She is not a duchess. There is no royalty in the USA.
Section 9 Powers Denied Congress
No Title of Nobility shall be granted by the United States: And no Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under them, shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State.

Technically doesn’t prevent her from holding office. The U.S. did not grant the title of nobility, and a weak Congress would rubber stamp consent for her to be seated.

There is still a pending amendment from 1810 thst would stop it.

Yet US politicians have received honorary British knighthoods: Eisenhower, Reagan, Bush, Giuliani, Ted Kennedy, Colin Powell.
