Harry & Meghan’s exit from royalty strips their “Royal Highness” titles

Unprecedented in Megxit

There is no such thing, it turns out, as being a part-time royal. The severance deal that Buckingham Palace announced for Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan, is most remarkable for how clean a break the royal family is making with two of its most popular, if disaffected, members – much more severe than the couple apparently expected. Under the terms of the agreement, the couple will no longer use their most exclusive titles, His Royal Highness and Her Royal Highness, will forgo public funding of their activities and will repay more than $3 million for the refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage, their residence on the grounds of Windsor Castle. – NYT
