After what happened in Paris, it’s impossible to ignore the obvious: Meghan Markle should lose her title as the Duchess of Sussex.
Her presence at Paris Fashion Week was far more than a simple appearance — it was a clear demonstration that she continues to use the weight of the British monarchy as a tool for self-promotion, even after renouncing her royal duties and life within the institution. A royal title is not a trophy of status.
It carries tradition, duty, and responsibility. When Meghan chose to leave the United Kingdom and live as an independent celebrity, she should have also left behind the title that represents everything she rejected — service and loyalty to the Crown. Continuing to use it is a contradiction that weakens the very meaning of the institution she walked away from.
The episode in Paris marked a breaking point. While Meghan tries to maintain global influence using the prestige of a royal title, the image of the monarchy is being used as a shield and a showcase — and that must come to an end.
The British Royal Family cannot continue to serve as a platform for those who turned it into personal marketing. 💬 And consequently, it’s inevitable to acknowledge that Prince Harry, as her husband, obviously also needs to lose his title. He chose to follow the same path, distant from the duties and traditions he once vowed to uphold.
If they want to be independent, then they should be completely independent — without privileges, without titles, and without the prestige of an institution they no longer represent. Do you agree that the time has come for Meghan Markle — and inevitably Prince Harry — to stop being called the Duke and Duchess of Sussex?
