Qatar’s Royal Couple attended a feast held by King Charles III and Queen Camilla, but the Queen’s headpiece was the main attraction, not the lavishness of the event.
In a gesture steeped in royal history, Queen Camilla wore the famous crown of the late Queen Elizabeth II for a State Banquet at Buckingham Palace. Online responses to the decision were divided, despite the fact that it represented continuity in the monarchy.
Sheikh Tamim bin Hamad Al Thani, the Amir of Qatar, and Sheikha Jawaher bint Hamad bin Suhaim Al Thani were recognized at the December 3 event. About 150 people came to celebrate the close diplomatic, cultural, and commercial relations between the UK and Qatar.
Camilla donned a red velvet evening gown by Fiona Clare for the event. She accessorized it with the diamond Kokoshnik tiara, which is strongly associated with the deceased Queen.
A diamond necklace from the royal collection and the Family Orders of King Charles III and Queen Elizabeth II completed Camilla’s ensemble.
Her clothing evoked strong feelings on the internet even though it was a nod to royal custom. “It makes me ill too see her wear this crown [sic],” one critic commented. An another person sarcastically expressed disdain of Camilla’s selection of the tiara.
“I’m sure Queen Elizabeth is screaming from her grave to take off her jewels,” said another scathing commenter. “I don’t think she was a fan of Camilla’s.” One of the others said quite plainly, “This is an utter disgrace.”
However, supporters praised her elegance. One royal fan raved, “The larger tiaras ready suit Queen Camilla [sic].” Another noted, “I love that The Queen Consort is wearing the Kokoshnik tiara! Suits her very well!”

On the other hand, a fan complimented her whole style, highlighting Camilla’s stunning dress and the tiara’s remarkable appearance.
In the midst of these divergent viewpoints, one commenter took a more impartial stand, defending Camilla by emphasizing her unwavering commitment to Charles and her crucial role in standing by him regardless of public opinion.
The monarchy’s dedication to its historical conventions in the present day is seen in Queen Camilla’s continued wearing of royal jewels, despite the differing viewpoints of internet users.
