Llywelyn Jones
Tywysog (Prince) Llywelyn Jones Cymru is an American man from California. He prefers to be called simply by "Llywelyn". He claims to have a court ruling stating he is the lawful King of Wales. He claims succession to the throne through the native Welsh laws of gavelkind as a descendent of the Welsh nation. He is one of two American men claiming eligibility as the King of Wales, the other is named Allan V Evans from Colorado. Allan Evans claimed he would take the throne within thirty days from a statement he issued in 2017.[1]
The 33-year-old sought the ruling in an international tribunal sitting in Japan in May, 2016. For a day job he is an engineering liaison for an aviation company. He is also a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu practitioner and mixed martial artist. In 2016, he competed under the name "LJ Jones", and in 2017 as "Tywysog Llywelyn Jones Cymru". He has served as an experimental flight engineer on the V-22 Osprey. In 2008, Llywelyn sued Boeing, The Boeing Co. and Bell Helicopter Textron Inc., over a V-22 Osprey fire he was involved in, claiming that design flaws in the aircraft made it unsafe to operate.
In March of 2018, Llywelyn travelled to Cardiff, Wales on a self-issued Welsh diplomatic passport. Despite being in possession of a self-issued passport and claiming to be the King of Britons; the United Kingdom charged him with no crimes.
Llywelyn, Prince of Cymru has two male heirs. HRH Prince Dorian Jones, and HRH Prince Gafyn Jones. In 2012 Prince Dorian broke the record for youngest solo bungee jumper at the age of 9.
Claim to the throne[edit]
Llewellyn is quoted as saying "My claim to the native incorporeal hereditaments of Wales is based on Welsh law, common law, and international laws. Because I was the first qualified person under Welsh law since Owain Glyndwr to claim the titles, and being that the Welsh law states that “the office itself is not divisible”; jurists around the world have recognized me as the de jure or “rightful” owner of the titles."[2]
Llywelyn’s claim to the Welsh throne precludes all others on the legal principles of: laches, adverse possession, non-belligerent occupation, proprietary estoppel, non-violent and peaceful conquest, international prescriptive laws, usucaption, and succession. Each of these methods of acquisition is conclusive and binding. Which is why the matter has been deemed res judicata.
In 2017 Llywelyn, Prince of Cymru corresponded with the and identified himself as Rex Britannorum (King of Britons) and the heir to the native Welsh Kings and Princes. The UK Government Legal Department responded to him five days later and referred him to the Prime Minister’s office stating that the issue was a “devolution matter” and above their branch of government.
