Now that she has been crowned alongside her husband, King Charles III’s wife is officially known as Queen Camilla.
While it sounds more official than “queen consort,” the changing of titles does not signify any practical difference in the role of the 75-year-old royal.
Queen consorts do not formally share the sovereign’s powers, and dropping the “consort” part of the title does not change that. Nonetheless, the change marks a milestone in Camilla’s decadeslong road to rehabilitating her image — from someone once reviled as the other woman in Charles’ first marriage to Princess Diana, to a senior royal member largely accepted by the British public.
The question of what title Camilla would hold when Charles became king has long been a subject of contention, due to sensitivity about her status as Charles’ second wife.
Camilla and her first husband, Andrew Parker-Bowles, divorced in 1995, shortly after Charles gave an explosive television interview admitting his relationship with Camilla. Charles and Diana divorced the following year. In 1997, there was a global outpouring of grief when Diana died in a car crash. Camilla and Charles waited until 2005 to marry in a low-key private civil ceremony.

How about Royal Side-chick?!
Congrats to her. She really moved up in this world just by having sex with another person.
So if Chuckie III dies before Camilla, Willie will become King and Cammie will become Queen Mutha?

A likely scenario simply because women tend to live longer than men.
My guess. Queen Camilla and Queen Catherine.
Be serious. She's hardly some lowlife prostitute. They are and have been in love with each other for a very long time.
Barbara Villiers, Countess of Castlemaine, was a mistress of Charles II. She was nicknamed “The Royal Whore”.
Just saying’.
She had a solid career and lots of money and her pick of gentlemen before Donald Trump came along.
Having an affair with a married man is a low life.
“Biggest success of a side-chick ever!”
Jill Biden did pretty well, too, when it comes to side chicks.

Evil Step-Mother Queen?
Kate better watch out... I think I've seen this cartoon before...

There can only be a king or queen on the throne.
Anybody else is a consort.
No way. Dowiger Queen.
” They are and have been in love with each other for a very long time.”
Right, so much so that they each married another person. They both are persons of low moral character.
If King Charles dies, she becomes the King’s mother, as William takes over the throne.
She does not become queen.

Why didn’t the inept Charley do the right thing and get himself a cottage on the back 40 acres of the Palace and hand the crown over to William and Kate, who both seem 40 IQ points higher and have personalities fit for the role?
Let’s not forget Hillary Clinton and Kamala Harris. Many women climbed the ladder by having sex with the right men. They must be proud of Camilla.
