The Royal Princess was christened by the new wife of Prince William.

Will the Sky Princess be christened by the new wife of Prince Harry?????

If so, it would give an American connection to the ship.

 

It’s possible but probably not, the current Royal Princess was named by Princess Catherine due to the first Royal Princess being named by Princess Diane.

With no UK link to where she is being built, launched or homeported then sounds doubtful in her new role. At least Royal Princess was christened in Southampton in the UK.

There is no Princess Catherine, though there may one day be a Queen Catherine.

 

I presume that you are referring to:

Her Royal Highness Princess William of Wales, Duchess of Cambridge, Countess of Strathearn, Lady Carrickfergus.

 

For what it is worth, after her marriage Meghan Markle will become:

Princess Henry of Wales, though it is highly likely that the Queen will create a Dukedom for her husband early on their wedding day which will mean she will become a Duchess. She will not become a Princess in her own right though if she were subsequently to have a daughter from the marriage, the child could become be a Princess but that is in the gift of Her Majesty The Queen.

 

The current expectation is that her husband will be created Duke of Sussex, though it could be any of Clarence, Connaught, Cumberland, Kendal, Ross, Sussex, Windsor and Albany, in which case she will become:

Her Royal Highness Princess Henry of Wales, Duchess of Sussex. It is also likely that he will be created an Earl in Scotland

Just to complete the story:

 

After the wedding Princess Henry of Wales will be:

Sixth in order or precedence when accompanied by her husband

and

Twelfth in order of precedence if no-one is accompanied by their husbands

Ok it is announced. She will become:

Her Royal Highness Princess Henry of Wales, Duchess of Sussex, Countess of Dumbarton, Baroness / Lady Kilkeel.

 

(Reason for Baroness / Lady is that when first addressing a Baroness the correct form is to use Baroness and thereafter revert to Lady though this is hardly relevant as she will rarely use this title.)

 

As in the case of the Duchess of Cambridge, she will be known in England as the Duchess of Sussex, and as the Countess of Dumbarton in Scotland.

 

She will use these titles rather than that of Princess Henry of Wales as these are titles she will hold in her own right
