Anwar Hussein / Getty Images Shortly before his marriage to the then Princess Elizabeth, Prince Philip was given the title of Duke of Edinburgh, becoming the fourth royal to hold the dukedom. It was first created in 1726, when it was given to Prince Frederick, King George I s grandson. The next holder was Prince George, future King George III. The third holder was Prince Alfred, Queen Victoria s second son. Several decades passed before it was used again, this time for the royal consort. It is a title that Prince Philip has of course become synonymous with, not least because of his namesake Duke of Edinburgh Award scheme, which encourages children from all backgrounds to learn new skills, meet new people and give back to their communities.
