Europa Press, en.edatv.news The United Kingdom, silent: they claim that Queen Camilla has already said goodbye
The queen of England, Camilla, makes a surprising decision that leaves everyone in the United Kingdom speechless
Since her investiture as queen consort, Camilla has been a central figure in the British royal family. Although her arrival to the throne caused divided opinions, over time she has managed to strengthen her relationship with the public. As she has advanced in her role, she has shown her support for various social causes.
The great commitment that Camilla has shown toward well-being and the environment has led her to earn the admiration of many sectors of British society. This time, she has taken an important step that hasn't gone unnoticed, increasing her popularity.
PETA's request and the queen's response
The animal rights organization PETA sent a letter to Queen Camilla to inform her about the practices of the fur industry. PETA informed her about "the cruel practices used in the fur industry," said Elisa Allen, PETA's vice president. After the request, Buckingham Palace replied that the queen consort had made the decision not to buy garments that included animal fur.
This gesture from the queen has been applauded by PETA, who celebrated her support for the cause. "PETA toasts Queen Camilla with a glass of the finest claret for being a true queen," declared Ingrid Newkirk, the organization's founder. The response to this decision reflects the growing social support for those who choose a more ethical and animal-friendly lifestyle.
A precedent in the royal family
Camilla isn't the first member of the British royal family to make this decision. "Queen Elizabeth II had also chosen to stop buying garments with animal fur," revealed Angela Kelly in her book about Elizabeth II. In 2019, Elizabeth II stopped wearing natural fur, adopting synthetic fur as an alternative.
In addition to this personal change, PETA has also encouraged the British to donate their fur coats to those who need them most. "We send your donations to homeless people, refugees, and people in war-torn areas," the organization stated. The decision by Queen Camilla not only symbolizes an ethical commitment but also extends to solidarity with those facing economic hardship.
This stance from the queen consort marks an important step toward a more conscious and responsible future regarding respect for animals and sustainability, inspiring many to follow her example.
