In the event of Prince William's death occurring before King Charles's, Prince Harry would still not be the next choice for King, instead that honor would move on to Prince William's eldest son, Prince George.
At present, Harry is fifth in line to the throne and this is a birthright 'privilege' that cannot be revoked without an Act of Parliament being in place.
All of these changes to the Royal order beg the question is Harry still a prince? Well, technically, the answer is yes. Harry is still a prince by birthright and is still in the line of succession to the throne, but it isn't as simple as that. Sign up to British Heritage Travel's daily newsletter here!
After Prince Harry and Meghan announced their step back in January 2020, Buckingham Palace said they would no longer use their HRH (His/Her Royal Highness) titles, as they were no longer working members of the royal family.

Royal Inheritance
Representatives told Forbes in 2021 that Harry was not a beneficiary of any of the $100 million left to the royal family by his great-grandmother, the Queen Mother.
The last person to hold the title Queen Consort was the current queen's mother. When her husband King George VI died in 1952 she was officially re-styled Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother. If William dies before Kate and their son Prince George becomes king, Kate will then become the Queen Mother.
According to The Mirror, the royal family has apparently discussed at length stripping Harry of his title. Though Harry's prince title is a birthright and cannot be taken away, the Duke of Sussex title was a gift from Her late Majesty upon his marriage to Meghan in 2018.

Assuming that Charles will one day make a similar announcement for his own son and daughter-in-law and also keep with tradition, Catherine will also take on the title of Queen Consort of The United Kingdom.
From 2018 to 2018, Harry's annual allowance from Duchy, which he shared with Meghan, was £5 million or $6.9 million. This paid for Harry and Meghan's public duties as working members of the royal family, such as wardrobe and travel, as well as private costs.

Can Harry and Meghan legally lose their Duke and Duchess titles? Legally, the monarch has no powers to remove a family member's royal titles - it would require an act of parliament to actually happen.

Why isn't Kate called Princess? Even though Kate's mother-in-law was legendary 'Princess Diana', she is not a princess just because she married Prince William. To become a Princess, one has to be born into the Royal Family such as Prince William and Kate's daughter, Princess Charlotte of Cambridge.
As for why the Queen left Meghan out of her inheritance, Radar Online's source speculated that it could be due to either “practicality” or Harry and Meghan's drama with the British royal family in the years leading up to the Queen's death.
