Archie and Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor are now prince and princess after Prince Harry and Meghan Markle decided to give them royal titles. The Sussexes explained that it was their birthright, though if the two young children will be invited to King Charles’ coronation is still unknown.
Harry and Meghan have reportedly received an invite from the king to attend the coronation on May 6, but it’s yet unclear if they will join the celebration. One thing that seems to be set in stone is that Camilla’s grandchildren will all play significant roles on the big day.
One royal expert argued that Camilla’s decision might make royal fans angry. Another Palace insider, meanwhile, even suggested that Harry and Meghan chose to style their children prince and princess in retaliation
When Harry and Meghan left royal life behind, they did not renounce their royal titles. So the Duke remains in the line of succession, and his two children, Archie and Lilibet, are currently behind him at sixth and seventh in line for the throne.
The two Sussex children were listed as Master Archie Mountbatten-Windsor and Miss Lilibet Mountbatten-Windsor in the line of succession. But now, a considerable alteration has been made, which may give an idea of what the future could hold.
In early March, Lilibet Diana, who turns two in June, was christened by the Archbishop of Los Angeles, the Rev John Taylor. Her name is now Princess Lilibet Diana. Harry and Meghan, in a statement, said they believe the princess title is her “birthright.”
But was the change only to do with Harry and Meghan setting things to rights the way they see them in their eyes? Well, according to a royal expert, the timing of the announcement might have another explanation – and it’s one that concerns vengeance.
