Serious discussions are taking place within the Royal Family regarding the potential stripping of Prince Harry’s current title, the Duke of Sussex, according to revelations in a new book by royal author Robert Jobson.
In his upcoming book “Our King Charles III,” Jobson unveils shocking claims about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, suggesting that senior officials believe Harry has abandoned his royal roots.
The book, set to be released on Thursday, suggests that there are considerations to officially demote the Duke of Sussex’s title to Mr Mountbatten-Windsor of Montecito, California.
Despite these discussions, the book asserts that King Charles is hesitant to support the removal of Harry’s royal title, as he maintains a deep affection for his son.
Jobson’s extract published in the Daily Mail reveals that the notion of stripping Harry of the Duke of Sussex title has been deliberated at the highest echelons.
While the King appears reluctant, other senior figures are less forgiving.
The book hints that if Harry continues to criticize the monarchy, King Charles may face mounting pressure to address the situation, potentially tarnishing his reign.
According to insider sources cited in the book, Harry has been likened to a victim of Stockholm Syndrome, with Meghan being blamed for the rift between the Sussexes and the royal family.
Following their decision to step back from official royal duties and relocate to Montecito, California, tensions escalated.
Allegedly, Harry’s insistence on bringing Meghan to Scotland without prior notice shocked the family, indicating a growing divide.
The couple’s public criticisms of the royal family in interviews with Oprah Winfrey and through Harry’s memoir and docuseries have further strained relations with senior royal officials.
In a poignant revelation, it is disclosed in Jobson’s book that Princess Diana described accompanying the couple on a walk around Windsor after the Queen’s passing as one of her most challenging experiences.
A senior aide quoted in the book suggests that while some attribute the fallout to Meghan Markle, Harry’s pivotal role in the situation should not be overlooked.
Initially, there were jests within the palace about Harry being held hostage by Meghan, but now it is perceived that Harry has chosen to distance himself from his heritage.
The rift between Harry and the royal family intensified when certain patronages were revoked following their transition away from senior royal roles in the UK.
Notably, patronages such as Meghan’s association with the National Theatre were returned to the Queen and reassigned to Camilla in March 2022.
While the Sussexes still retain private initiatives like the Invictus Games, which Harry established in 2014, the loss of official patronages underscores the strain in their relationship with the monarchy.
As the saga unfolds, the future of Prince Harry’s title remains uncertain, with tensions escalating between the Sussexes and the royal establishment.
The evolving dynamics within the Royal Family continue to captivate audiences worldwide, prompting speculation and debate about the implications of Harry and Meghan’s decisions.
