ReplyDeleteHasn't Prince Philip to die before Sophie Wessex can claim the Edinburgh title? It's linked to Philip surely and not the queen?
ReplyDeleteEmpress of Blandings,
ReplyDeleteYou're correct; though I understand that this also applies re The Queen.
As I understand it the Queen is still Duchess of Edinburgh. She could be treated as the Dowager Duchess but I think with Royal Dukedoms they are in the gift of the monarch, and the plan is to wait for Charles III.
ReplyDeleteI wonder if we'll see an announcement before the coronation?
