    Did you miss the April 2023 edition of Glamour Magazine, and the helpful advice of royal expert Victoria Howard?

    Here is a reminder:

    “The reason that a male consort is a 'Prince Consort' and not 'King Consort' is due to the development of the English language: 'Queen' originally did not mean 'a female King' but actually 'the wife of a King', which puts her deliberately lower than him in the language (and therefore social) hierarchy. Today we differentiate them as Queen Consort (wife of a ruler) or Queen Regnant (ruler),” she says.

    “So if a male consort were called 'King Consort', not only would this be a bit of a contradiction, it could be considered that he outranks her! Therefore Prince Consort was used for both Prince Albert and Prince Philip to position them firmly below their higher-status wives.”

    As for why Camilla is set to be ‘Queen Camilla’ rather than ‘Queen Consort Camilla’ following the coronation – that is simply how it's been done before.


    It is such a relief to get that sorted out!
