As Prince Harry is Charles’ second son, his children were not previously guaranteed titles when Charles was Prince of Wales. But now that Charles is king, Harry and Meghan’s children are eligible! And it looks like they will grab the headlines – despite a source telling the Daily Mail in 2021 that “Harry and Meghan said Archie would never become a Prince, even when Charles became King.” However! Despite likely being named Prince/Princess in the near future, Archie and Lilibet will not be referred to as HRH (His/Her Royal Highness) – a big issue for Meghan and Harry. “Harry and Meghan were concerned about the security issue and being a prince and princess entitles them to certain levels of royal security,” a source told The Sun. “There was a lot of discussion last week.” Meghan and Harry are said to “insist that Archie and Lilybet are a prince and princess” but are “furious that Archie and Lilybet cannot take the HRH title. That’s the deal — they can be a prince and princess but not HRH because they’re not working royals.’ Note: Meghan and Harry stopped using HRH titles when they stepped down from senior royal duties. Buckingham Palace released a statement at the time, saying: “While they can no longer officially represent the Queen, the Sussexes have made it clear that whatever they do they will continue to support Her Majesty’s values. The Sussexes will not use their HRH titles. they are no longer working members of the royal family.” The story continues Meghan previously spoke about security issues surrounding Archie’s lack of a title in an interview with Oprah, saying: “They were saying they didn’t want him to be a prince or a princess, which would be different from protocol and they weren’t going to get security. This continued into the last few months of our pregnancy where I would go, “Sit down for a second.” They said [he’s not going to get security] because he is not going to be a prince. Okay, he needs to be safe, so we’re not saying don’t make him a prince or princess, but if you’re saying the title is what’s going to affect that protection, we haven’t created that monster. us regarding clickbait and tabloid fodder. You allowed this to happen, which means our son must be safe.” Charles has not made any public announcement about the titles so far, so it is still possible that Archie and Lilibet will be given HRH status.
