Question about titles

[ronald biver]

Princess Martha Louise can NOT have it both ways to keep the title of princess & being the wife of a charlatan healer!!!!!.

 

[Tatiana Maria]

She may retire from public life entirely, but I suppose M-M would still be Queen when Haakon became King, because that is the title of the King’s wife. They would have to divorce for her to cease being the Queen.

The King is the authority over the title of his wife, but I too expect Haakon would allow his wife to remain titular Queen even if - hypothetically - she needed to permanently retire due to scandal. As seen with Marius (always untitled and recently stripped of his official membership in the Royal Family), simply removing formal status does not appease public outrage when a close family member of the King is involved, so she may as well keep it. (That is the same reason why I do not think stripping Princess Märtha Louise of her title would accomplish much.)
