If george VI had not issued the letters patent to give Elizabeth's kids the HRH and title, Charles would have been the Earl of Merioneth and Anne as Lady Anne Mountbatten until elizabeth became queen.Marlene Eilers Koenighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14984860671065161997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762674434623075554.post-64867857175675510062010-11-19T11:05:31.952-05:002010-11-19T11:05:31.952-05:00I wasn't aware that Carrick was speficially re...I wasn't aware that Carrick was speficially reserved for the sole use of the heir under under Duke of Rothesay, but in theory, aren't the additional titles attatched to the Dukedom of Edinburgh still in play as courtesy titles?<br /><br />For instance, if titles weren't available in his own right, wouldn't Charles be entitled to use Earl of Merioneth?tjmooneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13324945936937361298noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762674434623075554.post-25558941620002721522010-11-19T10:53:38.362-05:002010-11-19T10:53:38.362-05:00too funny.

Moreover, William's son will be HRH Prince. There will be a service of thanksgiving for Philip - and the wedding will not take place near the time of the Trooping or Ascot.Marlene Eilers Koenighttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14984860671065161997noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8762674434623075554.post-22731252871077764702010-11-19T10:14:28.763-05:002010-11-19T10:14:28.763-05:00I'll put on my Carnac the Magnificent outfit, ...I'll put on my Carnac the Magnificent outfit, go crazy, and say William and Kate will select June 10 for their wedding so Prince Philip gets his wish that his 90th birthday not be a huge do in his honour. To honour the day, however, Prince William's supporters will be Prince Harry and the Duke of Edinburgh. Following the wedding, William and Kate will be known as TRH The Earl and Countess of Carrick with access to either the Baronies of Greenwich or Renfrew should their eldest child be male.<br /><br />Stay tuned after the break when my guests will be Charo and Joan Embery from the San Diego Zoo...tjmooneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13324945936937361298noreply@blogger.com
