Cries to remove titles of Duke and Duchess of Sussex from Harry and Meghan. But Harry’s title of Prince cannot be removed. Thus if they were no longer Duke and Duchess, they’d be Prince and Princess. Which would, one might argue, be even more appealing on the world stage..
Meghan’s title would be Princess Henry of Wales. That is her title through marriage but she does not use it now due to the Sussex titles. But if the Sussex titles removed, she would be quickly called in general speech Princess Meghan or indeed Princess Meghan of Wales....
Removing the Sussex titles is v complex, would need to go through Parliament (and gov is v reluctant to get involved), would look v v bad considering all the others who kept theirs and would totally backfire as Harry and Meghan would be then addressed as Prince and Princess.
But still it keeps being called for, this time after Harry goes on a podcast and suggests mildly that Charles didn’t have a 100 percent happy childhood - which has been said, in detail, by sources around Charles for years.
So they return Frogmore money, military titles, patronages, make their money /work for charity but still this desire to ‘punish’ comes up, even though said punishment wd be logistically near impossible and a PR disaster....
Strange.
