Following the passing of Queen Elizabeth II, Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall has taken on the role of Queen Consort while her husband, King Charles III, is the new monarch
Camilla has now taken on the role of Queen Consort following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II.
The title is given to the wife of a reigning king, with the last royal to take on the title of Queen Consort being the Queen Mother, whose husband was King George VI. However, on the eve of the 70th anniversary of Her Majesty's accession in February, she released a statement where she said it was her "sincere wish" for Camilla to take on the title when Charles takes to the throne.
