When Albert succeeded to the British throne as King George VI, Elizabeth became queen consort and was styled "Her Majesty The Queen" for the duration of her husband's reign.^{[citation needed]} Upon his death, she assumed the style of "Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother" to avoid confusion with her daughter, Queen Elizabeth II.^{[citation needed]}
