Royal Consorts of Scotland

Okay kiddo, so a royal consort of Scotland is someone who is married to the King or Queen of Scotland. Think of it like your mommy and daddy - your mommy is the Queen and your daddy is the King, so your daddy would be a royal consort.

In Scotland's history, the royal consort was usually a woman who married the King. But sometimes it could be a man who married the Queen. When they got married, they would become a really important part of the royal family and help the King or Queen out with royal duties.

But being a royal consort wasn't always easy. Some of them had to deal with lots of problems and even wars. But they were always very loyal to the King or Queen and did their best to help them out.

So there you have it, being a royal consort of Scotland means you are married to the King or Queen and help them out with their royal duties.
