Buckingham Palace has reportedly convened multiple confidential discussions regarding the royal titles of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, raising concerns about their continued use of the Sussex designation.
According to sources cited by Radar Online, these clandestine meetings have been held to deliberate on the potential removal of their titles if the couple continues to act in a manner deemed inappropriate by the monarchy. An insider disclosed that within royal circles, there is growing sentiment that the palace has tacitly approved the stripping of their titles should Harry and Meghan cross certain boundaries again. Although such a decision would necessitate an Act of Parliament, those with inside knowledge suggest that the groundwork for this measure has already been laid out through a series of undisclosed meetings aimed at formulating a concrete plan of action.
Since stepping down as senior working royals in 2020 and relocating to the United States, Prince Harry and Meghan have been granted the freedom to explore commercial ventures in their private lives. However, as part of their agreement with the palace, they were instructed not to use the titles "His or Her Royal Highness" or capitalize on the Sussex Royal brand for financial gain. Despite this, Meghan and Harry have continued to reference their royal associations.
Recently, Meghan reinforced her connection to the Sussex title during an episode of the Netflix series With Love, where she playfully corrected a friend, stating, "It's so funny you keep saying Meghan Markle. You know I'm 'Sussex' now." This remark has reportedly reignited tensions within the royal family, with insiders asserting that Buckingham Palace is deeply frustrated by Meghan's apparent insistence on using the title for personal branding.
According to the source speaking to Radar Online, the monarchy views this continued use of the Sussex title as a blatant disregard for the agreements put in place when the couple exited royal life. The situation has fueled further discussions about whether stricter measures should be enforced, including the ultimate revocation of their titles, should they persist in leveraging their royal links in ways that conflict with palace expectations.
