Queen or Consort does it matter?

I don't blame her Merlotgran , I wish the title of P and P of W would stop once Charles becomes king , let it be buried in history with the rightful PofW

Anniebach I think Camilla would have gouged her own eyes out with a rusty fork and then eaten them rather than be saddled with the POW title.

The wife of a crowned King cannot be a queen , she has to be queen consort , to be a queen she would have to be crowned queen

I disagree with Charles stepping down to make way for youth , he has served a hell of a long apprenticeship and the title is his by right

If a second wife of a Mr X is Mrs X by law then same goes for Camilla who is entitled to be called Princess of Wales and should be , all this avoiding names because of a divorce is wrong surely

Is Albert a useful analogy? Because kings were men they were seen as superior to queens, so he had to be Prince Consort so as to keep the K word out of his title. Queen Consort makes no sense at all, and Princess Consort makes even less. Let her be Queen.

Though frankly, my dears, I don't give a damn.

I don't think William has any intention of becoming king until he absolutely has to.

I agree Wilma. Don't think it'll happen though. It would be nice to let William and Kate have some time to themselves before the big job kicks in.

I think Queen Consort for no other reason than it sounds right.

It will never happen, but I would rather Charles did not become king and that William and Kate become kind and queen consort. Charles is too old and his time has passed and the Royal family would benefit from keeping the freshness of William and Kate going.

I could understand some people objecting if the Queen had died shortly after Charles and Camilla's marriage but Camilla has served her apprenticeship and should have the title she deserves.

Hhhhhmmmm. Not sure. There's still a lot of prejudice about. I thought they'd agreed when they married that she wouldn't be Queen. Don't know why I think that though.

Queen Consort - she is eminently suitable for the title when Charles become king.

She will be wife of the King as was Elizabeth, Mary, Alexander and all who went before , what I have read of these women Camilla is equal to them and should be given equal respect and title

Definitely Queen.

Queen

She has been so dignified and loyal, nothing but Queen will do.

She should be queen consort as was the QM, and so should be queen Camilla

Of course it isn't. Except to long-standing Camilla-haters.

No.

Victoria's husband Albert was "only" a consort, but he managed to exert quite a bit of unofficial influence. Other royal spouses have kept well clear of decisions, whether they were labelled queens or not. I am not sure the name is very important.

No.
