Queen consort

A queen consort is the wife of a reigning king. She holds the title of queen but does not have the same powers or responsibilities as a reigning monarch. Her role often involves supporting the king, engaging in public duties, and representing the monarchy at events. Unlike a queen regnant, who rules in her own right, a queen consort’s status is derived from her marriage to the king. Her position is one of dignity and tradition, embodying the monarchy’s cultural and ceremonial aspects without governing authority.
