Buckingham Palace announces ‘Megxit’ details, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will no longer use royal titles
Prince Harry breaks silence on the situation, saying there were ‘no other options’. Reactions from ‘The Five’.
It seems that in the flurry of decisions made pertaining to Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's stepping back from royal duties there may have been an error.
On Saturday, a statement from Buckingham Palace announced that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle would not use their HRH titles — his or her royal highness — which is set to take effect in the spring. In turn, according to People magazine and the Daily Mail, aides said the pair would go by Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex, and Meghan Markle, Duchess of Sussex.
However, according to the Daily Mail, typically only divorced wives or widows are addressed using a comma between their first name (Meghan Markle) and their royal title (Duchess of Sussex).
In recent years, the title stylization has been used twice: Diana, Princess of Wales, and Sarah, Duchess of York.
The statement continued: "The Sussexes will not use their HRH titles as they are no longer working members of the Royal Family. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have shared their wish to repay Sovereign Grant expenditure for the refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage, which will remain their UK family home."
