After Elizabeth’s death, her children may use HRH titles


Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, the son of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, is apparently now legally a prince as a result of Queen Elizabeth’s death.

After Her Majesty’s passing, his younger sister, Lilibet “Lili” Mountbatten-Windsor, who was given the late British monarch’s childhood nickname, is also said to be eligible to become a princess.

According to guidelines established by King George V in 1917, Archie and Lili, as the offspring of a sovereign’s son, are entitled to an HRH style if they so desire.

It follows the Sussexes, Prince Harry, 37, and Duchess Meghan, 41, who ceased using their distinctive HRH styles after quitting their jobs as senior working royals to live in America.

The first Prince of Sussex in history is 3-year-old Archie, and the first Princess of Sussex is 1-year-old Lili.

The assertion about their HRH titles comes amid a significant reorganisation in the UK throne’s line of succession after the passing of Queen Elizbeth, 96, on Thursday at her residence in Balmoral.

Following the coronation of his father as King Charles III, the Duke of Cambridge is anticipated to take the title of Prince of Wales.

Upon Prince Charles’ succession following the death of the Queen, Prince William, 40, is now the heir apparent to the British monarchy.

The Duchess of Cambridge, a 40-year-old royal wife, will also adopt the new title of Princess of Wales.

The next three in line after William are his three children, Prince George, 9, Princess Charlotte, 7, and Prince Louis, 4 years old. William is the eldest of the top eight royals.

The Duke of Sussex and his two young children, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1 year old, come next, then Prince Andrew and his two daughters, Princesses Beatrice and Eugenie of York.

The change is anticipated since Charles does not really own the title of Prince of Wales; rather, it is given to the heir apparent, who relinquishes it upon becoming king.
