Queen Camilla: get used to it

Camilla Parker Bowles will be known as “Queen” rather than “Queen Consort,” according to sources speaking to the Mail on Sunday. The paper says the change in title will happen after King Charles’ Coronation in May.
Last week Camilla updated the name of her charity, the Duchess of Cornwall’s Reading Room, to the Queen’s Reading Room. The Court Circular could also soon reflect the change, the paper says. A well-placed source told the Mail: “There’s a view in the Palace that Queen Consort is cumbersome and it might be simpler for Camilla to be known just as the Queen when the time is right. The Reading Room was a sign of that. Her Majesty is the Queen after all. Prince Philip was Prince Consort officially, but he wasn’t known as Prince Consort. The Queen would of course still be Queen Consort so the Palace of course wouldn’t stop anyone calling Her Majesty that if they so chose.”
The speed of the title change is notable. The late Queen Elizabeth had said it was her ‘sincere wish” that Camilla be known as Queen Consort. This was seen as seismic in itself given Camilla’s onetime lack of popularity among the public due to her role in the breakdown in then-Prince Charles and Princess Diana’s marriage. Now she will simply be known as queen. A royal source told the Mail: “There’s a feeling that the time will come when it’s simpler all round to refer to Camilla simply as our Queen. Until then she will be referred to as Queen Consort.”
It is the most inevitable, and widely anticipated, change to come out of King Charles’ reign. But, lest we forget; it is the complete, diametric opposite of what the royals promised would happen when she married Charles.
Back then, Clarence House stated that Camilla would adopt the style of Princess Consort when Charles ascended the throne, a statement that mysteriously disappeared from Charles’ website in 2018.
In his memoir Spare, Prince Harry said his stepmother had left “bodies in the street” in her ascent within the royal family.

It is becoming quite obvious that should the Sussexes ever return to the UK, the King lock them in the Tower. Likewise, William upon his ascension to the throne, should lock his step mother in the Tower or, if she is infirm in mind and body, place her under the cloistered care of nuns.
A Bill of Attainder is also required on the remaining family members of both. Some tough choices ahead for the reigning Windsor dynasty. They need to brush up on the precedents handed down to them from the Plantagenets and Tudors.
