Archie and Lilibet, once officially given their prince and princess titles in 2023 following King Charles’s ascension, are now facing a harsh removal of their royal status under plans being pushed forward in Parliament. Prince William, determined to reshape the monarchy into a streamlined institution of working royals only, spearheaded this initiative which deprives the Sussex children of the “HRH” royal highness style and their princely titles.
Insiders reveal that Meghan viewed the titles not only as symbols of prestige but as protective shields that afforded her children security and standing within the royal fold. The loss of these titles is viewed as a public repudiation of the Sussex branch and a blow to Meghan’s efforts to ensure her children’s royal future.
The decision follows Prince William’s vision to hold royal titles exclusively for those actively engaged with royal duties, excluding individuals who have chosen to step back from official roles like Harry, Meghan, and their children. This approach reflects a return to tradition seen with other royal family members such as Princess Anne’s children.
Royal experts note that while Archie and Lilibet will lose the official use of their titles, they remain in the line of succession and keep their place in royal lineage. However, the emotional impact on Meghan is profound—a source close to the family described her reaction as deeply upset and feeling “her family’s identity is being stripped away.”
This move has also ignited fierce debate among royal followers and media, with some viewing it as a necessary modernization step and others condemning it as unnecessarily cruel.
As Meghan struggles with this mounting pressure, the battle over her children’s royal status underscores the ongoing turbulence within the family and the uncertain future of the Sussex legacy.
