Rumor has it that King Charles III could give Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s children the HRH titles they have been desperately longing for if Prince Harry doesn’t release his $20M bombshell memoir! Wow!

There has been a lot of discussion surrounding Prince Harry and Meghan’s children’s titles since King Charles III took the throne following the death of the late Queen Elizabeth II. While the palace was quick to announce Prince William and Kate Middleton’s new titles as they swapped their Duke and Duchess of Cambridge titles for their new Prince and Princess of Wales titles, with their children becoming Prince George of Wales, Princess Charlotte of Wales, and Prince Louis of Wales, Harry and Meghan’s children’s titles aren’t quite as clear, with sources hinting the palace is “stalling” for time.

According to reports, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s children – three-year-old son Archie and one-year-old daughter Lilibet – have inherited the right to be called Prince and Princess since their grandfather took the throne, but it was unclear whether they would also be granted HRH titles, due to their parents no longer being working royals since they stepped down in January 2020. Prince Harry, for example, is no longer referred to as His Royal Highness, Prince Harry since stepping down, although he is still allowed to use his Prince title.

Reports have previously suggested that the Sussexes are desperate for their children to have HRH titles due to the high level royal protection that comes with the title, so will they do whatever it takes?! “The book is the key to Harry’s future in the family. If the book goes away, Harry will be back in with the family. However, if the book is published, trust will be permanently damaged, and he will never again be welcomed into the new King’s inner circle,” a palace insider reportedly told RadarOnline.

“A line has been drawn in the sand. Now it is up to Harry,” the insider continued. “The choice could not be more obvious inside the palace. Harry picks his family, or he picks $20 million. That’s the price of being welcomed back into the fold. Having Meghan trash them is one thing, but having Harry do it is another. If he burns this bridge, he will never be able to rebuild it.”

Royal expert Katie Nicholl also addressed the memoir on the latest episode of True Royalty TV's The Royal Beat, while referencing the fact that Archie and Lilibet are both still listed as Master and Miss on the official royal family website, despite the King and the new Prince and Princess of Wales' titles already being updated. And whether their titles are changed, according to Nicholl, very much depends on whether the royal family can "trust" the Sussexes.

"One of the interesting things that came out in all of this was the speculation about titles, and Archie and Lilibet… whether they would officially be acknowledged as Prince and Princess, the titles owed to them when Charles became King," Nicholl said. "I'm told that that is a very clear signal from the King. He's willing to give those titles, but it comes with a caveat, and that caveat is trust," Nicholl continued. "They have to know that they can trust the Sussex family."

Interestingly, Prince Harry is said to be aware that the royal family will lose trust in him if he goes ahead with the $20M memoir, but as far as we know, he still has plans to release it, although he is reportedly making some last minute changes to it. Some insiders are hinting that it's down to the King's ultimatum, while others are suggesting that it's out of respect to his grandmother and his father's early days as monarch.

"He is afraid that he’ll come off insensitive and he’s afraid that there will be backlash if he releases some of these stories right after the death of Queen Elizabeth as his father King Charles is trying to start his reign on a high note," Kinsey Schofield told GB News. "We’re being told that he is hustling, trying to get some items removed, trying to work around some of the stories he’s told in his book," Schofield added. "However, that just might not be an option at this time, if he really does want that fall release date close to Christmas to get the Christmas rush, those pages may already be on the printer." Yikes!
