Yes, Prince Harry can still become King, but it's extremely unlikely as he is fifth in line, behind King Charles III, Prince William, and William's three children, requiring a highly improbable series of deaths or abdication from all those ahead of him; he remains in the line of succession but has stepped back from royal duties, and any potential return or change to his status would need significant legal or parliamentary action.
Yes, Prince Harry is still in the line of succession for the British throne, currently ranked fifth, after stepping back as a senior royal in 2020; he remains a prince and his children, Archie and Lilibet, are also in line. Although he relinquished his "His Royal Highness" (HRH) title and military roles, his place behind his brother, Prince William, and William's children (George, Charlotte, Louis) in the order of succession remains unchanged.
However, no paternity test has been undertaken and there is no evidence that Harry is not a Windsor. Anderson's book however is still stoking the rumours ten years on, he names witnesses who in fact say Diana and Hewitt were lovers before, not after, Harry was born.
Yes, Prince Harry can technically be removed from the line of succession, but it's a complex process requiring an Act of Parliament and the consent of Commonwealth Realms, not something King Charles III can do unilaterally, though his decision to step back from royal duties has sparked debate about it. While he remains in line (currently behind his children), removing him would set a precedent and necessitate new legislation to alter the established legal order, potentially affecting his descendants' positions as well.
Everyone's clicking on... In the event of Prince William's death occurring before King Charles', Prince Harry would still not be the next choice for King, instead that honour would move on to Prince William's eldest son, Prince George.
However there appears to be no plan for Harry to rejoin the royal family's public appearances, nor any desire on the duke's part to do so. It is understood that Harry does not want a “half-in, half-out” arrangement and did not ask the King for any such deal at the latest meeting.
When Prince William becomes King, if her husband King Charles has passed, Camilla will likely become the Queen Dowager, a title for the widow of a king, transitioning from her current Queen Consort role, and while still retaining high status and potentially patronages, her public duties and living arrangements (like residences) would be decided by William as the new monarch, paving the way for Catherine to become Queen Consort.
Harry and Meghan remain legally entitled to their royal titles. Using "Sussex" as their family name is allowed under royal convention. However, they agreed not to use the His/Her Royal Highness styling publicly and not to use the "Sussex Royal" brand for commercial purposes.
But as another of William's closest friends once told me, when it comes to relationships with the future king, “it is all about trust and loyalty”. William feels he has lost both with Harry and that may prove too difficult a roadblock to pass.
Meghan Markle has publicly shared that she experienced postpartum preeclampsia, a serious and rare condition involving high blood pressure and excess protein in the urine that occurred after childbirth, describing it as a "huge medical scare". She revealed this on her podcast, Confessions of a Female Founder, highlighting the life-threatening nature of the disorder, which can happen weeks after delivery and impact new mothers' ability to care for their newborns.
Long before she was a royal, Meghan Markle was asked in an interview whether she would date Prince William or Prince Harry, to which she offhandedly replied, “Harry, sure.” Now, the two are happily married with two kids.
Megan had a radical hysterectomy years ago so they must have used surrogates but if they didn't use Harry's sperm they won't be included in the line of succession. According to protocol all Royal babies are subject to DNA testing.
No one can blame him for the way that he feels. There's a new report that suggests if there's one person who would love to see Prince Harry back in the royal fold, it's his father, King Charles. That's because he wants him back more for personal reasons than anything else.
Anne, Princess Royal
Princess Anne is the Queen's second-born child, but she's below her two younger brothers in the line of succession because, as with Lady Louise above her, the 2013 Succession of the Crown Act doesn't apply retroactively.
Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor's departure from public life began when he surrendered his Duke of York title in October 2025. In the weeks that followed, King Charles III stripped him of his remaining titles, military honors, and HRH styling.
Prince William and Kate Middleton sleep in separate beds primarily due to the constraints of the Royal Train (which has only single beds) and as part of a long-standing aristocratic tradition of separate sleeping arrangements for better rest or privacy, though they likely share a bed at home, with their dog sometimes joining them for extra comfort, aligning with modern trends for "sleep divorce".
According to several sources like the Examiner, Camilla “will never forgive” Harry. “She's still livid over what he wrote about her” in his memoir Spare, “and what he said in follow-up interviews.” In Spare, Harry recounted how he viewed Camilla as a “villain” and how he felt when his father remarried.
The "baby brain" comment refers to a widely reported incident from Prince Harry's memoir Spare, where Meghan Markle allegedly told Kate Middleton she must have "baby brain because of her hormones" following Kate's birth of Prince Louis in 2018, causing a significant rift because Kate found the comment offensive, leading to a dispute about appropriate ways to speak within the Royal Family, although Meghan viewed it as a lighthearted comment she'd use with friends.
Meghan Markle's name was removed from Archie Harrison's birth certificate in 2019, changing it from "Rachel Meghan The Duchess of Sussex" to just "Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Sussex," as a move to align with royal protocol, similar to Princess Diana's birth certificate, though it sparked rumors of a "snub" to Kate Middleton and was described by Meghan's spokesperson as a Palace directive, not her own choice, adding complexity to royal naming conventions.
Meghan Markle has jumped 11 points in new polling data partially recovering from a major slump in her U.S. popularity during the first half of 2025. The Duchess of Sussex's fan base crashed 13 points during two quarters, according to ratings data from YouGov, while those who disliked her also increased in number.
Is Meghan Markle a princess or just a duchess? Meghan Markle is technically a princess because she married a prince. However, just like Kate isn't officially Princess Catherine but Princess William of Wales, Prince Harry's wife is not Princess Meghan.
Camilla didn't inherit anything. Those jewels are part of the state jewels. She can wear them but they're not hers. Camilla like others can wear the jewels but they are the British royal history.
All royals are expected to bow or curtsy to the sovereign and his wife, King Charles and Queen Camilla. Since he ascended to the throne, Prince William and Princess Kate have been seen formally greeting the monarch with a bow and curtsy on multiple occasions.
