List of current consorts of sovereigns
The following is a list of current royal consorts—people with an official status through marriage or concubinage with a reigning monarch. The list only includes royal consorts of sovereign states, and does not include viceregal consorts such as spouses of governors-general, nor does it include consorts of non-sovereign monarchies (such as the Yogyakarta Sultanate, the Māori King movement, or the traditional monarchies of South Africa).
