Camilla, wife of King Charles III, is crowned as Queen Camilla at Westminster Abbey in London, in a ceremony that signals a milestone in her journey from being reviled as the other woman in Charles’ first marriage to Princess Diana to a senior royal member widely accepted by the British public. The changing of titles from queen consort does not signify any practical difference in her role, as queen consorts do not formally share the sovereign’s powers.

The title of Queen Camilla has been a topic of controversy and speculation for many years due to the sensitive circumstances surrounding her relationship with Prince Charles and the late Princess Diana. However, the recent coronation of King Charles III has marked a significant milestone for Camilla, as she has officially been crowned alongside her husband and given the title of Queen. Despite this change, her role as queen consort remains the same, and she does not share the sovereign's powers formally. Nevertheless, the move signals the acceptance of Camilla as a respected senior member of the royal family, after decades of scrutiny and public backlash.
