Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall
Britain's Duchess of Cornwall doesn't want to be queen.
There was a meeting before their wedding when this was agreed. It's her wish that she be known as Princess Consort and that won't change.
The 64-year-old royal - who is married to future king Prince Charles - has no desire to be known as Queen Camilla when Charles' mother, Queen Elizabeth, eventually passes away and he ascends the throne.
She would rather be called Princess Consort because of the widespread memories of Princess Diana, who Charles divorced in 1996, a year before her death.
A royal aide told the Daily Express: "There was a meeting before their wedding when this was agreed. It's her wish that she be known as Princess Consort and that won't change."
However, legally it may be a problem as when the couple wed in 2005 the royal household claimed it was only a convention that the wife of a king was known as his queen.
Now staff at Clarence House accept the government's view that the king's wife automatically becomes queen unless there is legislation preventing it.
A source said: "It will be up to the government of the day to decide whether it thinks legislation is needed. Otherwise she will, as you say, legally be queen but that doesn't mean she has to be known by that title.
"In the same way, she is legally the Princess of Wales but she doesn't use that title because of the sensitivities."
