In an upcoming book by esteemed author Robert Jobson, it has been disclosed that Princess Charlotte, the middle child of the Prince and Princess of Wales, is set to receive a new royal title.
The decision, made by Prince Charles himself, is an effort to ensure that Charlotte maintains an important role within the family as her older brother, Prince George, ascends to the throne.
Jobson explains that Charles, mindful of the predetermined future awaiting nine-year-old Prince George, has taken great care in reserving one of the most prestigious titles for Princess Charlotte.
Currently known as Lottie by her mother and Mignonette, which means “cute little thing” in French, by her father, Charlotte, now seven years old, is expected to become the Duchess of Edinburgh once her uncle, Edward, passes away.
It is worth noting that the title bestowed upon Edward is only for his lifetime.
While the book does not mention the potential title for Prince Louis, the youngest of Kate Middleton’s three children, it sheds light on Charles’ discussions with his aides regarding the future roles of Meghan and Harry.
The continued use of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles by the couple has been a topic of high-level deliberation.
Although the king is believed to be against revoking their titles, despite pressure from palace officials, Jobson reveals that the idea of stripping Harry of his Duke of Sussex title has been contemplated at the highest level.
While Charles may be hesitant, other senior royals are less lenient.
Despite Charles’ enduring love for his son, mounting pressure may force him to take action if Harry persists in his criticisms of the monarchy.
At that point, the king would face a difficult choice: tolerate the tarnishing of his reign or take measures to limit its impact.
In essence, Harry and Meghan could potentially find themselves demoted to the status of Mr. and Mrs. Mountbatten of Windsor, residing in Montecito, California.
The revelations brought forth by Jobson’s book highlight the intricacies and complexities surrounding the royal family’s future.
As the monarchy evolves, it is clear that Charles is actively shaping the roles and titles of his family members to ensure a smooth transition of power.
