Meghan and Harry Embrace Royal Titles for Their Children

In a significant move, and have confirmed that their children will now officially use royal titles.

This decision has stirred conversations across royal circles and among the public alike.

According to a royal source, the couple informed of their choice before announcing it to the world.

The revelation came to light following the christening of their daughter, Diana, where she was referred to as Princess .

A spokesperson for the couple shared with People Magazine that the christening took place on March 3rd, officiated by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, Reverend John Taylor.

This marks a notable moment for the Sussex family as they navigate their roles within the royal framework.

Under a patent issued by King George in 1917, only a select group is entitled to the HRH styling and the titles of Prince and Princess.

This includes the children of the sovereign's sons.

With ascending to the throne on September 8th, both and Lilibet became eligible for these titles.

However, despite this eligibility, there has been no official announcement from either the Duke and Duchess or Buckingham Palace in the six months since.

It's important to note that while the children can be called Prince and Princess, they won't be styled as His or Her Royal Highness.

Harry and Meghan stepped back from their royal duties in Spring 2020, relinquishing their HRH titles in an official capacity.

This move adds complexity to their current situation, as they balance their royal heritage with their desire for privacy.

Interestingly, the couple's communication with King Charles suggests that there remains a connection between father and son, despite previous tensions.

Reports indicate that Harry and Meghan extended an olive branch to the royal family by inviting them to Lilibet's christening.

Unfortunately, senior royals, including King Charles and Queen , did not attend the intimate ceremony held at the Sussexes' home in Montecito.

The christening was a small affair, attended by around 20 to 30 guests, including Meghan's mother and Hollywood producer Tyler Perry, who is considered Lilibet's godfather.

Following the ceremony, attendees enjoyed a lively reception filled with food and dancing, showcasing a warm family atmosphere.

The Duke and Duchess last visited the UK in September for II's funeral.

As they celebrate Lilibet's christening in California, speculation arises about their potential return for King Charles' coronation, scheduled for May.

A spokesperson confirmed that an invitation had indeed been extended to them for this historic occasion.

Reactions to the couple's decision to use their children's royal titles have been mixed.

Some royal commentators argue that this move contradicts their previous assertions of seeking a more private life.

On the flip side, others defend the choice as a nod to tradition and respect for the monarchy.

Regardless of the differing opinions, it appears that Harry and Meghan are committed to moving forward with their lives as private citizens while embracing their children's royal heritage.

The couple seems to be carving out a unique path, blending their royal connections with their desire for autonomy.

As the story unfolds, many are left wondering what this means for the Sussex family and their relationship with the royal family.

The world watches closely, eager to see how these dynamics evolve in the months ahead.

What do you think about this latest development?
