Kate not to become princess!

[Hecktix]

He still has the prince william. His new title is "Prince William, Duke of Cambridge". Or if you want to be formal "His Royal Highness Prince William Arthur Philip Louis, Duke of Cambridge, Earl of Strathearn, Baron Carrickfergus, Royal Knight Companion of the Most Noble Order of the Garter, Master of Arts"

I wonder if the media will still call her Kate Middleton?

Yes but his predominant title is no longer Prince William of Wales, it's Prince William, Duke of Cambridge blah baah etc.

I imagine the media will call her "Princess Kate" or "Princess Catherine" (albeit incorrect) or the Duchess of Cambridge.

Duke/duchess is higher ranking than prince/princess anyway. Princess is just more romantic and fairytale sounding.

As wife to Prince William, she is Princess William as she takes on his title, as in any marriage. Technically Camilla is Princess Charles blah blah blah blah. Obviously, Camilla isn't Princess of Wales for certain reasons, however Kate can't be known under the "Princess" title until William is the direct heir to the throne, but she is in terms of the Royal family itself, a princess.

Camilla is a Princess actually, however she does not use that title to avoid getting confused with Diana. Her full title is

Her Royal Highness The Princess Charles Philip Arthur George, Princess of Wales and Countess of Chester, Duchess of Cornwall, Duchess of Rothesay, Countess of Carrick, Baroness of Renfrew, Lady of the Isles, Princess of Scotland

She is a princess (Catherine )as many have said before due to her taking his name aswell. So congrats to them!

What a great event may I add, it shows our country and its history off at best with billions from across the former Empire and the world in general watching, I wish the royal couple well.

Always nice to see a positive post from you in the "Current Affairs" section, that the majority of us can agree with, Dan. Makes a change from you trying to bash the government and plug UKIP

Proud day to be British. Today's been good.

It was an amazing day, not just watching the Royal Couple, but for the way the British greeted the world with open arms down on the Mall and in other areas of the country. It was great seeing the British doing what they do best

I never watched the wedding as I was either sleeping or in class and I don't know anything about the Royal family, really, but I hear it was quite graceful from the people who did see it.

Graceful is a mahoooosive understatement.
