Meghan Markle to get a UK citizenshi­p

-

The 36-year-old actress announced she was taking her romance with her 33-year-old beau to the next step earlier this week, and as the couple’s wedding ceremony at Windsor Castle next year is fast approachin­g, Meghan intends to secure a dual nationalit­y as a UK and US citizen. However, a spokespers­on for the former ‘Suits’ star thinks it is “too early to say” whether Meghan will be granted the dual nationalit­y. And even if Meghan is granted both, the process to become a UK citizen is believed to be a painstakin­gly long process, which is believed to take a number of years to confirm, CNN has reported. But that is not the only new title Meghan is set to land herself, as she is rumoured to be given named the Duchess of Sussex once her and her fiancÈ are married. And to stick with tradition in the UK, Harry is also expected to be handed a new moniker on his wedding day, with the Duke of Sussex regarded as the most likely choice, although the alternativ­es include the likes of Clarence, Connaught, Windsor, Albany, and Cumberland. However, many of those names have an inauspicio­us history, meaning Sussex is now rumoured to be the favoured option for the grandson of Queen Elizabeth II. Speaking previously about Meghan and Harry’s potential future titles, Charles Kidd - who is the editor of Debrett’s Peerage & Baronetage - said: “They’re quite limited in the titles that are available. The Duke of Sussex is the front-runner without any doubt.” But in the unlikely event that Harry opts to decline the offer of a title, Meghan would be known as HRH Princess Henry of Wales - a moniker derived by Harry’s actual name.
