Talk:Prince Henry, Duke of Gloucester

message: The description says that the label for difference bears a lion rampant on the centre point, but the illustration seems to show a lion passant guardant. Which is correct? Opera hat (talk) 12:32, 19 June 2008 (UTC)

message: Did the Duke of Gloucester not get injured in a road crash - in the late 60s?  Or am I, poor deluded fool, mixing him up with someone else?  If I remember right, he was never seen in public afterwards, and his death was at least partly consequent on the injuries, albeit some years later.  One thread elsewhere indicates that the Duke was 'diagnosed with porphyria', but I 'think' I remember the car crash, and remarking on not seing him ever again in public.  
This link http://www.theroyalforums.com/forums/f23/prince-william-of-gloucester-1941-1972-a-11354.html suggests that he had a stroke or strokes, and had been very badly affected by them - 'basically a vegetable' towards the end of his life.   21:00 15 February 2009 UTC  Railtracksurvivor.
:The road accident referred to occurred in 1965, en route home from funeral of Sir Winston Churchill (at which he was present as a Royal Family mourner).  (Mentioned in Dictionary of National Biography.)Cloptonson (talk) 21:56, 8 June 2012 (UTC)

message: "Also at the time of his death in 1974, he was the longest surviving child of George V and Mary of Teck.
That kind of depends on your definition of "longest-surviving". He died after Edward VIII, but at a younger age. Tad Lincoln (talk) 08:56, 6 June 2011 (UTC)

message: The article lists Henry as the Prince of Wales from 1901 to 1910. I believe his father, the later King George, was the actual holder of that title until he became king in 1910, at which point Henry's brother Edward was made Prince of Wales --Jimbosasto (talk) 09:42, 12 June 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it lists him as "Prince Henry of Wales", the usual title for the son of the Prince of Wales.  His father was at that time "George, Prince of Wales".  Not the most brilliantly designed terminology, but that's how it is. Favonian (talk) 20:59, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

text: The weird appearance was due to the spaces you had typed at the beginning of the lines.  I've removed them. Favonian (talk) 20:59, 14 June 2011 (UTC)

message: Just a note that Prince Henry (or rather, the picture of him at Eton as a schoolboy) will be appearing in the Did you know? section of the main page in about fifteen minutes and for about eight hours (illustrating the DYK hook on Anthony Chenevix-Trench). --Demiurge1000 (talk) 23:41, 28 February 2013 (UTC)

message: You say that his last public appearance was in 1967. The Wiki page 'Wedding of Princess Anne and Mark Philips' names the Duke as one of the guests at that wedding in 1973. And I seem to remember watching him in uniform at that event, almost collapsing and having to be propped-up. You may like to check. Valetude (talk) 22:53, 15 April 2015 (UTC)

message: You say he went up to Cambridge in 1919, and stayed one year. You also say he went to Sandhurst in 1919. Can both be correct? Valetude (talk) 18:10, 10 May 2017 (UTC)

message: The Queen would not have come of age when she was 18 in 1944. At that time the age of majority was 21. This did not change to 18 until the Family Law Reform Act 1969
CHAPTER 46, enacted in 1970, (https://www.legislation.gov.uk/ukpga/1969/46) so the Queen would have come of age in April 1947, not in 1944.

replies: text: The relevant legislation is the Regency Act 1937 which provided for a regency if Elizabeth was below the age of 18 on accession. If she was over 18, she acceded immediately without a regency. Celia Homeford (talk) 10:01, 4 May 2018 (UTC)
