The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are set to welcome their first child into the world in the coming months and we are rather excited about the arrival of Baby Sussex.
We have yet to find out what name the doting pair will pick for their first born. Many believe they'll honour the Princess of Wales by naming their baby Diana or Prince Philip if it is a boy.
Many people are curious to know if the future royal will have the same titles as his or her cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte and Prince Louis.
It would be natural to assume that they would; Prince Harry is currently sixth-in-line to the throne, but apparently, this doesn't make a difference.
In fact, only Kate and William's kids will have those titles. Meghan and Harry's children will have Lord or Lady titles, with the exception of their oldest son, who will be an Earl.
This is because of George V, the great-great-grandfather of Prince Harry, who limited prince and princess titles within the British royal family in 1917. "The grandchildren of the sons of any such Sovereign in the direct male line (save only the eldest living son of the eldest son of the Prince of Wales) shall have and enjoy in all occasions the style and title enjoyed by the children of Dukes of these Our Realms," he decreed.
Harry and Meghan's oldest son would have the title Earl of Dumbarton, a title given to Harry on his wedding day. Their daughters would be Lady (First Name) Mountbatten-Windsor, and any younger sons Lord (First Name) Mountbatten-Windsor.
However, the Queen could reverse this and allow Meghan and Harry's kids to have prince and princess titles; she did change the rules slightly to allow all of Kate and William's children, not just Prince George, their oldest, to have HRH titles.
Reports say that Meghan and Harry are completely fine with this, as they want their child to live as normal a life as possible, away from intense media speculation.
