Title: Harry and Meghan Likely to Keep Duke and Duchess Titles Despite Controversy

The controversy surrounding Harry and Meghan's actions against the monarchy has not resulted in their titles being stripped, despite calls for it.

In early December, Conservative MP Bob Seeley proposed a bill inspired by laws from World War I, which denied German nobles their titles.

However, recent reports suggest that this may not be possible.

Seeley wrote an op-ed in the Times, stating that the Duke and Duchess should be referred to as Mr. and Mrs. Sussex like everyone else.

Many people agree with Seeley, as it seems unfair for Harry and Meghan to retain their titles while criticizing the monarchy.

The attacks on the royal family have been relentless since 2020 when Harry and Meghan stepped back from their official duties.

Instead of living independently as they claimed, they resorted to tarnishing Harry's family, fabricating lies, and revealing unnecessary secrets.

Understandably, this has upset many Brits who feel that the couple should not represent the nation.

Calls to strip Harry and Meghan of their Duke and Duchess titles have grown louder, especially after Seeley's op-ed.

It is important to note that has never discussed stripping Harry and Meghan of their titles.

Legally, he cannot do so, and many believe that out of respect for the late Queen, he would not take this action.

The titles were bestowed upon them by , and Charles may consider them inconsequential since Harry and Meghan no longer contribute to the monarchy.

It seems he prefers to avoid their complaints by allowing them to keep their titles.

Another royal expert, Tom Quinn, author of Scandal of the Royal Palaces, believes that Parliament would not pass a bill to remove Harry and Meghan's titles.

He argues that it would only cause more trouble and worsen an already difficult situation.

While stripping the titles may seem satisfying, it would provide Harry and Meghan with more ammunition for their grievances.

Quinn compares this situation to giving a lollipop to a whiny child at the grocery store, hoping it will stop their complaints.

Despite calls for action, there appears to be no authority capable of removing Harry and Meghan's titles.

Quinn explains that the titles are honorary and bestowed by the royal family, with no political weight or influence from the English Parliament.

This frustrating situation leaves many wondering if anyone can take away the titles.

Even though the late Queen gifted them, some argue that Harry and Meghan have abused these titles, warranting their removal.

However, Harry and Meghan are unlikely to willingly give up their titles as they believe it connects them to the royal family and secures their income.

Without their titles, they would simply be Mr. and Mrs. Mountbatten-Windsor, which lacks the prestige of Duke and Duchess.

Moreover, historical precedent suggests that titles are rarely revoked, even in extreme circumstances.

Edward VIII abdicated the throne but retained his title, despite his actions being far worse than Harry's.

It is unfortunate that Harry did not learn from history, as both he and Edward VIII made similar choices, resulting in strained relationships with their families and countries.

While some argue that stripping Harry and Meghan's titles may provoke an aggressive response, others believe it would demonstrate that the monarchy takes their actions seriously.

Additionally, concerns arise regarding the line of succession, as Harry, , and are still listed.

Removing them from the line of succession could prevent a potential crisis for the monarchy.

While removing the titles may be challenging, it is crucial for to consider the desires of his people.

Many are dissatisfied with his handling of the Harry and Meghan situation.

Although it may not be easy for Harry to rejoin the family, Charles should ensure there is always a way back for him.

However, it is essential to distinguish between honorary titles and the line of succession, as the latter carries significant weight.

The monarchy must address these concerns and take appropriate action to maintain its integrity.
