Who will inherit the title of Duke of Edinburgh after the death of Prince Philip
The British royal family said goodbye to Prince Philip, Duke of Edinburgh, at the age of XNUMX, at a solemn royal funeral at Windsor Castle.
Who will inherit the title of Duke of Edinburgh after his death?
The current Duke of Edinburgh is Charles, Prince of Wales, and he inherited the title when Philip died on April 9, 2021.
But because Charles would ascend the throne and become king of the United Kingdom and the Commonwealth, he would no longer be a Duke, and thus would go to his brother Edward.
Thus, the title of Duke of Edinburgh will be inherited by the youngest son of Philip and the Queen, Prince Edward, when Charles ascends the throne.
