Camilla In ‘Hard Place’ Between Queen Elizabeth, Princess Diana As Future ‘Queen’

Camilla Parker Bowles will find herself in a very difficult place when Prince Charles is crowned is King. When this happens, the Duchess of Cornwall will be known as the new Queen of the United Kingdom since she’s married to Prince Charles.

In the book “The Duchess,” one of Camilla’s relatives told royal author Penny Junor that they are worried about the mom of two’s future. After all, the role and title of Queen are closely associated with Her Majesty and Princess Diana. The latter was supposed to be the next Queen if she and Prince Charles didn’t divorce.

“Between Diana and the Queen is a hard place to be. People might go a bit wild. The Queen who’s been in our lives forever, the worship of Diana, and suddenly Queen Camilla,” the source said.

The shakeup could be both dangerous and daunting to Camilla and Prince Charles. But according to MP Frank Field, regardless of the possible backlash, the heir to the throne will insist on giving his wife the title of Queen.

“We have no known basis of the wife of the King not being crowned Queen. It is how that goal is achieved which is crucially important,” he said.

Junor also said that the title by the wife of the King is not dictated by law but it is established through custom and practice. In the past, wives of Kings are only known as Queen Consorts. However, none of them were previously divorced like the Duchess of Cornwall.

But at the end of the day, the royal author is confident that Prince Charles is very proud of his wife, and he’s also grateful for everything that he has sacrificed for him. As such, he would want her to be called Queen Camilla. However, this doesn’t mean that Camilla is looking forward to the day that she will be called Queen.

“She is in this position because of her love of the man, not because of her desire to be anything more than a support to him. The whole business of his accession is something she dreads and, in her inimitable way, is choosing not to think about,” Junor said.
