Nine Royals May Lose Their Prince or Princess Titles
King Charles recently took a historic step by stripping his brother, Andrew Mountbatten Windsor, of his "prince" title. This unprecedented move may pave the way for further changes to royal titles.
Potential Title Changes Under King William
A palace source told Page Six that they
“would not be surprised” if future “King William” stripped Prince Harry of his title. The source explained,
“If they pass these bills, I would not be surprised if Harry is the next one to go. I would not be surprised if William does that… he’s not a vindictive person, but he feels very let down and it’s always much more difficult when you are let down by somebody close to you.”
Removing Titles from Non-Working Royals
A source speaking to The Daily Beast revealed that William intends to
“remove princely titles from all non-working royals”. Those affected would also lose the HRH (His/Her Royal Highness) style.
- Prince Harry
- Meghan Markle
- Prince Archie
- Princess Lilibet
- Princess Eugenie
- Princess Beatrice
- Potentially Prince George
- Princess Charlotte
- Prince Louis
Summary
King Charles’s unprecedented removal of a royal title may lead King William to similarly strip princely titles from non-working family members, including Prince Harry and potentially even the younger generation.
