The Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge has reacted to her new royal title of the Princess of Wales as she "appreciates the history associated with this role," according to royal source.
During his first address to the nation, following the death of his mother Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles III announced that his daughter in law Kate, would inherit the Princess of Wales title, with William becoming Prince of Wales. Kate, 40, will become the first person to use the title since William's mother, the late Princess Diana.
He 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.
