I wonder who will get her beautiful jewels and clothes?

The Queen always had a big smile when surrounded by handsome polo players and their horses from Argentina.

Rest in peace Queen Mum. I am not remotely British but love British things and have a trip planned to visit for this summer. I am a lover of auto and biographies so I feel she is not perfect but is just and fair as a great leader, even figuratively. I will miss her.

The country owns them not the family.
Some of the jewels are the Queen’s personal property, and I assume will be dispensed according to her will. Many of the jewels, including the “Crown Jewels,” belong to the Crown, so they will be under Charles’s control.
No they don't get dispensed, they get kept in a line - so Camilla can wear them and then Kate.
Interesting - so the Queen doesn't will any of them specifically? Does she have personal property/items she can pass through a will?
She can will her personal jewels as she pleases. The pieces that belong to the Crown stay in the vault.
Yepso Camilla will have first pick and will probably reserve a few for her personal exclusive use (which she already has but may start wearing ones that were reserved for QEII only). Catherine will either get second pick or Charles/Camilla will loan specific ones out to her.
It’s so disrespectful calling the late Queen Elizabeth II by the name of a ship, the QEII. Please stop.
Sorry. Didn’t mean to disrespect. I was going to say the Queen before I realized I’d be talking about a different personI personally wish the press would stop calling Catherine Kate Middleton eleven years after her marriage so I get it…
Why are we supposed to call Kate Catherine?

A Range Rover being driven by Prince William and carrying Prince Andrew, Prince Edward and Edward's wife Sophie has arrived at Balmoral Castle.

He flies helicopters, I’m sure he can manage a car. The Queen drove until very recently. She was a mechanic during WWII.
Kate drove to Lamberton to pick the kids up from school. Philip drove. They all do. Security is different there.
Queen Elizabeth also drove. Was a ambulance(?) driver in WW II in England. She served her country well.

Will she be called Queen Camilla?
Yes. Her officially title is Her Majesty Queen Camilla. She is a Queen Consort because she is not a Queen in her own right (Queen Regnant).
