Why according to Jason Knauf at Kensington Palace, will it take several years before Meghan becomes a British citizen after her marriage to Prince Harry? Was it the same for then Greek Prince Philip after he married then Princess Elisabeth?
Actually, Philip was born a subject of the British crown.The Sophia Naturalization Act of 1705 made Sophia, Electress of Hanover made Sophia a British national. This was made necessary by the death of Queen Anne’s son and heir. That sad event caused Sophia to move into first place in the order of succession. In addition to resolving the question of Sophia’s nationality, the Act provided that all of Sophia’s descendants would share her British nationality.However, as you say, Philip became a naturalized British subject prior to his marriage to The Princess Elizabeth. According to Philip Eade’s biography Prince Philip: The Turbulent Early Years of the Man Who Married Queen Elizabeth II, the United Kingdom’s government offered accelerated naturalization to foreign nationals who had served in the British armed forces during World War II.Philip submitted his application in late 1946 and was naturalized in 1947. Only later was it discovered that he’d been a citizen all along. Ah! All that perfectly good red tape, gone to waste. Pity. On the plus side, going to all that trouble was a good way of signaling his intention to commit to the United Kingdom. That might have blunted any anti-foreigner sentiment people held.Princess Sophia's Naturalization Act, 1705
Thoughts on Meghan Markle?
When the news first broke out that Harry and Meghan got engaged I was happy for them. Finally Harry could settle down just like his older brother William. At first I liked her because she came from a hard working family and she was pretty normal. But after seeing how she has treated her father and overall family she does seem like a bit of a snake. I don’t know what to think of her because this marriage to me sounds a bit rushed and she strikes me as a gold digger and that she is only using Harry to be in the Royal family.
