While Meghan Markle and Prince Harry finished up their trip to Nigeria and are settling back into their usual routine in Montecito, sources close to the royal family say that King Charles and Prince William are once again discussing the possibility of stripping the Sussexes of their titles. The first time it came up was when Harry and Meghan decided to distance themselves from the royal family, and the Firm decided that they would no longer be referred to as His Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness but allowed them to continue using Duke and Duchess of Sussex.

Tom Quinn, royal expert and author of Scandals of the Royal Palaces: An Intimate Memoir of Royals Behaving Badly, told The Mirror that King Charles and Prince William “have had lengthy discussions about stripping Meghan and Harry of their royal titles, but they are terrified this would backfire and make the situation worse.”

All parents worry about their children, even well into adulthood. According to a new book, King Charles III’s biggest concern when it comes to Prince Harry is his finances. As per reports, Charles, aged 75, is worried about Harry, aged 39, and his wife Meghan Markle spending all the money they earned via deals with Spotify and Netflix.

King Charles – Worries Over “The Harry Problem”

Worrying over Harry’s potential financial issues is just one of many things covered by the upcoming Kate Middleton biography, titled “Catherine: The Princess of Wales”, penned by Royal reporter, Robert Jobson.

In an excerpt from the book Jobson notes that the ‘Harry problem’ (as Palace staff refer to it), plagues the King. A Palace official was said to note that Charles worries about what will happen to Harry when “all the money runs out”.

Meghan & Harry – Searching For A New Stream Of Income

Jobson implies that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are looking for a new income stream that isn’t connected to spilling the dirt on Harry’s family, as, in his opinion, “the public has wearied of their constant complaints.”

Quinn added that even without the titles, Harry and Meghan would be able to continue their work and be able to travel—and that the Sussexes would be welcome with open arms just about anywhere they go.

“The last thing they want is to give the renegade royals something else to complain about,” he added. “William and his father know that even without their royal titles, Meghan and Harry would carry on traveling the world as if they were royals, and most people in the world will still welcome them.”

Even if Harry and Meghan were no longer able to use their titles, the public would more than likely continue to associate them with the royal family—much like how most people continue to refer to Kate Middleton as “Kate Middleton” and not Catherine, Princess of Wales or Duchess of Cambridge.

Although Harry and Meghan have stepped away from their previous positions as senior royals, they continue to use their titles. When the Sussexes re-launched their website, they included mentions of being the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and used imagery of a coat of arms. American Riviera Orchard, Meghan’s new brand of jam (and maybe more), also mentions that she’s the Duchess of Sussex on its Instagram page.

After Harry and Meghan’s trip to Nigeria, Quinn mentioned that the king and William were “furious” that it looked like an official royal tour.

“All the signs were there, as the couple were greeted with dances, receptions, visits to schools and charities,” Quinn told The Mirror earlier this week. “William is absolutely furious and determined to find a way to stop this happening in [the] future. Charles is said to be angrier than anyone has ever seen him.”

Jobson also adds that Prince William is quite strong in his views of not helping his brother and wife in the future; however, his dad, King Charles, doesn’t hold the same opinion. According to Jobson, Charles has let it be known that he won’t ever shut the door on Harry.

Since the son went to visit his father earlier this year in February, after learning about his cancer diagnosis, there’s a good chance the two could reconcile, despite the fact that the pair only met briefly.

Still, Harry didn’t visit Charles during a trip to London in May for the 10th anniversary of the Invictus Games. This was apparently due to the King’s schedule.

Harry and Charles have been at odds for years, and during his infamous interview with Oprah Winfrey in 2021, the prince told the talk show host that his dad “literally” cut him off “financially”.
