They need to be seen hob nobbing with the royals. Hey we're still royal dont ya know. Pathetic.
Is the world supposed to collective wake up with insomnia and forget that Harry is the queen's grandson, the future king' son, the future, future king's brother or something?
They have every right to use thee titles, just as much as other aristos. Duke of Marlborough - the drug addict with a long police record.
Earl of Strathmore - queen's cousin pleaded guilty to sexual assault
A slew of useless, profit making titled :
Viscounts Rothermere and his brother Viscount Hamsworth - owners of DM. Do not pay taxes in the UK, making money and telling you what to think all the while 'French resident'.
Duke of Bedford - just died but tilted going to son. Made lucrative deals in the name of titles and is super rich.
Duke of Westminster - the richest man in London almost all the freeholds around central London. Passed on from his forefathers making profits on titles.
Duke of Beaufort - 350M worth rock star
Duke of Richmond - high society star.
Then you have the family titles which you all know are literary trading on name(but have the handy amnesia kick in when convenient). Like the Michaels.
And no, it's immaterial that H&M are overseas. Just like their cousins keep their titles like Freddy in the US, and as I said before Viscount Rothermere lives in France and pays tax in offshore haven Cayman Islands.
