‘He loathes and despises Harry and Meghan’: Royal insider says William will strip Meghan and Harry of titles

Prince William reportedly plans to strip Prince Harry and Meghan Markle of their HRH titles upon becoming king.

Reports suggest that Meghan Markle when he becomes King. This supposed plan comes from an increasing divide between William and the Sussexes, caused by arguments over the couple still using the HRH title even though they stepped back from royal duties in 2020.

Sources say King Charles III is hesitant to get into a public fight over this issue, which is very different from William’s reported firm position. The Daily Beast Reports have emphasized how strongly William feels about the Sussexes, describing his feelings as deep disapproval. “He loathes and despises Harry and Meghan with every bone in his body, he believes they have betrayed everything the family stands for and the idea that they are using their royal status as a calling card will enrage him.”

The main problem centers on Meghan Markle using the HRH title (as found by People) in personal situations. Examples that have been pointed out include a signed gift basket given to a podcast host and a letter from a foreign official, both of which included the HRH title.

Meghan Markle may soon lose royal status

This comes from a belief that the couple has been disloyal to the family and has tried to use their royal connection for personal benefit. William’s side reportedly believes the agreement banned all use of the HRH title in any situation. On the other hand, Harry and Meghan’s team says the ban only applied to business use, not private communication.

While Markle’s representatives say this does not break past agreements because it was only for personal communication and not for business purposes, others argue that this misrepresents the deal made when the couple left royal life.

The original agreement stated that the couple would stop using their HRH titles. The legal and historical background for such a move is being discussed. While the exact legal details are unclear, some argue that since the monarch has the power to grant the HRH title, they also have the power to take it away.

The only recent cases where HRH status was removed involved divorce, which is not the same as the current situation. One legal expert compared the action to an executive order in the U.S.
