A meaningless title. But I guess if it turns him on, then fine.

All these titles are meaningless to me: like Sir, Lord, Duke, etc.

They're there to put the poor in their place, but they're just words. Yes, property and money come with them, but if that all it means then fine again.

I am happy being common Gusto Brunt. A VERY SPECIAL PERSON in my own mind and that's what counts.

It's not really a meaningless title as it has a wad of charities associated with it .... like .... the duke of edinburgh awards

Edward was a bit of a twat many years ago but he has kept a low profile since marrying the lovely Sophie and his children seem delightful.

Great news that Prince Edward has been given the title to mark his 59th birthday, his first after the Queen’s passing. They are a lovely, steadfast and loyal family. Happy Birthday, Duke of Edinburgh!
