Buckingham Palace has revealed Queen Camilla will not buy any more real fur products.
Animal-rights group People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) received a letter from the Palace saying the Queen “will not procure any new fur garments”.
Peta told the BBC it would be “toasting Queen Camilla with a glass of the finest claret” following the decision.
Managing director Ingrid Newkirk said: "It's right and proper for the British monarchy to reflect British values by recognising that fur has no place in our society.”
The late Queen Elizabeth II also indicated she would acquire no new real fur products in 2019, but did still wear the items.
Buckingham Palace’s letter to Peta also did not say whether Camilla would stop wearing existing items.
An International Fur Federation spokesman rejected the criticism of real fur, adding that the royals "should not be placed under pressure from animal activists".
A spokesman said: "It is the right of everyone to decide what to wear.
"Many people still buy fur as they prefer to wear something that's natural and sustainable, unlike plastic-based fake fur.
"We hope the Royal Family consider the environment when they decide what to wear - but freedom of choice is the key issue."
Earlier this year, actor Stephen Fry called for an end to the use of real fur in the bearskin caps worn by the King's Guard, who are seen on duty outside Buckingham Palace.
The Ministry of Defence said the bear fur used was from "legal and licensed hunts".
