This royal is going faux.
Queen Camilla is following in her late mother-in-law Queen Elizabeth II’s footsteps, with Buckingham Palace confirming to PETA U.K. Wednesday that she will not add any new pieces of fur clothing to her wardrobe.
“PETA is toasting Queen Camilla with a glass of the finest claret for being a true queen by standing with the 95% of British people who also refuse to wear animal fur, as polls show,” PETA President Ingrid Newkirk said in a press release.
