On 16 July 2018, the title was recreated in the Peerage of the United Kingdom by Queen Elizabeth II as one of the two subsidiary titles for her grandson Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, on the occasion of his wedding, when he was also created Baron Kilkeel. The title was announced on 19 May 2018.
The Duke of Sussex's official titles are The Duke of Sussex, Earl of Dumbarton and Baron Kilkeel. He was made a Knight Commander of the Royal Victorian Order (KCVO) by Queen Elizabeth II in June 2015.
What does Dumbarton think about the royal title? Prince Harry has been given a Scottish title by the Queen. He will be the third Earl of Dumbarton - a title that has strong military connections and one not used since 1749. On her marriage, Meghan Markle has become the Countess of Dumbarton.
It is true that once Charles became King, the titles of Prince and Princess were automatically available to Archie and Lilibet. They were, as Harry and Meghan have pointed out, their “birthright.” But so was the title Earl of Dumbarton for Archie and they didn't use it.

Who is Prince Archie's biological father?
Prince Archie of Sussex (Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor; born 6 May 2019) is a member of the British royal family. He is the son of Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex.
The four-year-old is named after her great-grandmother Queen Elizabeth II. Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, has shared rare photos and video of her daughter Princess Lilibet to mark the young royal's fourth birthday.
On his wedding day, it was announced that he would become Duke of Sussex in England, with the subsidiary titles of Earl of Dumbarton in Scotland and Baron Kilkeel in Northern Ireland. In 2019, an heir to the dukedom and the other titles, Prince Archie of Sussex, was born.
Charles has met Archie a few times, but he has seen Lilibet only once during the late Queen Elizabeth II's Platinum Jubilee in June 2022. He has also seen Meghan only once since she quit royal life.
Under UK law, only the person who actually gave birth can be listed as 'mother' on the certificate, so the fact that Meghan is named clearly means she neither had a hysterectomy, nor used a surrogate.
Portland Hospital in Westminster was listed as Archie' place of birth. A copy of the birth certificate of Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor, son of Britain's Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, in London, Friday May 17, 2019.
Earl Godwin had become the most powerful English earl by supporting the Danish kings, including eliminating any rivals to their power. Family - Edward married Earl Godwin's daughter Edith when he became king as a political arrangement made by Godwin to secure his family's power.
King David II sought refuge at Dumbarton in 1333 after the Scots lost the Battle of Haildon Hill, and sailed from here to France. In 1435 James I's daughter also went to France from here to marry Louis, the heir to the French throne. In 1489 James IV besieged the castle twice to suppress a rebellion by Lord Darnley.
Legally, Meghan is "Princess Henry" (Harry's real name) but is not known as such because her Duchess of Sussex title takes precedence. Wives of princes who do not hold royal dukedoms or subsidiary titles are known by "Princess" followed by their husband's name.
Dumbarton F.C. is Scotland's fifth oldest football club, behind Queen's Park, Kilmarnock, Stranraer and Rangers. The club, nicknamed "The Sons", short for the Sons of the Rock, was founded in 1872 and went on to win the Scottish Football League in the first two seasons of the competition, as joint Champions.
In 2019, she and Harry welcomed their now six-year-old son, Prince Archie. One year later, the couple left the royal family and moved to California before Meghan gave birth to Princess Lilibet in 2021.
What is missing from Prince Archie's birth certificate?
Royal enthusiasts have pointed out that the word 'Prince' is missing from Archie's birth certificate, which lists Harry as "His Royal Highness Henry Charles Albert David Duke of Sussex". However, the birth certificates of children of King Charles and Prince William's include the title 'Prince'.
My legal name is Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, but Sussex for us works as our family name and it's the name that we share with our children.” Markle said in conclusion, “But yes, since we've been married, that's what I've been called.”
