Harry and Meghan’s Royal Website Profiles Shifted Down in Major Snub

The royal website has made a significant change to the positioning of Harry and Meghan's profiles, causing controversy and sparking rumors of new tensions within the royal family.

The couple's profiles have been shifted down the page, now sitting almost in line with Prince Andrew, which many interpret as a deliberate snub.

The page is assumed to be ordered by importance, and when viewed on mobile, King Charles III and Camilla Queen Consort are at the top, followed by the Prince and Princess of Wales, William and Catherine.

Next in line are the Earl and Countess of Wessex, Edward and Sophie, followed by hard-working Princess Anne.

Then come the minor royals, the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, the Duke of Kent, and Princess Alexandra.

Finally, the Sussexes appear on the page, followed by the disgraced Duke of York.

This positioning places Harry and Meghan closer to Charles, Camilla, William, and Catherine, but not at the top tier.

While this change has fueled speculation about strained relationships within the royal family, there has been no official announcement regarding any alteration to Harry and Meghan's positions.

However, it is believed that King Charles aims to streamline the royal family, prioritizing working royals.

Demoting Harry and Meghan could align with his plans.

Royal writer Richard Eadon described the change as a new snub for Prince Harry and Meghan, as they are demoted on the royal website, falling below the 56th in line to the throne.

The Sussexes' demotion received mixed responses on Twitter, with some users expressing satisfaction, stating that it is what the couple deserves.

Others called for the couple to lose their royal titles, emphasizing the need for clarity in distinguishing who officially represents the monarchy.

Royal biographer Phil Dampier suggested that King Charles is likely to make it clear to Harry and Meghan that they are not working royals and cannot have a semi-official role.

Dampier expressed concerns that the couple may be gradually phased out of the royal picture.

The hesitation surrounding granting prince and princess titles to Archie and Lilibet, as well as their demotion on the palace website, further indicates that they are no longer seen as working royals.

In his book, “Courtiers: The Hidden Power Behind the Crown,” royal author Valentin Lowe quotes a palace source who reveals that the late queen believed the Sussexes had to fully commit to their royal duties or not be involved at all.

The queen firmly believed that unless the couple was willing to abide by the restrictions imposed on working members of the royal family, they should not be allowed to carry out official duties.

This uncompromising stance has influenced the current situation.

Prior to the changes on the royal website, there were reports suggesting that King Charles plans to exile his younger son, mirroring actions taken by previous monarchs when faced with similar situations.

The new king is reportedly considering following in the footsteps of his predecessors, who dealt with the dramas caused by King Edward VIII.

As tensions continue to simmer within the royal family, the positioning of Harry and Meghan's profiles on the royal website serves as a visible reminder of the shifting dynamics within the monarchy.

While no official statement has been issued, the change suggests that King Charles is paving the way for a more streamlined and focused working royal family.
