Why are the media referring to the fact that when William is king his wife will be Queen Catherine? How can this be when The Queen is accompanied by Prince Phillip, the Duke of Edinburgh and not by "The King"?? How will it really work? As far as I know we didn't have Queen Victoria and King Albert either for example ....... confused.com

Jno, to be pedantic, the correct address for a married woman is, for example, Mrs David Cameron, not that I do.
You can't let a female go deciding who our king would be ! What are you thinking !
That's right OG. If a woman is divorced she can still be Mrs Cameron but she would be Mrs Samantha Cameron not Mrs David Cameron.
A king outranks a queen so there can never be a king consort. So in the cases like the present Queen where she is by right of succession the Queen then her husband will be a Prince and sometimes also a duke. eg Prince Albert was consort to Queen Victoria. Prince William's Wife will be Queen consort when he succeeds. As will Prince Charles's but due to media hysteria she may well choose not to use the title.
Philip II of Spain was granted the title of King consort to Mary I
