King Charles will not strip Prince Harry and Meghan Markle of their royal titles for one major reason, according to an expert.

The couple, who tied the knot in 2018, were bestowed the titles by the late Queen Elizabeth II at the time of their wedding. Harry, 40, and Meghan, 43, now reside in California with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet. The pair stepped down as senior working royals at the start of 2020.
This story is especially powerful because it combines several things the public always clicks on: Harry and Meghan, children, titles, and the King. Add the word “devastated,” and the headline becomes almost impossible for gossip outlets to ignore. But emotional language does not make a claim true.
Prince Harry has long argued that his children should be protected from the same media pressure that affected him and Meghan. So even a rumor about their titles is likely to feel personal and painful, whether or not it has any basis in reality. That is why these stories spread so quickly and provoke such strong reactions.
