Camilla has now taken on the role of Queen Consort following the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The 96 year old sovereign passed away on 8 September at her Scottish residence, Balmoral Castle, with her eldest son Charles, 73, and his wife Camilla, 74, by her side.

With her husband, now known as King Charles III, immediately becoming the new monarch, mum-of-two Camilla, formerly known as the Duchess of Cornwall, has also been given a new title - Queen Consort.
