At the coronation ceremony of King Charles III of England, which will be held on the 6th of next month (local time), Queen Consort (76) will be officially called ‘Queen’ for the first time.
The British BBC reported on the 5th that ‘Queen Camilla’ was written on the coronation invitation released by the British royal family on the 4th. Camilla became the Duchess of Cornwall in 2005 when she married her then Crown Prince Charles III. In September of last year she was elevated to ‘Queen Consort’ after her death by Queen Elizabeth II. However, the BBC explained that ‘Queen Consort’ has a stronger meaning to her current royal consort.
With this, Queen Camilla became queen in name and reality and settled the title controversy that lasted 18 years of marriage. The royal family tried to grant Camilla the title of Princess of Wales shortly after her marriage, but this was thwarted by controversy that he had an affair with her during her first marriage to King Charles. King Charles’ first wife, the late Diana Spencer, was called the Crown Princess.
Afterwards, the controversy over the title came to an end when Queen Elizabeth II, who celebrated the 70th anniversary of her accession in June of last year, announced that she hoped that Camilla would be called queen if she inherited the throne as Prince Charles.
Meanwhile, the coronation invitation design symbolizes ‘spring and rebirth’ in commemoration of the new king’s reign, the British royal family said. It was made of recycled paper according to the will of Charles III, who was interested in environmental issues, and contains many British symbols such as ivy and hawthorn. The coronation will be held at Westminster Abbey in London. Prince George, second in line to the throne, takes the page of honor. It is unknown whether Prince Harry and his wife, who are experiencing a feud with the royal family, will attend. The royal family announced last month that they had invited Prince Harry and his wife to the coronation ceremony.
