and expert Penny Junor suggested that there is some reservation behind making Camilla Queen even though her husband Prince Charles stands to be the next King of England. Instead of being called a Queen, some people think that Camilla should be a Princess Consort instead.
