Meghan and Kate weren’t granted titled. Their husbands were.TALK OF THE TOWN: Princess Eugenie's fiance Jack Brooksbank will remain a 'commoner' | Daily Mail Online
Too bad.
That means their children will not have titles.
It doesn't seem quite fair either.
Meghan and Kate were both granted titles when they married a royal. (I know it's different because they are working royals, but still, it does seem unfair).
As for giving Jack a title, I don’t see why? Meghan and Kate will both be working for the Firm alongside their husbands, so it’s how they will be addressed in their official capacity. Does Jack plan on using Lord Jack in his liquor distribution business? If you want to look at it another way, Jack can continue to be in a career that seeks personal profit while Meghan and Kate can’t. You give and take in life.
And really, Jack and Meghan and Kate aren’t fair comparisons. Even Anne is a different situation as she was child of a monarch when she married. Given that her ex-husband and husband aren’t titled, there is no reason to even offer it to Eugenie and Jack. I don’t believe it’s customary to issue new titles upon grandchild of a monarch not in the heir’s line. Prince Michael remains prince Michael with no peerage. His wife would be the comparison here. And for whatever reason, I can’t see Jack wanting to be Prince Eugenie. Princess Alexandra’s husband also went without a title even though he’s the younger son of an Earl.
