Speculation Mounts as Prince Harry Reportedly Prepares to Propose to Meghan Markle

Rumors are swirling that Prince Harry, the 32-year-old royal, is gearing up to pop the question to his American actress girlfriend, Meghan Markle.

The couple, who have been dating since last year, seem absolutely smitten with each other.

Their romance was officially confirmed in November, leaving fans eager for what the future holds.

Despite the anticipation of a royal wedding, it is important to note that even if the 36-year-old Meghan and Harry do tie the knot, she will not be able to be referred to as Princess Meghan.

This restriction is rooted in the strict royal protocol dictating who can hold the titles of Prince and Princess.

Only individuals of royal lineage are entitled to use the title of Princess or Prince followed by their first name.

Meghan finds herself subject to the same regulations that have previously prevented Kate Middleton, the wife of Harry's brother William, from being known as Princess Kate.

Nevertheless, it is widely speculated that should Meghan and Harry exchange vows, they will likely receive a dukedom.

The title of Duke and Duchess of Sussex has been suggested as a probable choice for the couple.

Should the couple opt for something different, alternative titles such as Duke and Duchess of Clarendon and Buckingham are also reportedly available.

This arrangement mirrors the official titles of Prince William and Kate, who are recognized as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
