BREAKING NEWS: William And Kate's New Titles Revealed

Prince William and Kate Middleton will take the titles of Duke and Duchess of Cambridge after their marriage, it has been revealed.

The royal groom was given a dukedom - the highest rank in British peerage - to mark his marriage to Kate Middleton.

Miss Middleton will now become Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Cambridge on her marriage at the much-anticipated ceremony in Westminster Abbey today.

William also became the Earl of Strathearn and Baron Carrickfergus, which means Kate will become the Countess of Strathearn and Baroness Carrickfergus.

The last Duchess of Cambridge was the glamorous German-born Princess Augusta Wilhelmina Louisa of Hesse-Cassel, married to Prince Adolphus Frederick, the 1st Duke of Cambridge and mother to Prince George, the 2nd Duke of Cambridge
