It’s taken just 45 days for a royal pipe dream to well and truly bite the dust. Last month, Harry and Meghan tried to bounce the ancient institution into giving them a ‘progressive new role’ as part-time royals, part-time money makers.
Harry’s 93-year-old grandmother doesn’t take kindly to being bounced or indeed being blindsided. With British regulations and royal rules on her side, the Queen has imposed her final restriction on the couple embarking on a self-imposed exile. Sussex Royal can be no more. A freshly branded website will have to be re-branded.
Their supporters will argue it’s no great loss.

Why is it so many saw this coming several years ago when Meghan suddenly appeared on the scene, but Harry did not. Most in the royal family I'm guessing saw this coming, and I'll bet tried like hell to break it up, but if one believed the British media, Harry was under some pressure to find someone to marry. Especially after William married and started having kids. So Harry found the first pretty face who could put up with him, and tied the knot.

"The Queen has crushed Meghan's 'Sussex Royal' delusion". There, fixed the headline.
Harry is a stupid fool conned by a manipulative narcissist! Still, he should have known better! My guess is that Meghan gets him all riled up and then he acts impulsively to pacify her. Had they continued to negotiate the break privately, I suspect they would have gotten a lot more of what they wanted.
Personally, I'm happy the Queen squashed these two like little bugs. They asked for it and she gave it to them publicly, just like they did it to her!

It is difficult to describe how little I care about this.

I'm betting Harry and Meghan won't appear next month. They are expected, but after the Queen put them in their places, I would not expect Meghan to ever return. Maybe Harry will still have the wisdom to show up, who knows, but I would bet his snarky wife will not and she won't let Harry take Archie if he does go! She's a Witch! The Queen sees right through her and has decided enough of this nonsense. If they don't want to be Royals and attend to their duties, then they're done! No part time Royals in her family! God save the Queen! I love her!

The QUEEN shows she has more 'grey matter' than Joe Biden.
When the little squirts attempt to take a family name in order to profit, the shoe lowers to splatter them. How sad Joe Biden never followed her stance in showing such integrity.

I think the 'Princess Meghan' line would be nice. She finally gets the be a princess. She can bug the Queen with a line of 'Colonial' furniture and accessories. Archie will appear in every commercial.

I doubt Meghan will show up for Commonwealth Day. She'll use Archie as an excuse, or claim some "illness" prevents her attendance. If he's smart, Harry will show up, but I'm not ruling out his absence as well.

How tiresome are the latest Windsor family soap operas with all of their competing PR camps. The British press had sorely missed
the profitable Diana vs. Charles wars. As with all gossip wars, it always takes a bit of time for the truth to emerge. I believed a lot of things the press said back then from all manner of “sources” which later turned out to be very wrong. So I will wait this one out.

As of this writing, the website is still up: https://sussexroyal.com/
The site is a very slick and expensive piece of nausea.

I suspect these two will end up with a "Go Fund Me" page where tools who can't afford it give them money.

I quit, but I want to keep using the company equipment for my own benefit. I can’t imagine why this didn’t work.

Their 'supporters'? - they have nothing except their previous positions by birth and marriage to maintain any sycophant hangers-on. Their brand will soon lie in the unsold dustbins of Target and The Dollar Store. They might could make it as greeters at Walmart?

The latest news, according to the DailyMail, is that the couple have told the Queen she doesn't 'own' the word Royal. This is getting interesting. Ms. Markle is outmatched in the brains department if she thinks she can out maneuver the Queen. She has been dealing with stupid people ever since her father inherited the crown.

Excuse the second post but I also meant to add that whoever is giving the Sussex's advice is not doing them any favors, whether it's Oprah, Ellen, Michelle or the Clooney's. Americans really don't understand how British Royalty works.

On reading their website, it appears they haven't gotten the queen's memo. What a pretentious bunch of horseschiff.

The primary objection to this should be that "Royal" is an adjective, not a noun.

If Sussex Royal is verboten because of the word Royal, what about Royal Dalton? How is that ok?

Harry and the Halfrican are in for a rude awakening if they try to fight the Queen on this. She has 300 years of British law on her side, and an army of solicitors to argue her case.

With a Queen, who can never be equaled, who suffers with a half-wit heir, who will drag the UK into every globalist scheme he can muster, while Parliament seeks to extract itself from EU machinations, and now the corrosive influence of a whorish American mongrel, whose lust for title has kidnapped the Queen's grandson and brainwashed him into abdicating his duty to Queen and country, has set the stage for Parliament to declare the Monarchy kaput. (...apologies for the run on sentence)
Britain will join Denmark, Sweden, etc. with a figurehead only empowered to procreate and attend state funerals.

#21. I found this notation on Wikipedia. Also, a search of Royal Warrant holders still lists Royal Doulton.
"In 1901 King Edward VII awarded the Burslem factory the Royal Warrant, allowing that part of the business to adopt new markings and a new name, Royal Doulton."
I presume the Sussex family will never get a Royal Warrant for their global and online activities.

I don't think this is Harry, I am thinking this is pure Markle at work here. Harry has to know that you do not exploit the royal status for personal gain.
