Default The Role of a Royal Consort

Ok with seeing all the hoopla around CP Mary and Fred's trip to her native country and how much she is lauded for her fashion sense, I got to thinking about what the role of a royal consort should be. To me it seems as if some consorts, like MAry, are looked to just for their fashion sense. I know that her marrying into the DRF is a fairytale, but it seems to me that she is just a fashion plate. Being a just a fashion plate is just not worth it.

But when I see other royal consorts, such as the late great Queen Mom, CPs Mette-Marit and Letizia, and Queen Sofia, and others, I see the role of a royal consort as very valuable and fulfilling.

Also I am not trying ot put Mary or other consorts down. It is just that there is so much emphasis on materialism and style and not issues that should really count.

What do you guys think?
