A royal warning to Meghan Markle: enough with the false titles. The King of England has a stern message for Meghan, Duchess of Sussex: enough with the false royal titles.
In a strongly worded statement issued from Buckingham Palace, His Majesty made it crystal clear that Meghan does not possess any official royal titles and her continued claims otherwise are misleading the public and damaging the reputation of the British monarchy.
But before we continue, please subscribe and turn on the notification bell for updates. It has come to our attention that Miss Meghan Markle has on numerous occasions referred to herself using titles that she is not rightfully entitled to, the statement read. This is an unacceptable deception that we can no longer ignore. The duchesses, princesses, and potential future queens of the United Kingdom are selected through heritage, marriage, and the direct line of succession, not by one’s own personal branding or media narrative.
The statement went on to outline the key reasons why Meghan’s use of unauthorized royal titles is problematic and simply cannot be tolerated. Lacking the proper qualifications, first and foremost, Meghan Markle does not actually hold any official royal titles. Under British royal tradition and law, the titles of princess and queen are reserved for those born into the royal family or married to those in the direct line of succession to the throne. Meghan, having married Prince Harry, who is sixth in line to become king, does not qualify for either of these titles.
While the Duchess of Sussex is certainly a member of the extended royal family through her marriage, she is not in the line of succession and therefore does not have the birthright or legal standing to be referred to as a princess or a future queen, the statement emphasized. The King made it clear that Meghan’s persistent use of these titles, such as referring to herself as Princess Meghan on her Archewell website biography, is simply inaccurate and an attempt to misleadingly inflate her status, damaging the monarchy’s reputation.
The second major issue cited by the palace is how Meghan’s false royal branding damages the overall reputation and credibility of the British royal family. When the Duchess makes public statements or appearances using unauthorized titles, it blurs the lines between her actual non-royal status and the carefully guarded roles of those who are legitimately part of the monarchy. The monarchy is an institution built on tradition, heritage, and the highest standards of honor and dignity, the statement read. When individuals who are not officially part of the royal family start parading around using princely titles, it cheapens the value of these honors and titles. It’s a disservice to the British people and an insult to those who have rightly earned their place in the succession.
The King went on to note how Meghan’s false royal branding has already led to confusion and misinformation, with many members of the public erroneously believing she is a princess or a future queen. This could undermine public trust in the monarchy and breed resentment toward the Duchess of Sussex. A warning of legal action: in closing, the palace statement made it explicitly clear that if Meghan Markle does not immediately cease using unauthorized royal titles, she will face serious legal consequences. We hereby demand that Ms. Markle refrain from any further misrepresentation of her status or relation to the British royal family, the King stated. Continued violation of these rules will leave us with no choice but to pursue formal legal action to protect the reputation and integrity of the Crown. The statement warned that this could potentially include charges of fraud, defamation, or breach of copyright if Meghan persists in falsely associating herself with the royal family through the use of their protected titles and imagery.
The people of the United Kingdom deserve honesty and transparency from public figures, not an intentional campaign of misinformation, the King concluded. We hope Miss Markle will do the right thing and comply with these reasonable requests. The monarchy will not idly stand by as our heritage is exploited for personal gain. Only time will tell if Meghan Markle heeds this stern warning from the King, but it’s now abundantly clear that the gloves have come off and the palace will not tolerate any further efforts to deceive the public about her true non-royal status. The future of the British monarchy may very well hang in the balance.
Meghan Markle’s unconventional four-word response after King Charles offered to walk her down the aisle
Meghan Markle ‘s four-word response after the now- King Charles offered to walk her down the aisle was rather sweet – yet quite unconventional.
Six years ago to this day, Meghan walked down the aisle at St George’s Chapel in Windsor to marry Prince Harry. The Sussexes tied the knot in the chapel at Windsor Castle, with them surrounded by their friends and loved ones as the world watched the televised event.
But before she made it down the aisle, the news that Meghan’s father Thomas was not attending made headlines. And because Thomas did not attend, and because there was no invite for her Air Force veteran uncle Michael, the then-Prince of Wales offered to walk her down the aisle.
The couple tied the knot in 2018
Her reply was not quite what he expected: “Can we meet halfway?”, she asked, according to a biography of The Queen by Robert Hardman. The response “was an indicator that this was no blushing bride, but a confident, independent woman determined to make a grand entrance on her own”, the author noted in the tome.
Meghan famously walked herself halfway down the aisle before meeting her father-in-law-to-be who then accompanied her for the second half of her journey to meet her groom. And when Meghan reached Charles, he had a tender six-word question for her.
Upon meeting Meghan at St George’s Chapel in Windsor Castle, Charles said: “You look lovely, are you OK?” As Meghan entered the chapel surrounded by sunlight, guests gasped in awe. Charles then met Meghan halfway down the chapel, escorting her to Prince Harry.
When Meghan reached Harry, he gushed: “You look amazing, I missed you.” Harry then said to his father: “Thank you pa.”
While Harry was surrounded by many members of the Royal Family, Meghan’s mother, Doria Ragland, had flown from California and was the only member of her family present. Meanwhile, Meghan’s father Thomas did not attend saying he wanted to spare the couple any embarrassment after an incident that saw him pose for paparazzi pictures as he prepared for the big day.
Since getting hitched, Harry and Meghan have moved from England to America. They have resided in Montecito, California for almost four years, with their move across the pond coming just mere months after they announced they would be stepping down from their roles as senior working members of the Royal Family.
