Prince William and Kate's children inherit new titles as Charles becomes King following Queen’s death

Members of the Royal Family will be given new titles following the death of the Queen, at the age of 96. Prince Charles has now become King Charles III and is set to address the nation tonight (Friday).

However, William and Kate won’t be losing their Duke and Duchess of Cambridge titles - these new titles will be additions. This means they are now styled the TRH The Duke and Duchess of Cornwall and Cambridge, reports Express.

The Cambridge children - Prince George, Prince Louis and Princess Charlotte - have become Prince George of Cornwall and Cambridge, Princess Charlotte of Cornwall and Cambridge, and Prince Louis of Cornwall and Cambridge.

On Thursday, Prince William paid a visit to Balmoral while Kate stayed at Windsor.

King Charles' eldest son, William, now becomes the heir apparent as first in line to the throne and the children will eventually become “of Wales” once their father Prince William is the Prince of Wales, if his father chooses to bestow that on him.

George is now second in line to the throne, Charlotte third, and Louis fourth, with Harry fifth in line.
