But Princess Royal did attend 1953 Coronation. She was unwell at 1947 wedding.

It can be even more intersesting to nete that before 1891 they were not only Princes and Princesses but alsa had style of HRH. And if one can say they were princes/ses of SCG, nobody can say they were SCG HRH because SCG were merely Highnesses. I suppose it was just custom that children of king...

I am just modest Russian lawyer and it is possible the in Belgien law patrnity is something another... As for me the paternity is not marriage, it have not start and finish. It is very possible the fact that her previously recognized legal father was Jacques Boël is important for some...

Yes, I read all messages in this thread. I'm sorry, but it is not the original meaning, it is your interpretation I disagree with. We are not experts in Belgian law but I think that Her Royal Highness was born as daughter of heк present father :) And as daughter she was HRH by virtue of 1891...

Exactly. But in registrary office not via court. AFAIK applicant was Delphine, she won her surname and the court decision can not affect another persons and their surnames.

She was his legal daughter and she has her titles since her birth. Legally the court just recognize this.

She was recognized as the legal daughter of Albert II and as his legal daughter she was recognized as the person who have the title of Princess of Belgium and HRH because royal decrees have no exception for borned out of wedlock.

But de Saxe-Cobourg is not paternal surname of Princess Josephine or Prince Oscar!

I know. You invented the title "prince/ss of Nowhere". I think Delphine was born HRH and Princess of Belgium by Art.1 of 1891 Decree. I am sure in 1991 and in 2015 new decrees used old version as its basis. I think that all this "mariage avec notre Fils bien-aimé" is only old time phrases...

Oh, God! Article 1-3: "some descendants of Leopold I IS princes(ses) of Belgium". Article 4: "other descendants of Leopold I IS NOT princes(ses) of Belgium".

I have new idea. What if since 2015 decree the new princes will be HRH Name Surname, Prince of Belgium instead of HRH Prince Name, Prince of Belgium ? While Laurent remained his style as HRH Prince Laurent, Prince of Belgium, Delphine's style is HRH Delphine de Saxe-Cobourg, Princess of Belgium.

à l’exception des enfants/petit-enfant d’Astrid et Lorenz :) I mean with exception of Delphine and her children. In condition of original titles usege. And children of Maria Laura will not be Archdukes. Sorry, but I can not find your answer. My question is simple. HRH Princess Delphine...

I suppose the court just applied 1891 and 1991 decrees to Delphine and her children.

Exactly. But Delphine (her lawyers) say she pretend in equality in all matters. So if Laurent is royal and does not use a surname then why Delphine use surname in the day of her victory?
