The soon to be Princess of Wales has reacted after King Charles announced her new royal title. The Duchess of Cambridge, who is the first person to use it since the late Princess Diana, said she "appreciates the history associated with this role".
Giving his first speech since the death of Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles said: "As my Heir, William now assumes the Scottish titles which have meant so much to me. He succeeds me as Duke of Cornwall and takes on the responsibilities for the Duchy of Cornwall which I have undertaken for more than five decades. Today, I am proud to create him Prince of Wales, Tywysog Cymru, the country whose title I have been so greatly privileged to bear during so much of my life and duty.
"With Catherine beside him, our new Prince and Princess of Wales will, I know, continue to inspire and lead our national conversations, helping to bring the marginal to the centre ground where vital help can be given."
