Queen Camilla's Beloved Companion, Beth, Passes Away: 'Brought Such Joy'

Buckingham Palace conveyed the sorrowful news of Beth, Queen Camilla's cherished rescue dog, passing away, PEOPLE reported. Announced on social media, a heartfelt tribute celebrated Beth's joy-filled companionship. Queen Camilla, 77, who adopted Beth from Battersea Dogs and Cats Home in 2011 and another Jack Russell Terrier, Bluebell, in 2012, bid a sad farewell.

Beth, suffering from an untreatable tumor, was euthanized over the weekend. Photos on Instagram highlighted the bond Queen Camilla shared with Beth, including moments with King Charles, where Beth playfully interacted with him. A memorable video featured Beth helping Camilla unveil a plaque at Battersea Dogs and Cats Home in 2020.

Queen Camilla, reflecting her deep connection, included her dogs in numerous official engagements, even incorporating them into her coronation gown in 2023, with designer Bruce Oldfield embroidering the dogs and the names of her family onto the dress. In 2016, Queen Elizabeth appointed Camilla as patron of Battersea Cats and Dogs Home, resonating with her passion for rescue animals.

Prince Harry, in his memoir "Spare," described Camilla's enduring commitment to rescued animals, recounting a 2016 tea conversation with Camilla and his future wife Meghan Markle about rescue dogs, highlighting Meghans' emotional recount of rescuing Guy from a kill shelter. These stories deeply affected Camilla, as Prince Harry noted.
