Basically, the wife of a King automatically becomes a Queen, but it doesn't work the other way round, viz QEII and Prince Phillip.

Being married to the king meant she was completely entitled to be called Queen, with or without an official coronation. That is the main difference between a Queen Consort (which Caoline was) and a Queen Regnant (like Elizabeth II).

Yes, she was entitle to the title 'Queen' as she was wife of the King, George IV. However, such was the hatred he felt for her, he refused to allow her to attend the coronation. However, that is merely a rite - the titles arise from the date of accession on the death of the previous monarch. There is the argument that George had contracted a previous 'marriage' to Mrs Fitzherbert, but that was probably illegal, and therefore void, as he had not obtained the King's consent (as required) and Mrs FH was a catholic and therefore the heir to the throne was debarred from marrying her.

She replaced into taken ill on the evening of the coronation and died from an inflammation or blockage of the bowels on 7, August 1821 and her physique , at her own request replaced into back to Brunswick it quite is incredibly unbelievable that she replaced into murdered through fact the clarification for dying replaced right into a protracted term medical condition

Although George IV was previously Prince of Wales, I'm not sure whether Caroline was ever "Princess of Wales" (she was, obviously, but whether she was referred to as that I don't know). I have always understood that she was known as Caroline of Brunswick ... until she became Queen, that is.

Yes she was entitled as the legal wife of a King.
The same thing will apply when the current Prince of Wales becomes King. Cowmilla will be Queen regardless of public opinion.

Indeed she was the Queen; they were legally married. However, she turned George's stomach because of her personal uncleanliness (who can blame the guy? I'm not talking simply armpits here!). He refused to have anything to do with her.
