If you're asking specifically about Edward's children, it's because he and his wife didn't want them to.

The sovereign issues letters patent specifying who does and does not get the "royal highness" title. Edward's children would have qualified under the current rules, but he wanted them to get the titles that would be given to the children of an Earl instead.
