She was only the Princess of Thebes in the original mythology. Disney tends to change quite a bit of things from the source material, especially starting with Beauty and the Beast. Maybe I must have missed something and her actually being of royalty in Thebes was actually mentioned in the Disney film, but I am racking through my memory of the film, and I don't recall it even being implied that she was even of royalty, either by birth or by marriage before meeting Hercules (remember, the man who stood her up despite selling her soul to save him was her BOYFRIEND, not her HUSBAND, meaning she was in a relationship with someone she wasn't actually married to yet.). And considering Hercules gave up the position of prince of the gods by the end of the film, there's zero chance of her ever getting princess status even if she does marry him.
