What does their royal exit mean for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex — and the royal family?
Queen Elizabeth maintains that Meghan, Harry and her great-grandson Archie “will always be much loved members of my family.”
Meghan and Harry are now considered “financially independent,” as they are no longer receiving Sovereign Grant funding from taxpayers. As privately funded members of the royal family, they have permission to earn their own income and the ability to pursue their own private charitable interests. They are currently making plans for a new nonprofit organization.
When it comes to Harry’s military ties, he will retain the ranks of Major, Lieutenant Commander and Squadron Leader during a 12-month trial period. However, his honorary military positions will not be used. As was previously agreed upon with the Royal Family, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will no longer use the name Sussex Royal for their charitable organization, Instagram or website. “For now, there will be no additional information on their next steps,” said the couple’s spokesperson.
