Edward Windsor, Lord Downpatrick
Edward Edmund Maximilian George Windsor, Lord Downpatrick (born
2 December 1988) is the only son and heir of
George Windsor, Earl of St Andrews and his wife, the
Countess of St. Andrews (née Palma Tomaselli).
His father is the elder son of the
Duke and his wife
Duchess of Kent. Lord Downpatrick is heir after his father to the
Dukedom of Kent and for this reason enjoys the courtesy title Lord Downpatrick. Following the examples of his grandmother, the Duchess of Kent, and of his uncle
Lord Nicholas Windsor, he became a
Catholic and therefore was struck from the
British succession. Since his mother, too, is a Catholic, his father was struck from the succession upon marrying her. He has two younger sisters:
Lady Marina-Charlotte Windsor, and
Lady Amelia Windsor.
