What if the Prince and Duchess adopt a child?
The Duchess's hysterechtomy(sp?) got me thinking about this. I find it sad that this lovely couple never had the oppurtunity to have a child together. Since it is impossible to have one biologically, I think it would be a dream if they would adopt a child together. I realize that their age in life makes it unlikely, since they no doubt feel they don't have the energy or time for child rearing anymore! At the same time, they have so much money and staff to help out, so what if....? Does anyone think they might do it? What might they name such a child and what/how would the child be called, styled?
I know an adopted child cannot be in the line of succession or have a HRH Prince/Princess title. Would the surname be Windsor or Mountbatten-Windsor?
