2010-07-20来源:和谐英语

  One is delighted! Queen to become a great-grandmama as Peter Phillips announces wife Autumn's pregnancy

  有人开心极了!外孙彼得·菲利普斯宣布妻子奥特姆已有身孕,伊丽莎白女王荣升曾祖母

  The Queen is said to be overjoyed after learning that she is to become a great-grandmother for the first time.

  据说,英女王在第一次得知自己要当曾祖母时欣喜若狂。

  Princess Anne's son Peter Phillips and his wife Autumn are expecting their first child in December, Buckingham Palace confirmed yesterday.

  白金汉宫昨日已证实,安妮公主的儿子彼得·菲利普斯和其妻子奥特姆预计将于12月份喜迎他们第一个孩子的诞生。

 

  Although he is 11th in line to the throne, Mr Phillips does not have a royal title as his mother declined to give her children the HRH title at birth.

  虽然菲利普斯在继承王位的资格上排到了第十一名,但是由于母亲在他出生时,拒绝传给他殿下的头衔,菲利普斯并没有皇室头衔。

  Mrs Phillips was born and brought up a Roman Catholic but renounced her faith shortly before their wedding in May 2008 so her husband-to-be did not have to give up his claim to the throne.

  菲利普斯夫人出生并生长在一个罗马天主教的家庭,但在2008年5月份举行婚礼的前不久,她放弃了自己的信仰,以此来保住她未婚夫继承王位的权利。
