The princess is obviously in a higher rank of any hierarchy no matter what age because she is the daughter of the king. However, the duchess is lower than the princess because she is not considered royalty.
a Duches cannot be in line to the throne unless the princess passes away of natural causes. A princess is the direct line to the throne.
The reason she is Duchess Catherine of Cambridge and not Princess Catherine is because she is not royal. Technically she is a Princess she is just Princess William Arthur Phillip Louis not Princess Cathrine Elizabeth.
Princess and Duchess
No, but at the time of her birth her mother was a Duchess by marriage.
The newly-weds, Prince William and Princess Catherine, are the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge
Neither. She is the Duchess of Cambridge.
No. She is Duchess of Cornwall.
Legally Camilla, Duchess Of Cornwall(As wife of he Prince Of Wales)is entitled to the style " HRH Princess Of Wales" However due to public feeling and out of consideration to the memory of the late Diana, Princess Of Wales she uses the title "HRH Duchess Of Cornwall" and "HRH duchess Of Rothesay" Bacicaly Meera!!
No she is not because they are not royalty. Technically Kate Middleton is not a Princess either. Her official title is HRH Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge.
Lady Di's titles as a royal were : Her Royal Highness The Princess Charles Philip Arthur George, Princess of Wales & Countess of Chester, Duchess of Cornwall, Duchess of Rothesay, Countess of Carrick, Baroness of Renfrew, Lady of the Isles, Princess of Scotland
The Duchess of Cambridge's dress was designed by Sarah Burton, the principal designer at the House of Alexander McQueen. Also, may I point out that Catherine's title is NOT Princess Catherine. She can be called either Princess William of Wales OR The Duchess of Cambridge.
A Grand Duchess of Russia is the equivalent to a Princess in England, or much of Europe, such as a tzar (or czar) of Russia is the equivalent of a King or Emperor.
