Camilla to be Queen as Prince Charles will insist she receives title, royal expert claims

The second wife of Charles, Camilla is due to be known as Princess Consort when he ascends to the throne. The title was decided out of sensitivity to Diana when it was announced Camilla would use the Duchess of Cornwall as her official title. But royal commentator Victoria Arbiter suspects Charles will insist “his wife adopt her rightful title”.

Writing on 9honey Ms Arbiter said: “Out of sensitivity to Diana, it was announced Camilla would use The Duchess of Cornwall as her official title.

“Then, come Charles’ accession, she would be known as Princess Consort as opposed to Queen Consort.

“‘Princess Consort’ remains the official Palace line, but when the day finally dawns I suspect Charles will insist his wife adopt her rightful title.

“To accept anything less would be to admit fault and, this many years on, it strikes me as unnecessarily cautious for Camilla to be Queen Consort in all but name.”

Prince Charles is currently the longest-reigning heir to the throne and has so far waited more than 70 years.

The second longest royal to beat is Edward VII who waited 59 years before taking the throne after Queen Victoria.

Ms Arbiter added: “The Royal Family is acutely aware of the mood of the nation, but the tide finally seems to be turning in terms of the public’s perception of Camilla.

“Thanks in part to her work on behalf of victims of sexual abuse, osteoporosis, child literacy, animal welfare, poverty and homelessness, a broad cross section of society has warmed to the Duchess, and she remains the most popular royal among the British press pack.

“Camilla’s proven she brings out the very best in Charles and she will be a valuable support system when he eventually assumes the role for which he is destined.”

Ms Arbiter’s claim comes after Camilla stuns at Royal Ascot 2019.

The Duchess wore a blue outfit alongside the Queen on day two of the races.

Royal fans were surprised when the women of the Royal Family all wore blue for the first day of the event.
