Prince Harry has been criticised by a royal commentator over the latest claims regarding his children’s HRH titles amid the latest passport row. The Duke of Sussex is involved in another alleged row with his family over his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet’s, passports.

Harry reportedly sought to change his family name after UK authorities “repeatedly delayed” issuing his children’s passports, with sources suggesting it was due to the HRH style (His/Her Royal Highness). Buckingham Palace strongly denied that the King or palace aides had anything to do with the delays in issuing their passports, while reports suggested that Harry and Meghan want to keep Archie and Lilibet’s titles so they can decide for themselves if they want to use them in the future.

However, Harry’s latest hopes were dashed after a new report by the Sunday Times which cited various royal sources, claimed that under Prince William’s reign, “roles for Archie and Lili as working royals are unlikely”.

Now, a group of royal commentators have blasted the Duke for wanting to keep the HRH titles for his children and said they will unlikely ever work in an official capacity for the Royal Family, as they are too “American”.

Royal expert Kinsey Schofield told Fox News: “It’s utterly absurd for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to believe their children might one day choose to become working royals.

Another expert, Helena Chard, said Archie and Lilibet do not have “any understanding of the British Royal Family.”

She told the outlet: “Prince William will not be thinking of giving the Sussex children formal future royal roles – ludicrous!.

“The children are being raised in America and, as I understand, do not have any understanding of the British Royal Family.”
