 What is the proper way to address a member of the Royal Family? - Answerbag.com
In writing this, I have used the HRH's by their proper name to avoid confusion, (as well as several of my other posts) but to be correct, when referring to any member of the Royal Family in writing; you should never use their names, but their titles.
HRH Prince Harry can be expected to become a Duke of *?* one day, but hasn't become one yet, so his title will remain HRH Prince Henry of Wales until either Her Majesty creates him a Duke, or his father becomes King; At which point he will most likely become the Duke of Windsor.
For example, Rather then referring to HRH Prince Charles AS "HRH Prince Charles", you should refer to him as "His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales", or to Her Royal Highness Princess Anne, as "Her Royal Highness The Princess Royal".
