what is prince edward's title
First was the announcement that Edward had been created Earl of Wessex â a romantic title for sure, but not the Dukedom that was expected. Then came the news that he would one day succeed to his fatherâs title of Duke of Edinburgh, something that has caused mental somersaults for title fans ever since.or that day, 19 th of June 1999, was not just one of the first really nice days of the year â it was the wedding of Prince Edward, the Queenâs youngest son to the beautiful and charming Sophie Rhys-Jones.
