I can only imagine she&#8217;s now sitting there thinking, &#8216;What are we going to do?&#8217; Because without the titles, who is she? But she is betraying the royal family every time she uses the title.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;With the Sussexes&#8217; titles, it&#8217;s a rock and a hard place for the royal family. The only way to undermine Meghan&#8217;s status, although it would look like sour grapes, is to take away her title,&#8221; he continued. <\/p>\n<p>&#8220;It won&#8217;t happen during Charles&#8217;s lifetime,&#8221; he added. &#8220;He will only act on William&#8217;s pressure and there&#8217;s no reason ostensibly at the moment to strip them of their titles \u2014 they haven&#8217;t done anything embarrassing, other than using it to trade on. They would have to be very careful about how they do it, but I think it is inevitable.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><!-- AI CONTENT END 1 -->\n                        <\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.wonderwall.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Prince Harry and Meghan Markle should savor the time they have with their royal titles.
