Beth, alongside her companion Bluebell, had been a central part of the Queen's life since their adoption in 2017 from Battersea Dogs & Cats Home.
Both dogs were rescued under challenging circumstances, with Beth having endured being moved between multiple homes before finding a safe and loving environment with the Queen Consort.
A lifelong advocate for animal welfare
Both Beth and Bluebell not only became family but also public symbols of Queen Camilla's advocacy for rescue animals.
The pair frequently appeared with Camilla in official portraits, including a feature on the cover of Country Life magazine in 2022, where they donned pearl necklaces. At the Queen's coronation, her love for her pets was evident in the intricate embroidery of their images on her gown.
Remembering Beth’s legacy
Beth’s passing marks the end of a beautiful chapter in the Queen's life with her loyal companion. Camilla has often shared how dogs bring comfort and joy, offering unconditional love.
On the Royal Family's official Instagram page, a sweet tribute was paid to the little dog:
"A sad farewell to Beth, The Queen’s much-loved companion from @Battersea Dogs and Cats Home who brought such joy, whether on walkies, helping on official duties, or curled up by the fire. 🐾"
RIP, Beth, you will be sorely missed!
