Turns out they wanted the status titles all along, just not the 'life of service.
There's class. And if you have none, you might be Meghan and Harry.
The "non-working" royals, as the matter is delicately put, are in a snit these days because now that the queen is dead, they didn't get the spoils they thought they were entitled to:
According to the New York Post:
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s kids will not be given His and Her Royal Highness titles — leaving the exiled couple once again “furious” at the royal family over the snub, according to a report.
Harry’s dad, the new King Charles III, has agreed to soon bestow the titles of prince and princess on his California-based grandkids, Archie, 3, and Lilibet, 1, according to the Sun.
But after a week of tense negotiations, he has refused to allow them to be known as HRH, titles that were stripped from their podcasting parents after they abandoned the family and the UK in 2020.
“That is the agreement — they can be prince and princess but not HRH because they are not working royals,” one insider told the UK paper.
The decision follows “a lot of talks over the past week” since Harry’s dad became king the moment his 96-year-old mother died last Thursday.
“They have been relentless since the Queen died,” the insider said of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, saying they “have been insistent that Archie and Lilibet are prince and princess.”
So what are we reading here? That they want the titles and status of royalty, nice high royalty, not some Ruritanian eurochicken title from some long gone dynasty, but don't want to put the work in of being royalty.

It amazes me that the citizens of England are agreeable to live this fairy tale! And pay these people for doing absolutely nothing!
This says it all. They want the titles, they want the publicity. They just don't want to do those boring ribbon cuttings or visiting hospitals, etc.
Perhaps they should move to Martha's Vineyard. They would fit right in with all the other hypocrites.
In the case of the royal idiot and the royal (by marriage) attention whore (and without the attention adjective as well) whore, they say stupid things and get their pictures in the tabloids.
As my late father used to say: "The bride at every wedding, the corpse at every funeral."
Should be the textbook example of cognitive dissonance: “Those royals are all racists and treated me horribly, BUT GIVE ME MY DAMN TITLE!!!
I don’t think k America wants her.
LOL!!
When’s the last time they’ve seen their kids? They’ve been in UK for almost 2 weeks? Have they flown them in?
Does the Crown have its own DNA tracing service? 23 & We?
Just legally change Lilibet's name to 'Princess.' Problems solved. And I ain't even one of them 'smart' Royals!
Well, nobody will speak to her. They know that whatever they say will be twisted and then tattled to the press.
So I guess she’ll have to make it up out of whole cloth - as she’s always done.
Update...
Looks like they’re playing chicken...
I wouldn’t mess with King Charles right now. He’s never held a job before, and it’s throwing him for a loop, LOL!
Megain won’t rest until Harry gets parliament to change their laws and make her a princess too. Just watch.
At this point, Harry has no power to get Parliament to do anything. Even a lot of the liberal-minded seem to despise him and his classless behavior.
I guess it lowers their marketability.
They wanted out of Royal life because they did not like having to do the work, but still want the titles.
It’s why they wanted out - or more specifically Meghan - because of all of the work they were actually expected and required to do. Apparently she thought it was all wealth, glitz, and glamor and not having to work.
Took a healthy snit just this morning.
There’s no excuse for that. I’m sure she was made well aware that she was marrying not just a man but an institution, and that things would be expected of her.
She just didn’t have the stuff. (Claims to be an actress, but flunked at the role of a lifetime...)
