KONINKLIJKE GEBOORTE

Britse troonsopvolging

May 19, 2018 - Prins Harry, kleinzoon van koningin Elizabeth II, gaat trouwen met de Amerikaanse actrice Meghan Markle. Meghan, die vóór haar huwelijk in de Church of England werd gedoopt, zal Brits staatsburger worden.

At the time of his wedding Prince Harry will be sixth in the line of succession to the British throne, and had to obtain permission from the Queen to marry under the Succession to the Crown Act 2013.

By tradition, male members of the Royal family receive a title from the monarch on their wedding day. The vacant title Duke of Sussex is regarded as the most likely choice for the Prince, meaning Meghan would become HRH The Duchess of Sussex.
