Meghan Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, have demonstrated their brutal determination in their ongoing battle with the Royal Family, a fight they have chosen to continue for the next generation.
They have obtained legal documents to facilitate the drama and assert their rights in the ongoing conflict. This week, PEOPLE Magazine and The Guardian reported that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle were left frustrated after battling with British officials for more than five months, who repeatedly delayed the passport applications for their children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
The children who held dual nationality, American and British, had passports with the surname Mountbatten-Windsor. Prince Harry and Markle fought tooth and nail for new British passports to reflect their latest titles.
After King Charles III took the throne, Archie and Lilibet moved up in the line of succession and were also given the new titles of Prince and Princess of Sussex.
It has now been revealed why the Sussex couple was so determined to add the children’s titles to their passports. It is the first stone laid in a new battle set with Prince William and Prince George.
Sources close to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have revealed their desire for Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet to have the option of being working members of the royal family when they are older. This prospect adds yet another stunning twist to the ongoing saga.
The paper shared: “The Guardian understands that Prince Harry wants to keep the HRH titles for his children so that when they grow older, they can decide for themselves whether they want to become working royals or stay out of public life.”
Prince Archie is six years old, and Princess Lilibet celebrated her fourth birthday this week, which implies they will be adults during the reigns of Prince William and Prince George.
If the Sussex siblings were to decide one day to be working royals, it would not only be a personal choice but also a significant development that could reignite the conflict within the family.
Prince William has made it clear that he is finished with the Sussex family and does not plan to invite them to his coronation. That implies he will never want to work with his niece and nephew.
Note that Prince William and Kate Middleton have no contact or interaction with Archie and Lili. It is believed Prince William has never met or seen Lilibet.
Archie and Lilbet will put Prince George in a complicated situation if they ask him for jobs. Because, again, they have no bonds and have never met.
There is another issue that will present itself if Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet wish to be part of the monarchy: they are Americans, raised with no knowledge of the rules, protocols, and traditions of the century-old institution.
Markle did not do well with the royal way of living, so why would she and her husband expect it to be any easier for their American children?
