The family’s appearance was a historic moment for the Queen as it showed the core members of the royal family who are shaping the future of the monarchy. They were also joined by Prince William and Kate’s two younger children, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
In February, the Queen publicly backed the Duchess of Cornwall to become Queen consort when Prince Charles accedes to the throne. In a poignant message to mark the 70th anniversary of her own accession, Her Majesty renewed her 1947 pledge “that my life will always be devoted to your service,” but urged the public to support her son and heir and his wife when her remarkable reign finally comes to an end.

“And when, in the fullness of time, my son Charles becomes King, I know you will give him and his wife Camilla the same support that you have given me; and it is my sincere wish that, when that time comes, Camilla will be known as Queen Consort as she continues her own loyal service.”
Camilla was previously expected to be styled Princess Consort when her husband becomes King, a decision announced when the couple married in 2005.
