The Queen Consort will be crowned beside her husband King Charles. It will be a symbolic moment that will seal a relationship that has enthralled the nation.
Camilla’s journey from romantic involvement, to mistress and finally wife of the King has been played out over more than five decades. It will end with her formally becoming the nation’s Queen.
There had been speculation about what title she would hold when Charles acceded to the throne, but the Queen put the rumours to bed in February when she said it was her “sincere wish that, when that time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort”. Joe Little, of Majesty magazine, said: “It’s amazing what a difference 20 years makes, she’s gone from not quite obscurity to the second highest in the land, so it’s quite an upward trajectory in a relatively short period of time.”
