Was Wallis allowed to share Edward's style of "Royal Highness"?

  • Yes

  • No

  • Only in private

  • On special occasions

Answer

The answer is no. Although Wallis was given the title of Duchess of Windsor, she was never given the title of "Royal Highness". This was because the British royal family did not approve of Wallis's marriage to Edward. The royal family believed that Wallis was a bad influence on Edward and that she had caused him to give up his throne.
