Queen Camilla has made history as the first royal woman to be admitted to the esteemed Garrick Club. This private members' club, established in London in 1831, officially began admitting women in 2024, ending its 193-year all-male tradition. Her Majesty's membership was formally accepted after a meeting where she was proposed and seconded.

Her admission follows significant pressure on the club and a vote that passed with nearly 60 percent in favor. Queen Camilla's membership is expected to be officially confirmed in April. This development occurred around the same time she hosted a prestigious reception at Clarence House for the inaugural Queen's Reading Room Medal awards.
