Baffled

I am somewhat baffled by the fact that Crown Prince Alexander is not in line to the British throne because of his Catholicism. He, as a Serb, cannot be Catholic, only Orthodox, especially since he is the rightful heir to the Serbian monarchy.Why is he thought of as Catholic?


No one alleges him catholic. But his first wife was and is. British succession is strictly limited by an ordinance "do not marry a catholic or you lose, whatever are your own beliefs". At the moment he was wed with a then catholic, he lost it (big loss, being somewhere in the range of a hundred - not even the massacre in King Ralph destroyed so many fromthe line). Not even his divorce can change that fact. Actually, thinking about how non-notable any high-numbered place in British succession is, it possibly is a bigger publicity splash to lose it than to keep it - at least, by legally losing it, magazines would possibly mention it (at least if properly guided to advertise the event), whereby a reading public gets apprised that he held it... :)) Maed 09:30, 11 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]


Alexander, Prince of Yugoslavia

Isn't this sort of title usually reserved for the pretenders (ie

They recycle all the time the same names, and Alexander is very favored, therefore I decided this guy, to disambiguate him finally, gets "the youngest". Of course, if a younger one gets baptized with same name, reconsider. Hope it will not happen soon, or that they start giving at least two first names. We cannot give ordinals, therefore this would possibly be then "the next-youngest" :))

This person is not entitled to the title of prince

When he was born, the last king regnant of Yugoslavia, his grandfather Peter, had been dead.

Only the reigning monarch of any realm has the authority to grant the title of prince to anyone (including his own offspring).

This person's father and namesake, Crown Prince Alexander, was not only not a king regnant when this person was born, he was not even a citizen of the country whose princedom he purports to have granted to his son (Crown Prince Alexander lost Yugoslav citizenship as a toddler). This is simply not done.

Disputed issues

A significant amount of this article consists of trivia which raises

WP:BLP problems, Wikipedia is not a gossip column. I recognises that there are some sources which say that he is in the line of succession to the British throne. However on Wikipedia there has been some dispute in the past whether Greek Orthodox Christians are in the line of succession. PatGallacher (talk) 16:45, 11 June 2022 (UTC)[reply
