Alongside several photos of the Queen Consort and Beth, the royal family’s official X account announced the “sad farewell.”
The message continued … “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. 🐾.”
Queen Camilla adopted Beth from the organization back in 2011 … expanding her brood once more in 2012, when she and husband, King Charles III, also adopted Bluebell — also a Jack Russell Terrier.
While the British royal is known for overseeing a number of charities, Camilla has always been a vocal advocate for animal causes.
She notably put a spotlight on the Battersea Dogs & Cats Home in a 2022 episode of ITV’s “For the Love of Dogs” … which celebrated the animal rescue service’s 160th anniversary.
Camilla has also made a number of appearances at the organization over the years.
Claire Horton, the home’s former chief executive, opened up about Camilla’s connection with Beth in the 2018 biography “The Duchess: The Untold Story.” As the nonprofit employee put it at the time … Beth was “exactly what the Duchess was looking for.”
Despite her royal connection, Camilla still had to have a home-visit check to formally adopt Beth. Claire said Her Majesty didn’t put up a fuss … in fact, she “insisted she should have no special treatment.”
The rest, as they say, was history.
