Royal expert Christopher Andersen, author of The King: The Life of Charles III, tells
"King Charles will not strip royal titles away from Prince Harry as it would go against the gifts and wishes of the late Queen Elizabeth II," he notes. Since the title was a gift from Harry's grandmother, Charles wouldn't take it from him.
Under British royal protocol, both Lilibet and Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, the couple's 3-year-old son, are entitled to the titles of princess and prince as grandchildren of the sitting U.K. monarch.
Can Harry and Meghan legally lose their Duke and Duchess titles? Legally, the monarch has no powers to remove a family member's royal titles - it would require an act of parliament to actually happen.
Harry and Meghan made the choice to give up their His / Her Royal Highness (HRH) titles, meaning that they won't be referred to by their "Royal" names. This means that yes, Harry no longer wishes to be referred to as 'Prince'. Interestingly, however, the Duke of Sussex is still fifth in line for the throne.

The answer, it seems, can be summed up in three words: planning, parenting and regrouping. Parenting is part of the reason the Duchess decided not to come to the Coronation, friends have said, as it falls on the same day as Prince Archie's fourth birthday.
Prince Harry and Meghan no longer receive money from the Royal Family and have a series of commercial arrangements with a number of companies.
While they are no longer working members of the royal family, Prince Harry and the former Meghan Markle still hold the royal titles of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, which were bestowed upon them when they married in 2018.
At present, Harry is fifth in line to the throne and this is a birthright "privilege" that cannot be revoked without an Act of Parliament being in place.
Though Harry's prince title is a birthright and cannot be taken away, the Duke of Sussex title was a gift from Her late Majesty upon his marriage to Meghan in 2018. Mountbatten-Windsor is the familial surname of the royal family.
The couple's daughter, Princess Charlotte, and their son Prince Louis follow George in the line of succession. Harry will only be eligible to become king after his nephews and niece, so the likelihood of him ever taking the throne seems slim.
Prince George's birth certificate also lists her official occupation as Princess of the United Kingdom. Similarly, Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, could be called Princess Henry of Wales.
King Charles not removing Harry and Meghan's titles as he doesn't want to provoke them: Expert. Royal expert Johnathan Sacerdoti said Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are keeping their Sussex titles because the royal family doesn't want to escalate the family's "war".
Created in 1337 by King Edward III, the estate is worth around £1 billion ($1.2 billion), according to its accounts for the last financial year. Revenue from the estate is “used to fund the public, private and charitable activities,” of the Duke of Cornwall, its website says.
Meghan Markle had revealed that she did not know a lot about the Royal family and Prince Harry prior to meeting him. She admitted that whatever she knew about Harry was from what he had told her as opposed to reading it in the tabloids.
The monarch has no powers to remove titles and this would require an act of parliament.
One reason for this may lie in a statement their spokesperson released on Thursday: "The children's titles have been a birthright since their grandfather became Monarch. This matter has been settled for some time in alignment with Buckingham Palace."
Despite the fact that Harry has given up the HRH (His Royal Highness) title he still retains the right to the throne as he was born into the family. This is why Meghan can only become Queen Consort if Harry becomes King because she is not of royal blood.
As for why the Queen left Meghan out of her inheritance, Radar Online's source speculated that it could be due to either “practicality” or Harry and Meghan's drama with the British royal family in the years leading up to the Queen's death.
Princess Charlotte has been refered as "the richest kid in the world" due to her status as a member of the British royal family, which is one of the wealthiest and most prominent royal families in the world.
Not only does Prince William have more money than his brother, Prince Harry, for reasons that would cause any family to feud, but he's about to get even richer, too. Here's a breakdown of Prince William's net worth, and how his royal finances work.
Meghan Markle announced in her new Variety cover story that she does not plan to return to acting in the future, saying, “No. I'm done.
“No. I'm done," she said. "I guess never say never, but my intention is to absolutely not.” While Meghan might be done with the silver screen, it's likely that she'll be fictionalized in future movies and TV shows.
To become a bonafide “princess,” royal protocol dictates that one must either be born the daughter of the sovereign or a prince—or become a prince's wife, and therefore take his title upon marriage. So, marrying Prince Harry won't technically make Meghan a true princess.
