Princess Charlotte looks set to be handed one of the most senior titles in the Royal Family in an emotional tribute to the Queen. King Charles has not yet made his younger brother Prince Edward the Duke of Edinburgh. Now it has been claimed that the title will be passed on to Princess Charlotte in order to keep the title in the direct line of succession.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A source said: \u201cDiscussions are underway, but the favored outcome for the King is that this title ought to go to Princess Charlotte.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt would be a fitting way to remember the Queen \u2013 who, of course, had the title Duchess of Edinburgh \u2013 and a way for His Majesty to honor the line of succession.\u201d<\/p>\n

As the second child to Prince William, Princess Charlotte is the third in the line of succession after her older brother, Prince George.<\/p>\n

Princess Charlotte’s line in the succession is unique because the laws of royal inheritance changed when the Princess of Wales was expecting her first child in order to allow women to hold the same primogeniture rights as men in the royal family.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

A source told the Mail on Sunday: \u201cCharlotte’s position is historically significant because she is the first female member of the Royal Family whose place in the line of succession will not be surpassed by her younger brother.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo it is constitutionally significant that Charlotte should be given such a corresponding title, because it is not beyond the realms of possibility that she will accede the throne if, for example, Prince George does not have children.\u201d<\/p>\n

It was thought that the Countess of Wessex would be honored with the Duchess of Edinburgh title if Prince Edward became the Duke of Edinburgh, inheriting the title from his late father.<\/p>\n

The title of Duchess of Edinburgh has not been used since Queen Elizabeth II acceded the throne in 1952, she had held the Duchess title since 1947.<\/p>\n

Upon the death of his mother, King Charles III inherited his father’s title but upon becoming King the title is now open to be given to one of his brothers which is the King’s decision.<\/p>\n

However, it was previously reported that Prince Philip had expressed his wish for his youngest son to inherit his title, and Charles reportedly agreed to ensure this happened.<\/p>\n

Buckingham Palace is now said to be holding discussions over if Prince Edward will receive a Duke title.<\/p>\n

King Charles wishes to have a more progressive and modern monarchy in order to cut down spending on the Royal Family.<\/p>\n

A royal insider said: \u201cIt shows you what the King is thinking. It’s about promoting those directly in line to the throne rather than those on the edges.\u201d<\/p>\n

Prince Edward and Sophie are thought to be \u201crelaxed\u201d about titles.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
