The most important, that of the new king: his son Charles of England, becomes the King Charles III And his wife, Camilla Parker–Bowlesbecomes the queen consort, as Elizabeth II wanted.

The Duchy of Cornwall, until now the property of Charles and Camilla, has passed to William of England y Kate Middleton. Likewise, Guillermo has the title of Prince of Wales. However, it will not be until the coronation of his father takes place when it becomes official.

One of the most significant title changes will be that of the sons of Harry y Meghan. Archiethree years old, and Lilibeth, of one, they are now prince and princess. This is stipulated in the protocols established by the king George Vgrandfather of Queen Elizabeth II: the children and grandchildren of a sovereign have the automatic right to the title of prince or princess.




During that famous interview of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex with Oprah WinfreyMeghan expressed her concern that Archie did not have police protection since she considered that they denied him the title of prince “for racial reasons” (a title that the children of the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge have since they were born).




However, everything is due to these protocols, so only the eldest son of Guillermo and Kate, George, as the great-grandson of the monarch in the direct line of succession to the throne, he was originally entitled to be a prince. But his brothers, Charlotte y Louisalso assumed the title by a patent signed by the queen on December 31, 2012.




Unless Carlos III so decides, no other member of the family will change their titles. However, the British media suggest that the Duke of Wessex, Eduardoalso assume the Duchy of Edinburgh, a title held by his father Philip until his death in April 2021.
