She seems to like her gray. Do we expect a lot of class from an adulteress? Okay...you can tell, I can't stand her nor him. I can't believe she'll get to be called Queen something or other. Ugggh!

It's ultimately up to Parliament and the people as to whether she'll be Queen Consort. I agree with you. Brits have a long memory I am told.

Weather Camilla it's called Queen or not has nothing to do with the present monarch.
She has ruled for 70 years, but she can't carry on ruling after she's gone.
It'll be up to the King, as advised by his Privy Council, to decide on Camilla's style. Both Victoria and the current Queen decided on the title of their consorts' titles in the face of a considerable lobby who wanted King in their title. Poor Lady Jane Grey was executed for not naming her husband as King, and the poor kid was only 15!
I shall certainly regard and honour Camilla as Queen.
All of Henry VIII's wives were treated as Queens throughout the realm,

There was a brief report on the Queen wanting her to take the title Queen Consort. Although her pass misgivings were alluded to, it seems she's somehow been able to reduce the degree of dislike Englanders feel. It was mentioned that even Prince William approves of her.

Nothing to do with her, or William.
I repeat it's a matter for the king, and his Privy Council.

...and the future King..Cahrles, has annunced just today that his Queen Consort, Camilla, will be crowned at the same time as he is crowned King... side by side...

I had that precise thought today when I heard him make that statement.. ..but it does make me wonder if perhaps PC knows more about the Queen's state of health than the public do.. it would make more sense..
I thought that too @hollydolly but still it seems not just rude but ghoulish. Settle down Charles.

With her health issues over the last few months and now possibly being exposed to or having COVID, I was wondering too. Do royals usually make these kinds of pronouncements ahead of time or is it actually considered rude (and ghoulish) as @Pepper pointed out?

Well, she seemingly has lost a fair amount of weight recently and her legs and ankles definitely are retaining a fair amount of fluid.

No, in my whole life I've never heard the Royals make statements like this ahead of time..only the Monarch ...and even she is the absolute sole of discretion unless it has to be a public announcement

Which is right and proper, and as it should be.

She, the Queen, started it, and he's entitled to make his position, and that of his wife, clear,

The Queen made clear her intolerance and dislike of Camilla when she refused to attend the wedding.
Time and distance has not made her clear distaste any the less

I thought she couldn't attend the wedding was because the queen, being head of the Church of England, is supposed to uphold the rules of the church,,,, in this case, no divorce or marrying divorced people.
That's what I read back then.
I know back then the queen didn't like Camilla, but I hear now she likes her.

she didn't go to the service, but she did go to the prayer reception afterwards..
oddly she also attended Princes Anne's second marriage after her divorce too...
I believe the Queen has always been friendly with Camilla , and just followed protocol ...
She was very friendly with the Parker Bowles when they were yoounger, Princess Anne herself had, had an affair with Camilla's husband... Andrew Parker Bowles

The Duchess of Cornwall has tested positive for COVID-19, Clarence House has said.
Camilla, 74, caught the virus for the first time just days after her husband the Prince of Wales caught it a second time.
A Clarence House spokesman said on Monday: "Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Cornwall has tested positive for COVID-19 and is self-isolating.
"We continue to follow government guidelines."
Both Charles and Camilla have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19, including a booster shot.

That's why w broke away from Catholicism, so that the monarch could be head of the church.
She makes the rules, she appoints the archbishops, she is the one anointed by God.
She went to Anne's second wedding, why not Charles'?
The reason she gave for not attending was that she wanted to be there to welcome them when they arrived back.
There's not a groom's mother in the world who would believe such a fatuous remark
