The British monarch’s wife has been officially identified as Queen Camilla for the first time, and Buckingham Palace used the title in invitations to King Charles III’s coronation, scheduled for May 6.
Camilla, hitherto described as the queen consort, is identified as queen in ornate, medieval-style invitations that will be sent to more than 2,000 guests and were unveiled on Tuesday.
The new title is another step in the transformation of a woman who was once derided as a homewrecker for her role in ending Charles’ marriage to the late Princess Diana.
Charles and Camilla met before the future king married Diana in 1981 and continued their relationship through the royal wedding, prompting disdain for Camilla among Diana’s many fans who supported the princess when her marriage fell apart. .
Since marrying Carlos in a civil ceremony in 2005, Camilla has been winning over the British public.
The late Queen Elizabeth II earlier this year issued a statement saying she hoped Camilla would be treated as a “queen consort” when Charles became king.
