Brigadier Arthur Valerian Wellesley, 8th Duke of Wellington (2 July 1915 – 31 December 2014), styled Marquess of Douro between 1943 and 1972, was a senior British peer and a retired brigadier in the British Army. His main residence was Stratfield Saye House in Hampshire.
He was a member of the House of Lords from 1972 until 1999, losing his seat by the House of Lords Act.
Apart from his British titles, Wellington held the hereditary titles of 8th Prince of Waterloo (''Prins van Waterloo'') of the Kingdom of the Netherlands, and Duke of the Victory (''Duque da Vitória'') of the former Kingdom of Portugal with its subsidiary titles Marquis of Torres Vedras (Marquês de Torres Vedras) and Count of Vimeiro (''Conde de Vimeiro''). These were granted to the first Duke as victory titles for his distinguished services as victorious commanding general in the Peninsular War (in Spain and Portugal), and at the Battle of Waterloo (in what is now Belgium).
The 8th Duke of Wellington was also the 9th Duke of Ciudad Rodrigo (''Duque de Ciudad Rodrigo'') of the Kingdom of Spain, but on 10 March 2010 he ceded the Spanish Dukedom to his eldest child, Charles Wellesley, Marquess of Douro. In accordance with Spanish procedure, Lord Douro petitioned formal claim to the title with the Spanish authorities. King Juan Carlos of Spain, through his Minister, granted the succession of the dukedom to Douro by Royal Decree on 21 May 2010, reported officially in the Official State Gazette for 12 June 2010.
==Background and education==
Wellington was born in Rome, Italy on 2 July 1915, the son of Gerald Wellesley, 7th Duke of Wellington, and Dorothy Violet, daughter of Robert Ashton. He was known by the courtesy title ''Marquess of Douro'' from 1943 when his father succeeded in the dukedom on the death of his nephew. He attended Eton before going up to New College, Oxford.
