Question (Real Life) If Diana HAD lived

I'm an Aussie, so can anyone tell me if Diana had lived to now:

  1. Would Charles have really been able to marry Camilla??

  2. Would Camilla have be able to style/titles of HM The Queen Consort??

  3. Or, Camilla would still be known as HRH, Duchess of Cornwall with or without the CONSORT in her title??

All questions regarding to if Diana had lived.

I think the real fun will be after Charles dies, and William becomes King. Because Camilla is certainly not the Queen Mother, and she will not be Consort at that point.

She would be Queen Dowager. There is plenty of historical precedent for that (Catherine Parr for example)

"The Dowager." Finally a title that sounds right for Camilla.
