There have been two baronetcies created for members of the Scottish Pringle family, one in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia and one in the Baronetage of Great Britain. As of 2015, one creation is extant.

The Pringle Baronetcy, of Stichill in the County of Roxburgh, was created in the Baronetage of Nova Scotia on 5 January 1683 for Robert Pringle.[1] The fourth Baronet sat as Member of Parliament for Berwickshire.

The Pringle Baronetcy, of Pall Mall, was created in the Baronetage of Great Britain on 5 June 1766 for the physician John Pringle. He was the youngest son of the second Baronet of the 1673 creation. The title became extinct on his death in 1782.

  • Sir Norman William Drummond Pringle, 7th Baronet (1836–1897)

  • Squadron Leader Norman Hamilton Pringle, de facto 9th Baronet (1903–1961) - non-biological son of 8th Baronet, recognised during his lifetime but removed from the Official Roll of the Baronetage in 2016.
  • Lt-Gen Sir Steuart Robert Pringle KCB, de facto 10th Baronet (1928–2013) - non-biological grandson of 8th Baronet, recognised during his lifetime but removed from the Official Roll of the Baronetage in 2016.
  • Sir Ronald Steuart Pringle, de jure 9th Baronet (1905-1968) - younger son of 8th Baronet, not recognised during his lifetime but added posthumously to the Official Roll of the Baronetage in 2016.
  • Sir Norman Murray Archibald MacGregor Pringle, 10th Baronet (b. 1941)

The heir apparent to the Baronetcy is the present holder's only son, Alastair Steuart Ronald Pringle (b 1972)

2013-2016 dispute over lineage

After the 2013 death of Steuart Pringle, the 10th de facto Baronet, the title was claimed by his eldest son, Simon. DNA testing, however, originally gathered by Norman Murray Pringle (the current 10th Baronet) with the stated aim of determining the current clan chief of the Clan Pringle (dormant since 1738), showed that Steuart Pringle was not genetically related to the rest of the Pringle clan. Norman Murray Pringle then contested the title and claimed it for himself, on the basis that the 9th baronet should have been recognised as his father, Ronald Steuart Pringle (9th de jure baronet), the younger, legitimate son of the 8th baronet. While the dispute continued, the baronetcy was dormant, due to the conflicting claims of Norman Murray Pringle and Simon Pringle, since neither had proven their right of succession to the baronetcy over the other. As a consequence neither was entered on the Official Roll of the Baronetage.[2]

The Queen, acting under the Judicial Committee Act 1833,[3] referred the matter to the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council,[4] which held its hearings on the matter in November 2015[5][6] and January 2016.[1][7] It delivered its ruling on 20 June 2016,[8] determining that DNA evidence[9] proved that Sir Norman Hamilton Pringle, 9th de facto Baronet, was conceived adulterously and was not the biological son of Sir Norman Robert Pringle, 8th Baronet.

In delivering the judgment, Lord Hodge expressed sympathy for the late Steuart Pringle and his son Simon, stating:

{{cquote|

85. In the past, the absence of scientific evidence meant that the presumption of legitimacy could rarely be rebutted and claims based on assertions that irregular procreations had occurred in the distant past were particularly difficult to establish. Not so now. It is not for the Board to express any view on what social policy should be. It notes the ability of DNA evidence to reopen a family succession many generations into the past. Whether this is a good thing and whether legal measures are needed to protect property transactions in the past, the rights of the perceived beneficiary of a trust of property, and the long established expectations of a family, are questions for others to consider.

On 27 June 2016 Grant Bavister, Assistant Register to the Baronetage at the Ministry of Justice, entered Sir Ronald Steuart Pringle and his son Sir Norman Murray Pringle onto the Official Roll of the Baronetage, as the 9th and 10th de jure Baronets. He also removed the de facto 9th and 10th Baronets, Norman Hamilton Pringle and his son Steuart Robert Pringle, from the Roll, in accordance with the Royal Warrant of 1910. Certificates of succession to this effect were issued to Sir Norman Murray Pringle on 1 July 2016.
