As the second-born son of King Charles III, Prince Harry and his wife Meghan are unlikely to receive a new title in the near future. Despite the couple’s recent move to the United States, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are expected to remain in their current titles for the foreseeable future.
The title of Duke of Sussex was bestowed upon Prince Harry in 2018 by his father, King Charles III, shortly before his wedding to Meghan Markle. The title is a rare one, having only been granted once before in history, to Prince Augustus Frederick, the sixth son of King George III.
Prince Harry and Meghan’s current titles are likely to remain unchanged until at least 10 September 2022, when Prince Harry turns 35. This is because, according to British royal tradition, a prince must be at least 35 years old before he can be granted a new title.
Prince Harry and Meghan have recently moved to the United States, where they are currently living in California. The couple have made it clear that they intend to remain in the US for the foreseeable future, but it is unlikely that this will result in a change of title.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have recently launched a new charitable foundation, Archewell, which is dedicated to helping people around the world. The couple have also signed a multi-year deal with Netflix to produce films and series for the streaming service.
Despite their new ventures, it is unlikely that Prince Harry and Meghan will receive a new title in the near future. As the second-born son of King Charles III, Prince Harry is unlikely to be granted a new title until he turns 35 in 2022. Until then, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will remain in their current titles.
