The Prince of Wales has a number of titles, and one of them has an tragic and unlucky past which could one day be inherited by his sons' Prince George or Prince Louis
Members of the Royal Family have hugely important official titles and styles that date back centuries, and it is no different today - whether you are talking about the Prince of Wales, the Princess Royal, the Duke of Gloucester or the Earl of Wessex. For example, The King's full and official title is: Charles III, by the Grace of God, of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland and of his other realms and territories King, Head of the Commonwealth, Defender of the Faith.
The Dukedom of Cambridge was first created during King Charles II's reign in 1660 and Prince William is the eighth person to hold the title. The position is marred by sadness as within 17 years of the title's first creation, there had been four different holders owing to various tragedies. The title was not used again until 1706 when Queen Anne made the future King George II the fifth Duke of Cambridge. The title was then reissued by King George III to his seventh son, Prince Adolphus. It then passed to the prince's son, Prince George and became extinct after his death as his marriage had violated The Royal Marriages Act of 1772.
