Duchess Camilla says new title "does help" advocacy work
Duchess Camilla appeared on BBC Breakfast on Thursday, sitting down with Emma Barnett as she discussed becoming Queen Consort. The duchess called being given the title "a great honor," admitting that it "does help" further the important work she does in relation to women and domestic abuse. She also shared that she views it as a lifelong responsibility!
"You know if I start something like this, I'm not going to, to give up mid-channel," the Duchess of Cornwall shared.
