A true aristocratic match.

When and if they have a son, is the courtesy title "Earl of Kelso" or
"Earl Innes?"

Thanks.

I'd have thought 'Earl of Kelso'. The earldom of Innes was only
created (in the Peerage of the United Kingdom) to enable him to sit in
The House of Lords, rather than sit as a Scottish Representative Peer.

fascinating to think that two of the First baron Beaverbrook's great-
grand-daughters are likely to become duchesses as The countess of
Mornington is a cousin of charlotte Aitken.
