The queen is dead, long live the king. September 8, 2022 will most likely be remembered as a day of national mourning for the UK. Elizabeth II died at the age of 96, leaving behind her no less than 70 years of reign.

Kate Middleton, wife of the heir, becomes Princess of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall. This first title was never used by the new Queen Consort, Camilla, presumably out of respect to Princess Diana.
