She is the queen mother of Cordonia as the stepmother of King Liam and was previously queen consort as the wife of King Constantine from her marriage in 2004 until the king's abdication in 2021. She is the stepmother of King Liam, Prince Leonardo, Duke of Moselle and Princess Lena-Marie, The Lady Westinghouse. Before becoming a member of the Cordonian royal family, she was a painter. She was born a member of the House of Amaranth and is the aunt of Madeleine Amaranth, Countess of Fydelia.

Titles and styles

  • 12 December 1959 – 11 December 2004: Her Ladyship The Lady Regina Amaranth
  • 11 December 2004 – 19 May 2021: Her Majesty The Queen
  • 19 May 2021 – 2 November 2022: Her Majesty Queen Regina The Queen Mother
  • 2 November 2022 – present: Her Majesty Queen Regina

Regina has been titled as Lady Regina from birth as the daughter of a duke. Upon marrying the King, Regina automatically became queen consort in accordance with Cordonian law and was "Her Majesty The Queen" since 2004. There were some objections by conservatives in Cordonia regarding her title and role as queen when she became engaged to King Constantine–which would be his third marriage–but there is no precedent for the wife of a king to be known by a lesser title. The King voluntarily abdicated the throne and elected to become "His Majesty King Constantine The King Father" and Regina's title mirrored it, with her becoming "Her Majesty Queen Regina The Queen Mother". King Constantine died in June 2021 and Regina retained her title and style as a widower. She obtained permission from King Liam to drop the title The Queen Mother and simply be known as "Her Majesty Queen Regina", which was granted on 2 November 2022.
