Best Answer

The heir to the English throne. ---- Actually, the Prince of Wales is the usual title of the heir to the throne of the United Kingdom (which includes England, Wales, Cornwall, and Scotland.) The only women to have born the title Princess of Wales have been the wives of a Prince of Wales. When it became clear that the then Princess Elizabeth would become Queen after her father's death, some of his advisors suggested that the king create Elizabeth Princess of Wales. The king refused, saying that that title was reserved for the wife of the heir, not for the heiress. So H.R.H. the Princess Elizabeth she remained until her marriage to H.R.H the duke of Edinburgh, at which time she became H.R.H. the duchess of Edinburgh.
