    I think anytime a royal is in the hospital or having a major health event, there is public concern. I have compiled this information for the purpose of allowing the public to better understand the royal's health history.

    All information I share is publicly available information that has been released by the palace. Out of respect for the royals, I don't include any rumors or anything not confirmed by the palace or royals.

      Sometimes In the Future

      • Most of the time a Lieutenant-Representative has been appointed in Luxembourg, the Monarch abdicated a few years after. The Luxembourg royals likes to choose abdication dates that coincide with other milestones. Some upcomming milestones:  
        • 2025 - 25 years of reign (Silver Jubilee)/ 70th Birthday
        • 2026 - Guillaume same age as when Henri ascended (45)
        • 2030 - 30 years of reign/75th Birthday
        • 2034 - Henri is same age as father when he abdicated (79)
        • 2035 - same length of reign as father (35 years)/80th Birthday

      Luxembourg Transition of Power - Q&A (2024)

      To answer questions related to Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg appointing Prince Guillaume as Lieutenant-Representative. Leave your comments below and I will pick some questions to answer. 

      Q1: What is a Lieutenant-Representative?

      A: The Lieutenant-Representative of the Grand Duke is a member of the Royal Family (usually Heir Apparent) who is appointed to represent/ act as monarch. This is a similar to a regent, but the Monarch is not stripped of their powers or duties. 

      Lieutenant is position in many Armed Forces, however it is not being used in a military context here. Lieutenant refer to the person second in command. The word come from the french "lieu" (place/position) + "Tenant" (holding). So, Lieu-tenant is a placeholder for a superior, during their absence.

      Q2: How is this different than a regency?

      A: Most Monarchies only have the option for a regent/regency, or abdication.  The Lieutenancy is sort of a half way to Abdication/Regency. The Heir is given powers to act as Monarch, but the current monarch is not stripped of their powers. 

      • Abdication 
        • Current monarch steps down
        • Heir becomes new monarch
      • Regency (This could be temporary or permanent)
        • Current monarch is usually incapable/unable to perform their duties (often due to illness or age, with some monarchies due to being abroad). 
        • Heir (or other adult) is acting monarch, with power and duties of monarch. 
      • Lieutenancy
        • Current monarch keeps position, may keep some powers, duties
        • Heir (or other adult) is given position as Lieutenant-Representative (i.e. acting moanrch), with all (or some) power and duties of monarch. 
      Q3: Why announce it now and wait until October to make Prince Guillaume Lieutenant-Representative?

      A: When you are able to plans things in advance, often people will schedule things for special/significant dates. The announcement came on Luxembourg's National Day (June 23rd). While the palace hasn't confirmed the exact date of Prince Guillaume becoming Lieutenant-Representative, we know it is in October. And I expect it will be October 7th, the anniversary of Grand Duke Henri's accession.

      Prince Guillaume (Hereditary Grand Duke) with Grand Duke Henri


      Grand Duke Henri of Luxembourg announced on National Day (June 23rd, 2024), that he is appointing his son/heir Prince Guillaume as Lieutenant-Representative in October. This is the intermediate step in a regime change. 

      Article 42 of Luxembourg Constitution

      The Grand Duke may have Himself represented by a Prince of the blood, who shall bear the title of Lieutenant of the Grand Duke and who [shall] reside in the Grand Duchy.

      This representative shall take an oath to observe the Constitution before exercising his powers.


      Grand Duke Henri is NOT Abdicating at this point (but probably will in a few years). By appointing Prince Guillaume as Lieutenant-Representative Grand Duke Henri is able to pass certain powers and duties to his son. But Grand Duke Henri will remain Monarch/Head of State. 

      The announcement was made during Grand Duke Henri's Speech at the annual National Day Ceremony at Luxembourg Philharmonie

      "In this context, I want to, with the Grand Duchess, Prince Guillaume and Princess Stéphanie, to inform you that I have decided this October to transfer the lieutenancy to Prince Guillaume."

      Queen Elizabeth Final Patronages - Discontinued Royal Patronages


      This is a list of the patronages held by Queen Elizabeth II at the time of her death that have been confirmed to be discontinued. 

      The palace has not released a full list of patronages continued and discontinued. So, we have had to search through Queen Elizabeth II's patronages manually. This list is not complete, but represents what we know of (as of June 2024).

      For more, check out Queen Elizabeth II's Final Patronages - Main Page

      Patronages Not Picked by Another Royal

      This list is patronages we have confirmed have not been picked up by another royal, following the palace's review of patronages. 

      One of the main reasons a patronage is discontinued is because the organization has changed in some way. This could include: decline in membership/living members, organization restructuring, cause no longer important or of national interest, change in leadership or focus, etc  

      • Australian Racing Museum
        • Patron 
          • Queen Elizabeth II (1976-2022)
      • Berkshire Archaeological Society
        • Patron 
          • Queen Elizabeth II (?-2022)
        • From Summer News Letter: "In 1891, Queen Victoria became patron of the Society. The letter from Lord Ponsonby confirming the Queen’s patronage is held in the Royal Berkshire Archives. Successive monarchs: Edward VII, George V, George VI, and Elizabeth II renewed their patronage. When Prince Charles became King, we were informed that there would be a review of Royal patronages and in May I received a letter that confirmed that King Charles would not continue as our patron. This change is not surprising. In 1891, the excavations at Silchester had just started and fieldwork was largely sponsored by the elite. Nowadays, archaeology is firmly embedded in UK and European culture and is largely a professional activity directed by central and local government, supported by Historic England and a small but active archaeological industry and university archaeology departments."

As a result, a considerable number of Royal Patronages are being concluded. While we acknowledge that the reduced footprint of the Royal Household requires these changes, it is important to highlight that His Majesty remains our esteemed Colonel-in-Chief, a role he cherishes deeply. Despite the loss of patronage, His Majesty's unwavering support and leadership as our Colonel-in-Chief will undoubtedly continue to inspire and guide the regiment.

We were always grateful to Her Late Majesty for her patronage over so many decades, and of course we entirely understand that His Majesty regrettably could not “absorb” all of her patronages.
