Queen Will Likely Offer Princess Eugenie's Husband-To-Be A Title, Expert Says

Queen Elizabeth II may offer a royal title to Princess Eugenie's future husband, Jack Brooksbank.

Earlier reports suggest that Brooksbank will remain a commoner following his royal wedding to Princess Eugenie. Some stated that he is unlikely to have a royal title. However, according to one expert, the queen may offer him an Earldom.

"Eugenie and her sister Beatrice are styled as Princesses and so it wouldn't be unusual if The Queen offered Jack a title - most likely an Earldom," James Brookes told Express.

"Of course, it's down to personal choice as to whether he accepts it," Brookes continued. "Princess Anne's first husband Mark Phillips turned down a title it's thought, hence why Zara and Peter don't have one of their own."

Brookes added that if Brooksbank will accept the title, it can be passed on to their children. So, Princess Eugenie mini-me's will have subsidiary titles.

"If Jack was to accept a title - an Earldom, for example’s sake - he would likely be known as The Right Honourable The Earl of […]," the expert added. "Any children the couple have would take on subsidiary titles, a son known as Viscount and daughter, Lady. As is custom, we’ll likely find out on the morning of the wedding as to whether any titles have been granted/accepted"

However, Marlene Eilers Koenig believed otherwise. According to her, Princess Eugenie's future spouse is unlikely to receive any title from the Queen.

"Jack will not be getting any title from the Queen," Koenig said. The precedent was set by Princess Alexandra and the Hon. Mr. Angus Ogilvy in 1963. He turned down an earldom. Princess Anne and Mark Phillips also turned down an earldom from the Queen in 1973."

On the other hand, according to Charlotte Griffith of Daily Mail, "Eugenie couldn't care less about the titles and is perfectly happy to be Mrs. Brooksbank."

Princess Eugenie and Brooksbank are already busy with their wedding preparation. According to an insider, the Duchess of York is "very involved" in the planning.

Although "it is very much Princess Eugenie and Jack's day, and they are leading the planning, Fergie is very involved," a source told People.
