Kate Middleton may decline new title out of respect for Princess Diana

Can't we just have one thread for all of this British Royal crap please?

She has awhile before deciding on this. QEII has to pass and Charles has to be king.

Whatever Kate decides, let's hope the Markles loses their titles.

By the time Kate becomes PoW, Diana will have been dead for at least 30 years. How long does that title have to be held in abeyance? Diana wasn't even married to Charles when she died.

If Diana's marriage hadn't ended in divorce and she had lived she would have been queen (provided Charles outlived QEII) and Catherine wouldn't be stealing anything from her.

I hope that Catherine does take the title. She'll be married to the Prince of Wales, and she deserves it. It's part of the package.

Let's not get carried away with worship of a departed heroine.

I think it would be lovely, gracious gesture on Kate's part to forego the title Princess of Wales. Nothing wrong continuing to pay respects to Diana.

Maybe the next Princess of Wales can Prince George's wife (should he have a wife).

This sounds like a load of crap coming straight from a Montecito fax machine.

Yeah, the sourcing for this is really dicey. I don't see any point in Kate giving up the title. It made sense for Camilla to demure, but Kate is William's first and only wife, mother of his children, and should be Princess of Wales to his Prince.

She'll decline it over Ma Middleton's dead body.

Will she be anointed with holy oils????

R10: As an olive branch to her sister-in-law, Kate will be annointed with essential oils.

What a ridiculous story.

Completely made up. The Duchess of Cambridge would never have discussed such a thing in public, or for public sharing in a manner that is ever more ridiculous,, and the concept itself is absurd. AND nothing would be more affirming of Diana's position in the history of the realm than having the title as the consort of Diana's son.

Ridiculous.

Meanwhile we experience the daily PR assault from the Cunts of Sussex, whose DAUGHTER WHO IS BLACK HAS NO TITLE, JUST AS HER BROTHER HAS NONE, AND BECAUSE OF SECURITY FEARS WE HAVE HAD TO MOVE TO CALIFORNIA TO PROVIDE SECURITY AND A WAY TO EARN INCOME WHILE REPRESENTING ALL THAT IS HOLY IN DIVERSITY AND HUMAN FREEDOM!!!!!!!!!!

Sorry. Channeling the screeches of the female cunt in the duo.

Yes, [R10], she will.

These royal articles get dumber by the second. When William becomes the Prince of Wales, Catherine becomes the Princess of Wales, end of story.

[quote]The Duchess of Cambridge, 39, is automatically entitled to the Princess of Wales title when Prince Charles takes the throne from Queen Elizabeth. Prince William will then become the Prince of Wales.

No. When Charles inherits (not "takes", ffs!) the crown, the title Prince of Wales will merge with the crown until he grants it to William.

That's true. Charles is not obligated to make William Prince of Wales immediately--or at all. I'm sure he will, but they may not do the investiture the same year as Charles' coronation. Charles has already said he wants a scaled-down coronation.

Charles turns the color of a grape when he walks 2 feet. His mother will outlive him.

For fucks sake, i just bought a new set of dishes! Back to eating off paper plates.

No Markle, whatever happens, your spawn and their nauseating lil' names will never be prince and princess. And you and your husband are not long for duke and duchess either.

Who the f*** cares? The British Royal family lives in a bubble. They don’t care one iota about what we or the folks in England think.

[quote] Kate Middleton may decline new title out of respect for Princess Diana

I'm not dead yet, you ANOREXIC CUNT!

Diana, Princess of Wales forever.

Retire the title.

I think she will take the title. Why not. Married to future king of UK.

Diana was a bipolar immature brat (like her son) who threw herself down the stairs while pregnant, chased after the Pakistani surgeon messaging him 200 times a day when he dumped her, brought her kids to party on Dodi's boat, and called Willz her best friend and Haz the spare. Mother of the year!

Give Kate the title.

The Brf don't give a fuck about us plebs. Who cares.

She should use the title. If she doesn't no one else will ever be able to use it

If camilla wasn't such a homewrecking whore, this wouldn't be an issue

Also Kate's fans are currently sitting on Lipstick Alley linking to a Russian blog that is solely dedicated to Doria. The site fabricates information. Doria is a convicted criminal. A whore. This is what Kate's supporters do everytime they take a hit. Which they did because of the refinery29 article. The Lipstick Alley unpopular thread has Millions of views. The Brf hasn't done a thing to stop their supporters and we are talking mainstream blogs that interact with Royal Reporters retweeting this link which makes out Doria to be a black criminal grifting whore. And they call themselves names relating to Kate. So are Kate supporters. The Brf just doesn't give a fuck.

[R26] There are also "mainstream blogs" which openly claim a lot of terrible things about the BRF and they haven't gone after any of them either. The only people who seem to be trying to silence criticism are the Sussexes.

Assuming William becomes POW I don't see why Kate would decline to use the title. Camilla uses DOC because of her part in the break up on Charles's first marriage but there's no reason for Kate not to make it her own. The title Duke of Edinburgh belonged to Philip for 73 years but that doesn't mean Edward can't make it his own as well.

Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge will be a bit of a mouthful for people to say, so yes, she'll be Princess of Wales, for sheer convenience.

Not a glimmer of a chance she won't be Princess of Wales.

Is the Express one of the Sucksexes outlets?

Deal with it, Megaloons: Kate will be The Princess of Wales. Just like Camilla actually is, although she isn't referred to as PoW in public.

