The online presence of Archie Harrison, son of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, has mysteriously disappeared from the Royal Family’s official website just weeks after his title was updated to Prince.
Previously, the young royal had his own profile on the website, but it is currently untraceable.
In a recent update, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s son was officially recognized as Prince Archie of Sussex in the Successions section of the website.
Meanwhile, the profiles of his cousins, Prince George, Princess Charlotte, and Prince Louis, remain visible on the site, along with Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s pages.
Notably, Archie’s newborn sister, Lilibet, does not have a profile featured on the website following her birth.
This development comes amidst claims by a Royal commentator suggesting that Meghan and Harry’s decision to bestow their children with Prince and Princess titles has disrupted King Charles’ plans for streamlining the Royal Family.
King Charles reportedly intended to reduce the size of the monarchy once he ascended the throne after Queen Elizabeth II.
However, the decision to grant Prince and Princess titles to Meghan and Harry’s offspring may complicate this objective, as the Royal Family would not be as streamlined as envisioned by the King.
Furthermore, the recent conferment of new titles upon Archie and Lilibet has raised complexities regarding the Duke of Edinburgh title and its inheritance within the royal family.
Prince Edward, Queen Elizabeth’s son, was promised the Duke of Edinburgh title upon his marriage to Sophie in 1999.
However, the King’s intentions to withhold this title as part of his monarchy slimming plan were thwarted by the usage of Prince and Princess titles for Meghan and Harry’s children.
Royal expert Richard Eadon highlighted this shift, emphasizing that the King felt compelled to honor the promise made to Prince Edward due to the developments surrounding Archie and Lilibet’s titles.
Eadon further elaborated on the potential implications of these decisions, suggesting that the King’s actions may set a precedent for future title inheritances within the royal family.
Speculations arise regarding the inheritance of the Duke of Sussex title by Archie, as the King may seek to prevent such a transfer based on the handling of the Duke of Edinburgh title.
The intricate dynamics surrounding royal titles and inheritances continue to evolve, reflecting the complexities inherent in maintaining royal traditions and adapting to changing circumstances within the monarchy.
As discussions surrounding the Royal Family’s titles and succession plans unfold, the audience is invited to share their perspectives on these developments.
