After stepping back from royal duties, Harry and Meghan’s children—Archie and Lilibet—now officially hold royal titles. The change came after King Charles became monarch, aligning with King George V’s 1917 rules.
While Buckingham Palace updated the titles online, the couple won’t use them daily. A spokesperson said Archie and Lilibet will choose when they’re older. For now, “prince” and “princess” are for formal use only.
The children live in California, mostly out of the spotlight. They haven’t been seen much since the couple’s Netflix series. It’s unclear if they’ve met their UK cousins.
Though distant from royal life, Princess Eugenie remains close to Harry and has visited the family in the U.S., possibly keeping some family ties alive.

Princess Diana’s former butler, Paul Burrell, claims Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet are being “cast out” of royal life through no fault of their own.
Speaking to the Mirror, he said the children may one day ask, “Why weren’t we part of that world?” despite being prince and princess by title.
“They didn’t choose this—Harry and Meghan chose for them,” he said, adding that the children are being denied their royal heritage.