[quote] The site fabricates information. Doria is a convicted criminal

She's never been convicted of a crime. If it were true,

1. The tabloids would have printed that the first day they knew Meghan and Harry were dating

2. That crazy stepsister would have told the tabloids

3. The crazy violent drunk brother would have sold the story to the tabloids

4. Arrest reports are a matter of public record. Are we supposed to believe no one in the entire world asked about this info?

Of course, Catherine will use the title.

Those titles have been held by many people who have died.

No one stops using a title because a previous owner died.

This story is really, really stupid.

So manipulative.

It's counter pr. Kate's fans are currently trolling twitter with racist tweets that show black men killed by police with statements like Meghan will be a real American soon lol. Death threats in other words. They have profile pics of Kate. It's just been retweeted again by another celeb. So millions are seeing Kate's fans make death threats. Not a good look. But it's the Brf. And they just don't give a fuck that their supporters are racist trolls

I'm rather hoping that Charles goes before Lizzie and the crown goes right to Wills. Then George can become the Prince of Wales and we won't have to deal with the Princess title for several more years - especially if George turns out to be a homo.

If Wills is given the title, does he get a big ceremony at Caernarfon Castle?

Seriously grow up r34. This isn't junior high, and the battle of the Mean Girls. Give it a rest no one cares about the online bot battles.

dumbest thread ever, try harder KGT

If William becomes Prince of Wales, there probably will be a nice ceremony in Wales. They haven't had a PoW investiture since 1969, and before that, there hadn't been one since Prince David (future Edward VIII) was given the title in 1910. It's not a ceremony that happens very often, so it would be exciting to have a new one.

[quote] If William becomes Prince of Wales, there probably will be a nice ceremony in Wales.

Is it tradition to have it at Caernarfon Castle or is that just where Charles' investiture took place?

Charles and David were both invested at Caernarfon, so that may be the tradition.

I wonder if Kate ever gets some surprise anal?

[quote] No one stops using a title because a previous owner died.

No: Camilla is technically the Princess of Wales right now, but she does not use that title out of respect for Diana, and instead goes by an ancillary title, the Duchess of Cornwall.

It's the least that old bag could do after breaking up their marriage and enticing Charles to want to be her Tampax!

Haha! Nice try, Hag. She will be the Princess of Wales. You, however, will probably be giving blowjobs to deplorables for pocket change. Muhaha! Should have played nice with the Queen.

[quote] Is it tradition to have it at Caernarfon Castle or is that just where Charles' investiture took place?

The ceremony of the investiture has only been done one other time in the modern era: for Edward VIII (later Duke of Windsor) in 1911. It was also held at Caernarfon Castle.

It could be seen as a big insult to Wales - certainly played as such. There is zero chance she won't be Princess of Wales if William becomes Prince.

I'm not so sure Camilla's not using her Princess of Wales title was "out of respect to Diana" so much as it was a stipulation of Wills and Harry "fully embracing" her and giving the marriage their "blessing".

William and Harry were the stars of the family at that time, so yes, they had that power.

R45 - Do you know why there weren't investitures prior to 1911? Or, more directly, why Edward VIII got one? He was something of a dandy. Might have he insisted on one?

Prince David, the future Edward VIII, was only 16 years old when he was invested as Prince of Wales. He didn't want to be invested yet at all, but his father George V insisted. David protested the widely released picture of him wearing his crown and robes: He thought his schoolmates would make fun of him. His mother Queen Mary tried to reassure him that his friends would understand that he was simply doing his duty, but he wasn't comforted by that.

You're American r47, right?

Just a tip for the Americans: most of what you read in the Daily Express is complete bullshit. The best thing to do is just not read it.

[quote] for Edward VIII (later Duke of Windsor) in 1911.

"Now, I'll have to abdicate . . . like Edward Vee One One One."

Thanks, r49. I didn't realize he was so young.

I don't know if I've read conflicting reports or he changed over time, but he was known as something of a "people's prince," so to speak for a while? He was popular. He also spent a great deal of money, spent a lot of time out of the U.K., had indiscreet affairs and felt entitled to it all and became increasingly imperious.

Camilla didn't decide not to be styled Princess of Wales, Her Majesty did. No one else has the authority.

David had the Palace PR machine working even more furiously for him than it ever did for Prince Harry. David was the heir, after all. The press adored him because he was young, blond, and destined to be king, but in reality, he was a short, stupid, petulant man with the emotional capacity of a teenager.

David hated carrying out Royal duties, which he referred to as 'princing.' Like his younger brother Bertie, David had been emotionally neglected by his parents and abused by a psychotic nanny as a young boy. He had serious issues which his high-pressure job worsened. If they could have found him a supportive, appropriate wife like they found for Bertie, David might have been able to deal with becoming king. But he was only supposed to marry a princess, and all the princesses his parents found either he didn't like or they didn't like him.

Actually, there was one (whose name escapes me) whom he did like, and who liked him, and she might have made a good match. But there was a streak of mental instability in her family, and his parents feared for the children the marriage would create. After they put the kibosh on that marriage, David never seriously pursued an appropriate bride again.

[quote] Camilla didn't decide not to be styled Princess of Wales, Her Majesty did. No one else has the authority.

No one has to use a title if they don't want to. Many aristocrats do not use theirs.

You'd have to provide a link to a believable source if you want anyone to believe it was the queen's express decision that she go by Duchess of Cornwall.

She needs to shove that crown up her cunt so cuntgan can't get it.

Why shouldn't Kate use the Princess of Wales title? Diana has been dead for nearly a quarter century, there is a whole generation of grown men and women for whom Diana is nothing but an historical figure. Time and life move on....
