Queen Elizabeth II of the United Kingdom has stated that once her son Prince Charles takes over the kingdom, she would prefer Duchess of Cornwall Camilla to be named “Queen Consort,” elevating her status within the royal family.
The 95-year-old made the stunning statement on Saturday, February 5, 2022, a day before her Platinum Jubilee.
When referring to her beloved Prince Philip, who died in April of last year, Queen Elizabeth emphasized the point for Camilla, saying that she was “fortunate that in Prince Philip I had a partner willing to carry out the duty of consort and unselfishly make the sacrifices that go with it.”
Prince Charles, Queen Elizabeth’s first born son, married Camilla in 2005. At the time, she was to be known as “Princess Consort.
” This is despite the fact that she had a right to being named Queen.
Camilla has become more popular over the years, but it wasn’t always the case – many disliked her after it emerged that she was having an affair with Prince Charles, who was married to the beloved Princess Diana.
“And 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.”
Queen Elizabeth II
“And so as I look forward to continuing to serve you with all my heart, I hope this Jubilee will bring together families and friends, neighbours and communities – after some difficult times for so many of us – in order to enjoy the celebrations and to reflect on the positive developments in our day-to-day lives that have so happily coincided with my reign.”
