Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, were “surprised” by a letter sent on behalf of King Charles III that confirmed they remain nonworking members of the royal family after their return to Britain, a spokesperson for the couple told NBC News on Tuesday.
Buckingham Palace released the letter Monday, reiterating that Harry and Meghan remained nonworking royals as they have since they stepped down from royal duties in January 2020.
A palace source said the letter was issued to clarify the unchanged position of the couple for the British government and military amid questions over whether the public should fund their security.
It was put into the public domain because it likely would have leaked anyway and the palace wanted to avoid claims of secrecy around what it contained, the source said.
But a spokesman for Harry and Meghan told NBC News that they were “surprised” by the letter and were not given an opportunity to contribute to its contents.
The contents of the letter were shared with the couple’s staff a few hours before it was released, according to a spokesperson for the Sussexes. A Buckingham Palace source confirmed to NBC News that the letter had been shared with Harry’s team Monday.

Harry’s got to be asking himself WTF was I thinking marrying her? The fact that her Dad wouldn’t give her away on her wedding day told me all I needed to know about her.
Wonder what their next stunt will be? Stay tuned!

“were “surprised” by the letter and were not given an opportunity to contribute to its contents.”
letters are not usually written by the recipient or subject of the letter.
“were “surprised” by the letter and were not given an opportunity to contribute to its contents.”
What is there to contribute? The letter just stated that nothing has changed.

I think the Brit Royals meant "non-wanted" not nonworking.

And now, so is Spain.
“Markle, the awkward social climber. The pair have become an international embarrassment, a cautionary tale, very amusing though.”

Such an epic spectacle. A soap opera playing out on an international stage. Who’da thunk it?
But they aren't smart.
And I do not believe they are really surprised.
Laughable - and that goes to the very point of the letter.
Just another opportunity to play victim.
“Where’s the paparazzi when you need them?”

The monarch has to make sure that anyone who deals with them knows that the monarchy will NOT be drawn into litigation over their mismanagement.
If they get themselves dragged into court over financial or legal infractions, the crown will not bail them out and is in NO way a party to THEIR activities!
It's a statement the King should have put out LONG AGO!
“Harry and Meghan ‘surprised’ by king’s letter making clear they’re still nonworking royals”. Guess this means Harry is never going to be king.
She married a prince. Isn’t that what all women want?
It’s never enough.

First she knocks off the King. Now her Prince is King.
then she knocks off him.
Now she is THE Queen.
If any one asks, Psychosis.
Indeed. But they gain nothing by it.
The world wide privacy tour continues with a return to merry old England.
That ‘Hot Teacher’ is retired by now.
Corrected Headline:
“Harry finds out what being a SUBJECT feels like!”
