I live in metro Atlanta, GA, USA and am the mother of a US Marine who has recently been deployed to Iraq (his third tour overseas). I enjoy reading/writing(action/adventure, historical romance, science-fiction), watching tv, movies (same genres), surfing the internet, spending time with family and friends, history & geography and genealogy. I'm a long time fan of Days of Our Lives & General Hospital and have just begun watching One Life to Live. I also watch Burn Notice, In Plain Sight, CSI: Miami, Law & Order: SVU, and reruns of the classics (M*A*S*H, Friends, JAG, Hogans Heroes, etc.).
RE: British Royal Family question?
Now that we have a royal baby (ies) on the way, this question seems natural to ask. Who do you think would be named as Regent if, God forbid, anything were to happen to Prince William after he became King? I'm guessing Prince Harry would be named as Regent but I'm wondering what, if any, criteria needs to be met? Does anyone know?
4 AnswersRoyalty8 years agoHas anyone read this article about their titles?
Just found this article about the Duke and Duchess' new titles. Interesting.
The world of the British monarchy is complex. Filled with long-standing traditions and regulations, navigating the roles of the Windsor family is like reading a book of chess instructions. He's the abridged version of Kate Middleton's future of royal stylings:
Though the only title Middleton will be legally entitled to is that of her husband, it will be for the Queen to decide who gets what. Upon marriage, Middleton would become Her Royal Highness Princess William of Wales, though the media would shorten her title to Princess Catherine, a title legally reserved for princesses of birth.
Normally upon marriage, royal men receive a title as a gift from the current monarch. For William, it's expected that he'll become a Duke. According to The Daily Mirror, possible titles include the Duke of Clarence, Duke of Cambridge, Duke of Connaught or the Duke of Sussex. Upon his Dukedom, William's wife would become a Duchess, unless of course William doesn't accept the title, which would leave the couple's titles as Prince and Princess William.
If Prince Charles takes the throne as king, William would be bumped up to the title of Prince of Wales, making Middleton the Princess of Wales, a title that now belongs to Camilla Bowles, who has never used it because of the sensitivity to her involvement in the divorce of Prince Charles and Princess Diana. Instead, she uses the title Duchess of Cornwall, which would also pass to Middleton if Prince Charles were to become king. It's widely hinted that Camilla would then take the title of Princess Consort, instead of Queen, to avoid public scrutiny. Still, Charles may choose to pass on the throne entirely, and let it pass directly to William if the Queen's current reign carries on for many more years – as it could.
4 AnswersRoyalty1 decade agoOn his accension to the throne, what name do you think William will take?
I have heard that Prince Charles is likely to change his name so I was wondering if Prince William will too.
14 AnswersRoyalty1 decade agoOnce Prince Charles ascends the throne, what will Camilla's title be?
We've talked about what Prince William & Kate (oops, Catherine) will be called but what about Camilla? What will her title and style be?

The folks in Port Charles haven't been to a wedding (not the non-wedding that Spinelli & Maxie had, or didn't have) since Scrubs got married last year. Who do you think will be the next couple to make it down the aisle and actually say "I do"? I'm hoping for a Lulu/Dante wedding soon. I don't think Elizabeth and Lucky will make it. Any ideas?
