The royal family is set to undergo significant changes as Prince Charles ascends to the throne, with his vision for a streamlined monarchy potentially resulting in Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie losing their titles.
According to royal expert Marlon Cohen, there will likely be a downgrade for Beatrice and Eugenie, who may be referred to as the daughters of a Duke, a status that was established in 1917 for great-grandchildren in the male line.
This move aligns with Charles’ focus on gender equality and succession, aspects often overlooked by the public.
So, what alternatives would the former prince and princesses have?
They could potentially be addressed as Lord and Lady, or sometimes even Earl.
These titles would still carry a sense of prestige, similar to the Danish equivalent under Queen Margrethe II.
The Danish queen, who was known to be a close friend of Queen Elizabeth II, recently removed titles from some of her grandchildren in an effort to reduce the size of the Danish royal family.
Although she expressed regret for the decision, she emphasized that holding a royal title entails significant commitments and duties, which should be limited to a select few members of the royal family.
Queen Margrethe II’s decision caused a rift within her own family, despite her hopes of finding peace and allowing them to focus on their roles.
Similar concerns have been raised about Prince Charles following suit.
Andrew Lowney, author of “Traitor King: The Scandalous Exile of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor,” suggests that Charles has made it clear that only the direct line of succession will hold importance.
This could potentially impact popular royals like Lady Louise Windsor and her brother James, Viscount Severn, whose positions may be diluted despite the prominent roles played by their parents, Sophie, Countess of Wessex, and Prince Edward, within the royal family.
The question arises: What lies ahead for Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie under King Charles’ reign?
Will they face a downgrade or retain their current status?
