"I've been very lucky. The Earl and Countess of Wessex's daughter, Lady Louise Windsor, and son, Viscount Severn, as the children of the son of a monarch, were allowed to be known as princess and prince. Meghan said she and Harry wanted Archie to be a prince so he would have security and be protected. He repeatedly stressed the importance of wanting to be seen as normal and confessed in 2017 that he once "wanted out" of the royal family - a wish that became a reality in 2020. If Harry and Meghan decide that Archie and Lili will be known as a prince and a princess, this will stand in direct contrast to how Harry has always spoken about the burden of having a title. Zara, who grew up as Miss Zara Phillips, was not entitled to be an HRH because she was born in the female line as the offspring of the daughter of a sovereign. Although he was a great-grandchild of the monarch, he was not a first-born son of a future king, so was not automatically a prince. To do so, he will have to issue a Letters Patent amending Archie's right to be a prince and Lili's right to be a princess. In 2021, it was suggested Charles - in a bid to limit the number of key royals - intended, when he became monarch, to prevent Archie becoming a prince. His younger sister, Lilibet "Lili" Mountbatten-Windsor, is also entitled to be a princess following the death of the Queen and with her grandfather, the Prince of Wales, becoming King. The rules set out by King George V in 1917 mean Archie and Lili - as the children of a son of a sovereign - also now have an HRH style if they choose to use it. The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's son, Archie Mountbatten-Windsor, is now technically a prince - a title which Meghan controversially claimed was previously denied to him because of his race.
