Royal Insiders Worry What Will Happen If Prince William Is Given Prince Harry's Military Titles
msn lifestyle ^ | 2/20/2021 | Kayleigh Roberts

Earlier this week, news broke that Prince Harry will lose his honorary military titles as his and Meghan Markle's royal exit becomes permanent. The decision, which was made the Queen and announced by Buckingham Palace, is thought to be a disappointment for Harry, who had reportedly been trying to work out a way to maintain his military titles after the royal exit. Royal insiders worry that if Prince William is given the titles, it will only put more strain on his and Harry's relationship. This week, Buckingham Palace announced that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will officially be removed from their royal patronages and that Harry will be stripped of his remaining honorary military titles in light of the couple's decision to make their royal exit permanent. In it's statement, the Palace explained: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have confirmed to Her Majesty The Queen that they will not be returning as working members of The Royal Family. Following conversations with The Duke, The Queen has written confirming that in stepping away from the work of The Royal Family it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service. The honorary military appointments and Royal patronages held by The Duke and Duchess will therefore be returned to Her Majesty, before being redistributed among working members of The Royal Family. While all are saddened by their decision, The Duke and Duchess remain much loved members of the family." The decision is said to be a sore spot for Harry, who had reportedly been working on a way to maintain his military titles after stepping back from his duties as a full-time working royal.

Remarkable how long the Brits put up with these inbreed layabouts.

Prince William can then preserve these titles until and if Harry re-enters the Royal fold.

This is a good thing.

William will have the discretion to re-grant them OR NOT.

She will be our problem

She is going to run for office. I suspect she wants a political dynasty.

Good chance she wins whatever office she runs for

I would expect nothing but a win for her if she runs in much of California. No worse than the filth that comes from there ( or any other blue states) now.

We definitely know who wears the pants between Harry and his wife. She ruined him, literally.

As if having to rent his own pony for the polo matches wasn’t already punishment enough.

I know he lost X income.

GB has this system that certain titles and work come with “Livings”

These are more livings. Looks like the Royal family have been slowly launching them onto their own.

I have to admit, I do like William and his wife. Nothing like Harry and what’s her name.
