Best Answer

To become Queen of any country, one is either married or is born into the royal household. Elizabeth II of United Kingdom is an example of being born into the monarchy. Queen Elizabeth II's mother and father did not have any sons so the line of succession fell to her. When Elizabeth's father died without male heirs, Elizabeth succeeded the throne. If you are married to the King, then you become the Queen. But since this lady is not born into the royal household, this lady has no power. Her function is to produce heirs to the throne. The respect is to the bloodline, not to the ruling function. That's why there is a Queen Mother. She has no ruling function, she's the mum of the King or Queen who was born into the royal household.

Give birth to someone who will rule. Typically you would do this by marrying the reigning monarch, or the heir apparant.

What do you call the mother of a king?

If the mother of the British sovereign had been the queen consort, then the customary title for her would usually be "Her Majesty the Queen Mother," although she might also be known by the the name and title she used during the lifetime of her late husband the king, such as, "Her Majesty Queen Mary." If the mother of the sovereign had not been a queen consort, then she would not become a "Queen Mother", but would continue with the title she had before the accession of the new sovereign. So, for example, Queen Victoria's mother, who had never been a Queen, continued to be known as "the duchess of Kent."
