It's a moot point anyway most of the title giving today are not passed.

Interesting point.  I think  that only works if they make him a life peer in the House of Lords or Knight him.  Can you have a non-hereditary title of a different sort?

They are scrapping the House of Lords soon anyway, and most life peers don't go into House of Lords anymore anyway, so unlikely. He will probably be made Viscount of Somesuch.

Hope he doesn't end up like George Boleyn.  :ph34r:

Also: Prince Harry/James Middleton slash fiction is going to sell. :P

He is an upper-class Englishman, labels like gay or heterosexual have no meaning to that elite  :cool:
:lol:

I thought Britain never made any constitutional changes "soon" ;)

Ah so there are life peers who do not sit in the Lords?  I am learning so much about post-modern aristocracy

Yes.  Most of them.
Posts here are my own private opinions.  I do not speak for my employer.

Richard Hakluyt

Apart from anything else there are not enough seats in the chamber for all the peers to sit.

Yes.  Most of them.

But there are like 700 members of the HoL!  The Brits must really love making nobles.

Your inclusion of David Beckham makes it hard to figure out what team you are referring to.

Actually he has been rumoured to be gay for quite a while.

Grey Fox

I think we can firmly put in the Bi team.

Fair enough.  I just presume in this day and age people do not feel the need to do something as gross as marrying a beard but hey it is his life.  Kind of sad if true.

You are not required to get married.  It is not like he is a red state politician or anything.  Besides he plays for the LA Galaxy nobody would notice.
