r7, not true. Wills and Harry had Diana for a mother who did not bring a lot of genetic diversity to Windsor party.

The Spencer family is not a pretty lot but Louis Spencer has Victoria Aiken for a mother. SHE is the reason he is so handsome, not those rotting Spencer chromosomes Wills and Harry got.

Anyone remember that show about five years ago, called Secret Princes? (Or something similar to that). They lived and worked temporarily in the U.S. and looked for an ordinary person to marry?

And that young guy from England with the snooty family/friends, who wanted to marry an American woman? She dumped his ass for having stupid friends that insulted her at dinner, and he never stuck up for her. I was a bit torn for that guy, because he was obviously becoming very happy. He jumped up and down and shouted happily while hunting. His father gave him shit, saying it wasn’t his station in life to shout, he wasn’t raised that way. His stupid friends all needed a punch in the head though. Lazy asses that inherited hedge fund jobs, and never worked a day in their life.

What happens if an heir gets gay married? Does the marriage "count" and can the kids inherit the title?

[quote] What happens if an heir gets gay married? Does the marriage "count" and can the kids inherit the title?

Yes, the marriage "counts" if same sex marriage is legal in their country. The right to inherit the title is laid out in the terms of the grant of the title. This cannot be changed, which is why some titles have died out. Most of the qualifications are that you have to be related by blood (not marriage) to the original grantee and you have to have been born legitimate or of a "marital relationship" which means you can be born before your parents marriage. In Britain, laws have been changed regarding the right of illegitimate children to inherit property, but not titles.

Well, r55, he was landed, loaded, and believed he had a divine right to what he wanted. That combination bends the world around a person. He dropped his title often enough that service people would think his name was Earl.

You're right, he had what must have been hundreds or even into the thousands of rent boys over the course of his life. He also had some notable names, including the actor Rupert Everett in his prime.

A gay marriage would count as the law was reformed in recent years.

It would count, but if a titled male aristocrat married a man, the man would not get a title.

Let's say the Marquess of Blandford married Joe Smih. They would be legally married, but Joe Smith would not have a title.

[quote] I'm assuming any child could still inherit title but I'm not 100% sure on that one though.

Nope. The person who inherits the title has to be the legitimate son of an heir and his wife.

If when Prince George grows up to be an adult he marries Jim Smith, and they have an adopted child, or even if George has a surrogate child with his own sperm that he adopts with his husband Jim Smith, the child would not be in line to inherit the throne of the UK. The line of succession would continue from George to Princess Charlotte and would skip his child, since the child was not the son or daughter of himself and his legitimate wife.

I imagine that if a royal had a same-sex marriage, the partner would likely either be given their own title (if they actually wanted one) or use a courtesy one from their partner's assemblage - like Camilla does. For their kids to be heirs, the Act of Succession would probably need to be amended, but that's not out of the question, if a future King William V wanted it.
