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.

Do you think meghan will be a no show for Commonwealth Day?
Delta Blues. Classic -not for nothing.
They can’t use HRH.......her/his Royal Highness.
Certain people are, by fate, born into a royal family. as such, they are required to either accept their “fate” and perform certain inherited or “assigned” duties as required or completely abdicate and move on. These two are massively confused.
They will adopt the “Royal Pain in the Ass” brand
Definitely good advice - particularly in this day and age. It's contrary to my general feelings about love and marriage, but I've seen too many people get burned.
Another thing people should keep in mind is that if at the beginning of a relationship someone showers you with adoration and affection, and treats you as though you are the most amazing person in the world, you should be wary. It could be genuine, or it could be someone with a significant personality disorder who will just as easily make you out to be a demon later on - and turn on you.
Prince Harry picked a sorry leftist loser of a wife. He’s a Royal Dope.
Meghan dropped the BLACK brand
She thinks she passed
Like father, like son, it seems.
Will she be in your face you cant stop me or fear being rejected by the UK public that she rejected because it will hurt her brand, etc.
No clue.
She is about to get booted from the Acting Patronage that the Q gave up to let her have it.
Will she even let Archie go to the UK.
She is the epitome of the concept of Ugly American
That’s the funny thing.......they have no problem taking the money. Make them pay for everything themselves. Including the ridiculous security.
Marble doesn’t just burn bridges. She nukes them out of existence.
Could not agree more
The fact this is even newsworthy is ridiculous
She just wants to start a “Duchess of Sussex” social media advice site for young women and sell t-shirts and cosmetics. “Meghan’s Musings” won’t attract as many eyeballs. :)
No way she will allow Archie to go to UK. Notice MM used the word territory. I dont think Queen has control of term Royal in the USA.
Is Meghan still applying for for citizenship. She might go to UK as it counts toward time tbere.
I doubt I just think the real Harry is revealed. It doesn’t take a rocket scientist to realize that Markle is just Hollywood trash. That perpetual fake smile and her past history. They deserve each other

Yes Muslims will want that money for themselves.
Good one :)
So, they have to hang up their own coats?
