King Charles III and Prince William ‘have discussed stripping Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s royal titles’, according to a royal expert, who claims they are weary over the backlash they would face
King Charles and Prince William have discussed stripping Meghan Markle and Prince Harry ‘s royal titles, according to a royal expert.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex famously stepped back from their roles as senior working royals in 2020, with them moving to America mere months later. The couple now reside in Montecito, California with their two children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
Since the couple moved across the pond, they have taken part in several projects, with them often making bombshell revelations about their time in the Royal Family, raising eyebrows and causing tensions to brew. The Sussexes proudly sat in chairs labelled ‘Duke’ and ‘Duchess’ during their recent tour of Nigeria and were “delighted” their royal titles were on display.
But royal author and expert Tom Quinn has exclusively told The Mirror that King Charles and Prince William “have had lengthy discussions about stripping Meghan and Harry of their royal titles, but they are terrified this would backfire and make the situation worse”.

Mr Quinn added: “The last thing they want is to give the renegade royals something else to complain about. William and his father know that even without their Royal titles Meghan and Harry would carry on travelling the world as if they were royals and most people in the world will still welcome them.”
When the couple stepped back from their roles as senior working royals in 2020, they kept their Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles, but no longer had their HRH titles with them no longer addressed as his or her royal highness. Also when they departed the monarchy and the United Kingdom, Harry gave up his military titles.

Earlier this year, the Sussexes doubled down on their association with the Royal Family when they relaunched their website, calling it Sussex.com and using their royal titles of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and imagery of a coat of arms.
The website features a picture of the couple overlaid with the text: “The Office of Prince Harry & Meghan, The Duke & Duchess of Sussex”. The landing page also includes their credentials, short descriptions, as well as news about their activities such as their recent Nigeria trip.
