King Charles will not rock the boat between the royal family and the Sussexes. A royal expert said he would not do anything that would worsen the current situation between the royals and Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
King Charles Will Reportedly Not Remove Prince Harry And Meghan Markle's Title
British journalist and royal correspondent Jonathan Sacerdoti weighed in on the royal family's relationship with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex following the release of Spare and ahead of King Charles' coronation. According to him, the royals will not worsen the situation by removing the Sussexes' royal titles.
"The sense I get is that this is not something they want to do," Sacerdoti told Us Weekly about the removal of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's titles. "I think they're trying to calm things, not trying to throw more grenades — [they're] not trying to provoke any more than they're being provoked."
"Trying to remove their titles by the king would be seen as perhaps an aggressive move, or at least Harry and Meghan could dress it up that way. I think perhaps they're trying to spare us all of that misery as well. It's just not necessarily on their agenda. They want to get on with doing the job of the royal family and try and avoid that."
British Parliament To Pass A Law To Remove 'Bad Royals' Title
While King Charles has no intention to punish the Sussexes by removing their royal titles, Robert William Henry Seely, a member of the British Parliament, is aiming to pass a law allowing the Sussex's status to be downgraded.
"He's pressing ahead with his attempt to pass legislation that would allow Harry and Meghan to be downgraded as royals. He's planning what's called a Private Members Bill, which would allow a vote on taking away their titles," Sacerdoti said.
"It's aimed at dealing with what he called 'bad royals' to give support to the monarchy. He's clear that this is in no way designed to embarrass the King or the royal family on his part."
Richard Palmer, a royal correspondent for Daily Express and a regular interviewee on TV and radio for royal documentaries, previously said that the King is not on board with the removal of the Sussexes' royal titles. He reportedly refused to support an MP's effort to give the monarch the power to strip royal titles.
