With the Marriage Act taking place March 29, in Great Britain, civil servants are rushing to amend over 700 years of laws regarding marriage.
Not least of which, is the title of Queen.
In order to stop any confusion, legal experts have said the exercise
is to “tidy up” the law, and clarify regulations on awarding courtesy
and royal titles.
The new regulations will specify that despite the equalization of
legal marriage rights for gay and straight couples, the same legal
rights do not apply to anyone ”who marries, or who is married to, the
King Regnant, to the title of Queen”.
It also specifies that if in the future, a Prince of Wales married a
man, his husband would not inherit the title Princess of Wales.
