Royal commentator Lee Cohen believes the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s philanthropic trip to the Middle East was inappropriate as they are not working members of The Firm.
“As long as Prince Harry and Meghan Markle retain their titles, every overseas appearance carries an implied endorsement,” he wrote for GB News. “That is not opinion — it is a consequence. And Britain must not continue empowering a frivolous brand masquerading as a monarchy.”
“The remedy is obvious. Strip the titles. Remove the privileges. End the theatre,” Cohen continued. “If they wish to operate as entertainers of influencers, they may do so — but only as private citizens. No coronet. No rank. No implied authority.”

After stepping back from their royal duties in 2020, Harry and Meghan’s appearance in Jordan may confuse people who think it was an official visit from the British monarchy.
“The duo [Harry and Meghan] generate attention without authority, spectacle without responsibility, disruption without mandate,” he said. “They insist they are private citizens. Very well. Then relinquish the public instruments of rank. A duke conducting freelance diplomacy is constitutional nonsense, a recipe for confusion abroad and embarrassment at home. Titles are not props. They are instruments of the state.”
With The Firm at risk after Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor‘s arrest, there isn’t any room for more scandal. “At a time when the monarchy faces serious reputational pressure, the last thing the royal family needs are two royal turncoats jetting to the volatile Middle East, exploiting titles they have abandoned in spirit but cling to in practice, and staging a parallel court for relevance and personal glorification,” Cohen said.

This is far from the first time people have demanded that the Spare author and the Suits actress have their honors revoked.
“They rarely visited Sussex even before they abandoned the UK for California and on our County Day, they have again shown no interest in Sussex,” former Sussex Prime Minister Tim Loughton told MailOnline.
“Yet again, the interest of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex in the county from which they continue to use their title has been underwhelming to say the least,” he continued. “It is time we had a Duke of Sussex who has a genuine interest in our County and wishing Sussex residents a happy Sussex Day is hardly a tall order.”
