Queen Elizabeth officially addressed the future of the monarchy while marking the 70th anniversary of her reign.
in her statement, “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 times comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort as she continues her own loyal service.” Her Majesty is the only person who can define such royal titles.
Camilla and Charles married in 2005, and the announcement is something of a turning point given the couple’s sensitive history with the royal family. Until now, it was believed Camilla would hold a “Princess Consort” title when Charles became King,out of respect for the late Princess Diana, who once would have held the Queen title. Diana, the Princess of Wales, was killed in a car crash in 1997; Charles and Camilla were romantically involved during his marriage to Diana.
With this weekend’s announcement, however, it’s clear that the Queen is ready for the public to accept Camilla as a central figure in the royal family, despite years of scrutiny from the press and citizens alike. Many have blamed Camilla for the breakdown of Charles and Diana’s marriage; in an infamous 1995 interview,Camilla has worked hard to increase her favorability since becoming a royal.
