If the mother of the British sovereign had been the queen consort, then the customary title for her would usually be "Her Majesty the Queen Mother," although she might also be known by the the name and title she used during the lifetime of her late husband the king, such as, "Her Majesty Queen Mary." If the mother of the sovereign had not been a queen consort, then she would not become a "Queen Mother", but would continue with the title she had before the accession of the new sovereign. So, for example, Queen Victoria's mother, who had never been a Queen, continued to be known as "the duchess of Kent."
