Allegedly.. Meghan Markle Is 'Preparing To Sue' Prince William.. Meghan Markle's legal battle: Prince William title cuts threaten Sussex business empire

This extraordinary move, according to well-placed royal sources, stems from a palpable and growing fear that Prince William, once he ascends to the throne as King, may move to strip the former actress of her title, Duchess of Sussex.

This possibility has become terrifyingly real for the Californian-based royal following the recent, highly publicised, and definitive actions taken by King Charles III against his own brother, Prince Andrew. The King formally and unambiguously stripped Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor of all his remaining royal titles, styles, and honours in October 2025, an unprecedented move designed to 'slim down' the monarchy.
This decisive act, reportedly urged on by William and Catherine, the Princess of Wales, has served as a stark and worrying pre-cursor for Meghan.

She is not prepared to wait for a fate similar to her disgraced uncle-in-law.
'Meghan's not taking any chances and she's willing to fight to keep her title,

Omg…

I think if William does want to remove any titles / styles (btw, can anyone explain the difference to me?) the best thing he could do is keep HRH for working royals.

That would mean Princess Anne / Edinburghs / Duke of Kent and Gloucesters if still alive would be fine, as obviously had been working royals throughout their lives.
No HRH for Beatrice / Eugenie / Sussexes.
No HRH for Charlotte / Louis until decision at adulthood if they wanted to be working royals
Possibility of HRH for Louise/James if they are working royals in the future.

It would be a clear indication that anyone without HRH is not a working royal, so not making a formal 'royal visit' to any country (would reduce risk of diplomatic confusion).

I don't see any benefit at present to removing the Sussex title - it's irrevocably associated with them, so would just be a lot of noise for little benefit. The idea of Meghan potentially trying to sue is just hilarious.

Anyway amusing as it is to debate this probably false gossip, Meghan cannot sue for her titles.
1 they are her husbands and hers are a courtesy only.
3 they are gifted and belong to the U.K. monarchy.
4 it would be Charles who would do it , William would only do it if he was king , and you can’t sue the monarch.
5 she can’t sue from the us because it’s a republican country who eschewed any contact to the crown, the U.K. and titles many years ago , no real solicitor would touch or risk reopening that can of worms.

Like what?

Harry was not my queen who was the ‘dignified’ part of the checks and balances on power.

With great power and wealth comes responsibility. Where was the late Queen’s responsibility in this?

I read one of the daughters has been given a job to do by Charles. So the ‘girls’ aren’t out in the cold.

Beatrice - Outward Bound - 9th November.

Further down, the article addresses how the government are urging AMW to go to the US and speak to the Congressional Oversight Committee, investigating the Epstein Files, who have requested to speak with him.

Andrew is unlikely to go of course, imo.

Whilst i think Andrew should speak to the Americans I wouldn't be going there in person if i were him. It's really obvious that so far they would rather pursue him than any of the many Americans who knew Epstein and Trump is so unpredictable it would be stupid to put himself in their jurisdiction.

Yes. It is shocking. It seems the Nazi beliefs never went away. They just went underground for a while. More than 70 years after we thought, hoped, it had been defeated and now we have some god awful politicians and would be politicians, encouraging the rise of nazism again. In the UK, across Europe, the US.

I don’t think it’s obvious with the Congressional Committee Investigation. They have said that they are investigating everything they have access to and everyone mentioned. Andrew is I think, one of many.

The congressional committee has said it had no problem bringing down any Democrats that are involved. They are going after everyone.

The DoJ investigation is a different thing. Trump, and his loyal helper (for now) Bondi, have indicated it will investigate the Democrats involved.

Time will tell and I hope you are correct.

Bullshit clickbait, come on op you’re cleverer than this surely

I’m interested in why he might do that and wether it would be a good move.

I think W is highly likely to make a move on the Sussex titles and while his primary motive might be painted as revenge in some circles on balance it would be a PR win for him with the wider public.

I’m not convinced-I’m inclined to think that by the time it happens very few people will be interested in the Sussexes any more and W taking dramatic action will just stir it all up again. Particularly as he won’t be able to act until some time after his coronation or it will look like revenge.

I agree. I think it's the press keeping them alive. They don't have to report on every single thing they do, dragging up stories from years ago every time, making things up from 'Royal sources'. I think once people stop reading and commenting on them the papers wont print as much. However, I also think that the Meghan and Harry cottage Industry not only gives lots of people publicity and cash ( ex staff members, Royal sources, Royal commentators etc) but also keeps the heat off other members of the RF. I think it suits the Royals to have their resident 'But Harry and Meghan' because it keeps the attention on Harry and Meghan and not on other things like Royal finances or what they are up to. This 'Harry and Andrew are equally bad' narrative is part of that.

People who think they are superior by dint of birth supporting people who think they are superior by dint of race? Not that surprising! The Intellectual classes were often descended from the aristocracy- they were the only ones with the money and time!

Problem is, if everything that have “done wrong” has happened under Queen Elizabeth and then King Charles, a King William suddenly taking the titles best part of a decade later would looks seriously petty and weak. It would look like William spent years stamping his foot about his brother, first to his grandmother and then his father, with his wishes being completely ignored and so had to wait until he had control to act. Then acting in a way both his father and grandmother would think was unnecessary.

He’d need a new scandal to justify it. And it would need to be a scandal, not just Harry saying he doesn’t like his family or a “legal but tacky” business plan.

There is no rationale, but Charles can get rid of them if he wanted to. He doesn't want to. Charles could 'slim down the Monarchy' as he said he wanted to by removing HRH's from everyone but the Monarch and heir, making sure he doesn't do to William what his mother did to him and leave him with a shower of shit to deal with. He hasn't done it because he doesn't want to. The person who you should be complaining to is the RF themselves.

How ids this not 'half in, half out'? Shes been hawking her title round the ME in her 'Tech consultancy' business and has been given a role by KC!

There's always going to be a degree of interest in the Sussexes though and even if it did stir things up again it'd be a nine day wonder in much the same way as Mr MW dropped off the front pages a week after his dramatic stripping.

I don't think W would wait until long after he gets the gig either. We've had lots of puff about how he intends to shake things up and do things his way. We've had years of inaction from both E2 and C3 making them look weak and indecisive and that's the last thing a W who seems to want to make a name for himself as a mover and shaker will want for himself.

We've now got both precedent and parliamentary means to do the deed and I think W will go for it.

Because it’s a charity role not a paid role .

But that would cause maximum controversy for minimal results.

It will 'de-HRH' the York girls and Archie, Lily. The Edinburgh kids show no sign of using the titles.

None of them can pass on HRH Prince/Princess.

Archie can pass on the Dukedom, it'll be one of about 25 non-royal dukedoms, none of which are particularly relevant to anything as a title (but some of whom have significant wealth and land - this doesn't apply to the Sussexes).

OTOH if they keep the title unless they blot their copy book it gives some incentive to keep their behaviour within reasonable boundaries.

It’s quite the statement of support of Beatrice isn’t it?

They can’t be expecting more scandals to break for the York girls then.

They can’t be expecting more scandals to break for the York girls then.

That's a triumph of hope over experience 😀

so true

I wasn't complaining. I was asking the poster I was talking to what her opinion was as to why the titles shouldn't be removed. HTH.
