Princess Anne is likely to take over honorary military title Captain General of the Royal Marines from Prince Harry, who confirmed to the monarch that he and his wife Meghan Markle will not return as working royals.
Prince Harry will relinquish his honorary military appointments and patronages, the Buckingham Palace announced on Friday. Now, according to reports, Princess Anne is set to take over from Duke of Sussex Prince Harry as Captain General of the Royal Marines.
Princess Anne, who is the second child and only daughter of Queen Elizabeth and Prince Philip and is the 15th in the line of succession to the British throne, will be the first female Captain General if she is offered the role. According to Royal author Phil Dampier, 70-year-old Anne is a good fit for the Marines, adding that “I think she is highly likely to be offered the role”.
