So as far as I can tell, there's nothing to date in the Gazette about the letters patent.
Maybe they haven't been prepared yet or maybe they have and haven't been gazetted. Maybe they will never be gazetted; which would beg the question why?
Perhaps they are trying to avoid controversy due to an unusual remainder other than to heirs male of the body lawfully begotten. I'm wondering if they've done something like that of the Duke of Fife or Earl Mountbatten so daughters could inherit. Or maybe they've done the full "to the heirs of the body lawfully begotten".
Does anyone know if that last example has ever been done for a peerage?
The lack of a gazette notice is making me a little curious.
Okay, forgive me for quoting my own post; it saved me having to re-state everything.
Am I the only one who believes it is now passing strange that there has been no Gazette notice of the Letters Patent conferring the Dukedom of Sussex on Prince Harry?
