Queen Camilla has pledged not to buy any more fur products in the latest move by Buckingham Palace to not use animal products. 

The Palace sent a letter with 'the Queen's warmest wishes' to the People for Ethical Treatment of Animals (Peta) which vowed Camilla 'will not procure any new fur garments'.

The animal-rights group toasted the news with a glass of the finest claret and its managing director Ingrid Newkirk said: 'It's right and proper for the British monarchy to reflect British values by recognising that fur has no place in our society.'

The letter did not state whether she would no longer wear any existing real-fur outfits, the BBC reported.  

She has followed in the footsteps of the late Queen Elizabeth II who made headlines in 2019 when Her Late Majesty's senior dresser Angela Kelly revealed she was no longer using real fur in her outfits. 

Camilla secretly switched to fake fur hats back in 2017 after receiving a barrage of criticism for wearing a Russian-style real fur hat to the Royal Family's Sandringham Christmas Day church seven years earlier.

The latest row back by the royals continues the Palace's move towards becoming environmentally friendly with King Charles long championing green causes.

His Majesty broke Coronation Day tradition, dating back to at least as far back as Charles I, when he changed the recipe of the sacred oil (pictured) - which he was anointed with by the Archbishop of Canterbury - so it was 'cruelty free'

The 75-year-old monarch has made a raft of eco-friendly changes since he ascended to the throne in September 2022. 

His Majesty broke Coronation Day tradition, dating back to at least as far back as Charles I, when he changed the recipe of the sacred oil - which he was anointed with by the Archbishop of Canterbury - so it was 'cruelty free'.

The cruelty-free sacred oil that will anoint Charles as King: Monarch breaks Coronation Day tradition with recipe blended from olives picked next to his grandmother's grave in Jerusalem - while glands of civet cat and whale's stomach lining are removed

It was not the traditional mix of unguents, spices and pungent animal parts, as was the case up to and including the last Coronation.

This time, it was blended from olives which have been freshly picked alongside the grave of Prince Philip's mother in Jerusalem. It is there that she is buried on the Mount of Olives. Essential herbs and flowers, including jasmine and orange blossom, were also added.

The Palace called the new oil 'chrism', though the world know it better as one of the gifts of the Three Wise Men – myyrh. Its origins as an anointing oil go back to the Book of Exodus in the Bible. 

By doing so, The King swerved a confrontation with animal rights groups. The anointing oil used at previous coronations contained the glands of a civet cat, ambergris (the stomach lining of a sperm whale) and the secretions of a musk deer, in addition to more palatable ingredients such as rose, cinnamon and sesame. The new oil included nothing from another living creature. 

Meanwhile, the Coronation Roll  - the official recording of the proceedings - was for the first time in history made from paper due to Charles's interest in animal welfare. 

It had previously been written on parchment - which is made from calf, goat or sheepskin.

The King was central to a ban on foie gras at royal palaces in 2008 when he held the title of Prince of Wales.

He instructed chefs at all of his royal residences to stop serving the dish - which is described by opponents as 'torture in a tin' because it is produced by force-feeding ducks or geese until their livers are swollen.

At the time, Andrew Farquharson, deputy master of the household at Clarence House, revealed that his chefs had been ordered not to buy or serve the food.

He said: 'The Prince of Wales has a policy that his chefs should not buy foie gras.

'His Royal Highness was not aware that the House of Cheese sells foie gras and this will be addressed when their warrant is reviewed.'

Charles last year banned three of the finest foie gras chefs in France from using the fattened duck delicacy when they cooked for him and Queen Camilla at a lavish banquet.  

He was said to have provided a strict list of culinary demands for the meal at the Palace of Versailles. 

A source said: 'The King has banned foie gras from his residences in Britain, so there was no possibility of him eating it in France.

'He doesn't want asparagus that is out of season either, because shipping it in is environmentally damaging, but there will be a mushroom gratin, which was a favourite of Queen Elizabeth.

'We understand that Charles was out foraging for mushrooms just before his mother's death in Scotland'.
