Buckingham Palace announces further change to Andrew Mountbatten Windsor title

Andrew Mountbatten Windsor title to be changed by palace: update

A new title aligns with Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, and his name is about to be changed once again, according to Express UK.

This update comes days after he was stripped of his title as prince, as well as his dukedom and military honors, and became known as Andrew Mountbatten Windsor.

This change follows a previous order from Queen Elizabeth II for all “descendants other than descendants enjoying the style, title or attribute of Royal Highness and the titular dignity of prince or princess and female descendants who marry and their descendants”.

The change in question will be added between the names Mountbatten and Windsor, which was done in the 1960s to incorporate Prince Philip’s name “Mountbatton” into the “Windsor” line.

Known from then on as the Mountbatten-Windsor line, the Queen shared the news in a formal notice to the London Gazette and said: “Now therefore I declare my will and pleasure that while I and my children shall continue to be called and known by the name of the house and family of Windsor.”

This would include “My descendants other than descendants enjoying the style, title or attribute of Royal Highness and the titular dignity of prince or princess and female descendants who marry and their descendants will bear the name Mountbatten-Windsor.”
