Royal Family News: Charlotte Is Only A ‘Princess’ Because The Queen Pulled Strings And Played Favorites?

British royal family news shows that 95-year old Queen Elizabeth is celebrating her Platinum Jubilee this year. The festive occasion marks seven decades as the UK’s monarch and she is held in the highest esteem by Brits. She is fierce defender of the realm and a most loyal family member. According to one royal insider, it was Her Majesty who personally intervened into a matter involving her great-granddaughter, the only daughter of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

According to the source, the queen ensured that Charlotte was given the title of Princess and not the lesser title of Lady, as reported by Express UK.

Royal Family News – The Queen Is Loyal

According to a royal historian Marlene Koenig Queen Elizabeth, “issued a new Letters Patent that called for all Cambridge children to be a Prince or Princess.” Prior to this the Letters Patent of 1917, issued by King George V, “meant that Princess Charlotte wouldn’t have been given the title of a Princess upon her birth, and would instead be called ‘Lady Charlotte.’

Looking to rectify this situation, the queen interceded when Kate, the Duchess of Cambridge, was pregnant with her first child. Prince George is Kate and William’s firstborn, and Prince Louis is their third child. Because of the queen, Charlotte is on an equal footing with her brothers, title wise.

Princess Charlotte May Have Been a Lady

According to Koenig, “If Charlotte had been born first under the 1917 Letters Patent, because she was a great-granddaughter in the male line, and only the eldest son of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales was entitled to be HRH… then she would have been The Lady Charlotte Mountbatten-Windsor. So, the Queen fixed that little issue.”

The queen’s loyalty to family is unquestionable. As she showed with Charlotte, she is always looking out for her own. However, that same tendency has earned her scorn as well as favor. This week was her late husband Philip’s memorial service at Westminster Abbey. Her choice of escort was her son (and rumored favorite child) Prince Andrew. The issue here is that he just paid off a woman who last August brought a sexual abuse lawsuit against him. While the queen is loyal to the core, the public is not as forgiving.
