A baroness is a female member of the aristocracy, typically holding the title of "baron" in her own right or as the wife of a baron. The title is part of the British peerage system and can be hereditary or life peerage, granted for contributions to society. Baronesses often have the honorific "The Right Honourable" if they are members of the House of Lords.
