Maybe. Though his uncle's wife probably hadn't died eight years before.

The title of 'Princess Consort' is the same as the late Queen Victoria's husband Albert had (Prince Consort), apparently.
Ditto for Queen Elizabeth II's husband, who was Prince Philip of Greece before being granted the title Duke of Edinburgh when he married. He was the first in line to pledge his allegiance to the Queen at her coronation in 1952.

Wouldn't be surprised if Camilla gets some Royal title such as Duchess of Cornwall (her husband-to-be is already the reigning Duke of Cornwall, it came with the title of Prince of Wales) as a wedding-day present from the Queen. Since no pups are expected from the marriage, the title will die off when Camilla passes on.

ETA: -duh!- I shoulda read bekibug's post above before posting, as she already mentioned it!
