Once a prince, always a prince. Though he may be given a royal dukedom when he marries, he will still be a prince.

HRH Prince Harry, will eventually be givien a title when he marries, if he marries. The title of Prince will remain with him, unless he somehow manages to assume the throne, and presently with father still waiting, and his older brother first in line, the chances are remote, but stranger things have happened...remember Edward and Mrs. Simpson? As to what the title will be...that will be up to who is ever on the Throne at that time. However, one title is open that I am aware of...Duke of Windsor. Those of us who are Royalist Loyalists will have our ears to the rumor mill, because after HRH gets back from Iraq, he could very well be looking at a title then as well.

No, Harry will always be a Prince. Another title is often given when a prince marries so his wife will not have a clumsy title. For instance, Prince Edward's wife is known as the Countess of Wessex instead of Princess Edward.

There are a few royal duchies available. Both William and Harry are likely to get one when they marry if William isn't king already. There hasn't been a Duke of Clarence since the brother of George V died before his father Edward VII. That title is available. many thought Edward would have been made Duke of Clarence but he became Earl of Wessex instead.

William's marriage would have no effect on that. . . only his bearing children will have effect on Harry's place in line for the throne, and if dukedom is afforded Prince Harry at some point by the Queen, he will still be a prince, in essence. . .

Eh... it's possible.
Eventually, Prince Harry's descendants will be dukes or duchesses.

Yes, when he marries they'll give him a title. He'll always be a prince.
