Queen dies: Camilla becomes queen, consort of king without monarchy
Image : AFP
Camilla, 75, would not always take the title for granted, even though it did not give her any monarchical powers.
While the king's wife is traditionally crowned queen, what title Camilla will have when Charles becomes king has been a thorny question for years. This is due to her sensitive status as a second wife and the wave of grief that swept the UK after Charles' ex-wife Princess Diana died in a car accident in 1997.
Charles and the royal family have acted cautiously, heeding the lingering public perception that Camilla was the "third party" who destroyed the marriage between Charles and Diana.
However over the decades, Camilla has won over much of the British public with her cautious, down-to-earth personality and devotion to her husband.
In February 2022, she passed her mother-in-law. Queen Elizabeth II announced as she celebrated her 70th anniversary on the throne that she wanted Camilla to be known as queen after Charles became king. The endorsement formally signifies the royal family's acceptance of Camilla as a respected senior member and is widely seen as a move by the queen to smooth her transition to Charles' rule.
The last Queen of the United Kingdom was Queen Elizabeth, wife of George VI, and after her daughter became monarch in 1952, she was known as the Queen Mother in her later years.
Camilla was born on 17 July 1947, from a noble family with long-standing close ties to the British royal family. Her great-grandmother, Kepper, was the consort of King Edward VII.
In 1970, at the age of 23, she met Charles at a polo match, and their relationship blossomed but the relationship was interrupted by Charles having to serve in the Navy for eight months.
Camilla married her army officer boyfriend Bowers in 1973 but the two divorced in 1995 after Charles admitted to having an affair with Camilla, and Charles divorced Diana the following year. Charles and Camilla waited another nine years to marry in a private ceremony at Windsor Town Hall in 2005. Since then, Camilla has taken on dozens of royal duties.
In 2021, Buckingham Palace awarded Camilla the highest level, The Most Noble Order of the Garter, underlining Camilla's role as a senior royal.

Charles succeeds to the throne, coins, national anthem, passports will have a new look
The death of Queen Elizabeth II and the arrival of Prince Charles as king will change many aspects of British life, from the national anthem to coins and stamps to passports.
According to media reports such as Central News Agency and Agence France-Presse, the portrait of the new monarch will be printed on the coins and banknotes of the United Kingdom and other countries of the British Association in the future. Portraits of the British monarch also appear on the obverse of the Eastern Caribbean, Canada, Australia and New Zealand coins.
In addition, British stamps and coins are also printed with the head of the monarch. According to the tradition since the 17th century, the head of the new monarch must be in the opposite direction of the previous monarch, with Elizabeth II facing right and Charles III facing left. Badges on police helmets will also be replaced.
Referring to the release schedule of the Queen Elizabeth II stamp, the Queen took the portrait three weeks after inheriting the throne of her father King George VI in February 1952, and approved it about two months later. The portrait was updated in 1967.

"God Save the Queen" will be changed to "God Save the King"
"God save the Queen" will be replaced with "God Save the King" in the British national anthem, a male version of the national anthem that has not been sung since 1952.
The Straits Times reported that "God Save the Queen" or "God Save the King" must be sung in the British national anthem depending on whether the incumbent is a queen or a king, and is not written into law. Many Commonwealth countries also have the British national anthem alongside another song as their national anthem.
Now that the Queen has passed away, the lyrics of the British national anthem may be changed immediately, which means the first stanza will read: "God bless the king! May he live forever! God bless the king! Victory and glory; Rejoice; govern the country, the King's luck forever; God bless my king!"
The question, though, is whether British sports fans will be happy to make the slight change, or will continue to sing "God Save the Queen" before the game, at least for now, in tribute to their beloved Queen Elizabeth II. The answer will be revealed soon, as England's men's football team faces the Italian side in Milan on 23 September 2022.

The text on the inside pages of the passport is updated accordingly
The media pointed out that the text on the inner pages of the British passport will also be updated, because in the past passports were issued in the name of the Queen, and Charles III no longer needs a passport after he ascended the throne. Citizens' passports will change, with Her Majesty's Passport Office changing to His Majesty's Passport Office, and similar government agencies.
The British Army Medal includes outstanding performance and awards for long-term service, etc., and the portrait will be replaced by Elizabeth II with Charles III. The opening remarks to the head of state in formal occasions will also be changed from "queen" to "king".
The British "Independent" reported that from a historical point of view, coins played an important role in spreading the king's reputation, because for many people, the image of the king engraved on the coin is the only monarch they may see in their lifetime portrait.

During Queen Elizabeth II's more than 70 years on the throne, there were five versions of the monarch portrait coin in circulation, the last version showing her wearing a diamond tiara in 2015, which she used to present as her dress up at the opening of Parliament.
Despite the new King, coins bearing the Queen's portrait may continue to be issued in the short term, and the currency in circulation can still be used effectively.
The process of converting into new currency and new stamps is gradual. In the future, banks and post offices will gradually recycle old versions. Many people may keep the Queen-engraved coins as souvenirs.
In addition, Queen Elizabeth II selected her own personal flag in 1960, which is a blue background with a golden capital letter E surrounded by roses and a crown. This flag will be hoisted on buildings, ships, vehicles and planes where the Queen travels or stays for a long time. . Charles III will also need a flag to represent himself when he comes to the throne.
