In his first televised address to the nation since the death of the Queen, King Charles III confirmed his son Prince William would inherit his title of the Prince of Wales and his wife Kate would become Princess.
The King said: 'Today, I am proud to create [William] Prince of Wales, Tywysog Cymru, the country whose title I have been so greatly privileged to bear during so much of my life and duty.
'With Catherine beside him, our new Prince and Princess of Wales will, I know, continue to inspire and lead our national conversations, helping to bring the marginal to the centre ground where vital help can be given.'
Since the 14th century the title of the Princess of Wales has been used by the wives of the Princes of Wales. However, it is a courtesy title.
Technically, Charles's wife, Camilla Parker-Bowles, has been the Princess of Wales until now, but she has used the feminine equivalent of Charles's Duke of Cornwall title, the Duchess of Cornwall.
The Duchess of Cornwall is thought to not use the Princess of Wales title out of respect for Charles's ex-wife Princess Diana, who died in Paris in August 1997.
Among the younger royals, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's infant children will become Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
In his speech, the new King paid tribute to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex saying he wanted to 'express my love for Harry and Meghan as they continue to build their lives overseas.'
As the King continued his address, he paid tribute to his 'darling wife', the former Duchess of Cornwall and now Queen Consort Camilla, for her support.
In a touching tribute to his late mother, Queen Elizabeth II, the King said: 'As you begin your last great journey to join my dear late Papa, I want simply to say this: thank you. Thank you for your love and devotion to our family and to the family of nations you have served so diligently all these years.'
