Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had held onto the Sussex titles for quite some time, which had become a source of embarrassment for England. It had begun to border on the ridiculous, and there is disappointment that King Charles allowed this situation to persist for so long.
The title of Duke of Sussex holds significant historical and hereditary importance within the British royal family. It has been created twice, and its name is derived from the historic County of Sussex in England.
Initially conferred on Prince Augustus of Frederick in 1801, it also came with the titles of Baron Arlo and Earl of Inverness. Interestingly, Prince Augustus of Frederick's marriage to Lady Augusta Murray was annulled due to a lack of Royal permission under the Royal Marriages Act of 1772.
Notably, there was a recent error in the Duke of Sussex's profile page that was quietly corrected after being pointed out by the media. Prince Harry's titles were erroneously mentioned as "HRH" and "Youngest son of the Prince of Wales," which was actually his father King Charles II's title before passing it on to his brother Prince William.
However, in response to numerous requests from the people of Sussex, the House of Lords has made the decision to strip Meghan and Harry of their titles and award them to the descendants of Prince Augustus Frederick. This change reflects the tradition of British royal offspring born outside of the current Sovereign's lineage receiving different titles.
Consequently, Archie's future children will not hold princely titles, even if they inherit the Duke title from Harry. They will only be titled as Lord and Lady. This transition has raised concerns, particularly for Meghan, as her descendants will no longer carry the prestigious titles of Prince or Princess, and her lineage will revert to ordinary "Mr." and "Mrs."
Prince Harry's recent disregard for Prince William and his contributions to the discourse on mental health has garnered attention and criticism. Accusations have been made against Prince Harry for failing to show due respect to Prince William for his efforts in the mental health field.
These allegations were highlighted by royal commentator Daniel Zaire, who pointed out that despite any grievances Harry may hold against the royal family, he should still acknowledge their work and contributions.
In particular, Prince Harry's failure to acknowledge Prince William and Kate Middleton's contributions to mental health initiatives has drawn criticism and sparked discussions surrounding his actions.
