Title

According to Debrett's although known as Prince Radziwiłł in Britain, on becoming a British subject and in keeping with standard practice, Radziwiłł strictly needed permission from Queen Elizabeth II to use his princely title.[1] The Radziwiłł family held the title of honorary Princes of the Holy Roman Empire since the early 16th century. However, noble titles were abolished in Poland and Austria.
