The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have posted an extraordinary statement on their website claiming that the Queen does not own the word royal across the world after they were forced to drop their 'Sussex Royal' brand.
Harry and Meghan put a new statement on their own website hours after announcing they would stop using the word 'royal' in their branding after the Spring.
The statement said that while neither the government nor the Queen herself own the word 'royal' internationally, they would stop using the title.
The statement read: 'While there is not any jurisdiction by The Monarchy or Cabinet Office over the use of the word "Royal" overseas, The Duke and Duchess of Sussex do not intend to use "Sussex Royal" or any iteration of the word "Royal" in any territory (either within the UK or otherwise) when the transition occurs Spring 2020.'
They also appeared to complain that the palace is treating them differently to other family members.
The statement continued: 'While there is precedent for other titled members of the Royal Family to seek employment outside of the institution, for The Duke and Duchess of Sussex, a 12-month review period has been put in place.
'Per the agreement The Duke and Duchess of Sussex understand that they are required to step back from Royal duties and not undertake representative duties on behalf of Her Majesty The Queen.'
A spokesman for the couple first issued a statement to the media about their use of royal titles shortly after 7.30pm on Friday but around 10pm they shared a much longer statement on their website via their Instagram story.

Who are they referring to Beatrice and Eugenia who have real jobs? EDWARD and wife?
No comparison. Kate is a Brit. Was always respectful of the monarchy. She gave the Queen 3 beautiful grandchildren, whom they have shared with the public. Kate and Wil don’t write Instagram posts to the Queen.
Meagan is classless. I wonder if Harry has regrets?
Harry left his family, his home, his country, his military behind.
If they really wanted to get away and settle into a quiet life in Canada I could understand. But then why all the Instagram postings, the trips to Miami paid to tell strangers about your Mummy issues? They are as my kids would say fakes. Stay home and play with your son.
Meghan’s mockery tour continues.
The boy is just plain hoodwhipped!
I think you mean pus#ywhipped.
Interesting point!
‘Harry left his family, his home, his country, his military behind.’
What he left for gets old plenty fast...especially when THEY are calling the shots...and are obviously the “dominant” figure in the relationship!
Certainly not an equal relationship...looking in from the outside...so far...what has she given up? NUTHON HONEY! A career...ha ha! He’s out trying to buy her one now - no one wants to work with her once they get to know she’s carrying a knife (for the back)!! Yes, I suppose I have women issues...had a knife or two in the back over the years too! I apologize...have lived too long and seen too much...
Anyway this is not worth commenting on anymore
We have an election to win - GO TRUMP!!!!
She did give him a son.
I believe the crown would argue context, that the grifters are attempting to trade on a relationship they no longer have a right to. And as to someones posting elsewhere that trailer trash markle has a diary filled with juicy info? The Brits have plenty of 'specialists' that could make it.......and others disappear convincing manner.
That appears to true, very handsome...can’t figure out who he looks the most like? Very healthy...they should be very thankful for that alone!
I was unclear. Charles’ selfish childish behavior damaged the monarchy and it will fail after the Queen is dead.
Looks like Harry as a toddler. Coloring same as Harry and Thomas Markle. Has Meghans dark eyes. Has Charles protruding ears. I think Archie is crosseyed.
Come to think of it monarchs could relieve people of their titles and land as they desired.
What a devious, coniving, spiteful, toxic couple they are. All this for Harry to have a D grade vindictive actress at his side... The British people will not tolerate the Queen being undermined in this way as I see it. She is ‘Her Majesty’ the Queen after all.
Yes Harry’s always been ‘a little liberal douchebag’....
I found revealing Meghans apparent statements complaining to her inner circle that using the name ‘shouldn’t even be an issue in the first place and it’s not like they want to be in the business of selling T-shirts and pencils,’ ..added... ‘Meghan said she’s done with the drama and has no room in her life for naysayers, and the same goes for Harry.’
The friend added:.. ‘Meghan said the global projects they are working on speak for themselves and they chose that name to protect the royal name, not profit off of it.’
But, the insider added:.. ‘Meghan has told her inner circle that their success is inevitable with or without their current brand name.
‘She said regardless of the name, Harry and Archie have royal blood and no one can take that away. And that as a family, they will always be considered royalty.’
Disgusting !!
