By marriage
The wife of a British prince becomes a British princess, but she cannot use the princess title before her own given name. She can use the princess title with her husband's given name (e.g. Princess Michael of Kent), while the wife of the Prince of Wales is styled as the Princess of Wales (e.g. Catherine, Princess of Wales). Men cannot become princes by marriage.[2][3][4]
