Meghan and Harry 'unlikely to lose royal titles' as duchess would simply adopt new one

If the prince were to obtain a US visa, he would need to take the Oath of Allegiance and “renounce all allegiance to any foreign prince, state or sovereign.”

Harry and Meghan stepped back from their royal duties and moved to the US in 2020 but the couple continue to use their duke and duchess title to complete charity work and to build on their personal brand.

There have also been calls for the couple to lose their titles as they capitalise off them from their contracts with Netflix and Penguin House.

Royal commentator Ingrid Seward spoke about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s royal titles and the likelihood that they would be taken away from them.

She said: “I don't think anything will happen to the titles because, if they lose their titles, Harry is still a prince of the blood and Meghan instead of being the Duchess of Sussex, [would] be Princess Henry.

“That really would [confuse the Americans]. I think [it's] probably best just to leave it because it looks unkind, it looks unnecessary."

The couple used their royal titles for their new website Sussex.com which promotes the Archewell Foundation and Archewell Productions.

Meghan also used her Duchess of Sussex name to launch a new lifestyle brand American Riviera Orchard.

Ingrid continued: “The Queen gave them the titles, let them keep them - they're going to be 'H and M' anyway. I think the best thing is to leave them, ignore them, and let them get on with it - which is really what the Palace and the Royal Family are doing."

Prince Harry’s full name is Prince Henry Charles Albert David, therefore, Meghan could be known as Princess Henry as traditionally a princess can adopt the title using her husband’s name upon marriage.

Meghan also has the official titles Countess of Dumbarton and Baroness Kilkeel.

After the launch of Meghan’s lifestyle brand, royal correspondent Jennie Bond told GB News that the duchess had “the right” to use her title.

Bond said: “She is the Duchess of Sussex and she has every right to use that title.

"I do have an opinion that if they dislike most of the most of what the monarchy is about and royalty perhaps it would be advisable not to use that title, but it is her right.”
