The Queen has no plans to strip the official titles of Duke and Duchess of Sussex from Harry and Meghan – but the couple will lose a string of patronages.

The pair remain His and Her Royal Highness, although they are not permitted to use those titles on a day-to-day basis as they are no longer working members of the Royal Family.

A spokesman for the Sussexes said there was ‘absolutely no question’ they had wanted to retain the positions they had lost, adding: ‘They do respect the decision but they always made clear

they were committed to doing the roles.’

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will have to relinquish their roles with a number of organisations including Harry's presidency of the Queen's Commonwealth Trust. Pictured: Harry and Meghan

Among patronages Harry must give up is his role with the London Marathon Charitable Trust

Palace sources told the Mail that official positions were ‘simply incompatible’ with the couple’s new commercial careers in the US.

However, stripping the couple of every vestige of their old lives – including the Sussex titles – was not an option for the Queen.

Palace insiders believed it would be ‘unduly punitive’ to take away the couple’s HRHs.

Such a step could have provoked uncomfortable comparisons with Harry’s mother Diana, Princess of Wales, who lost her HRH after divorcing Prince Charles.

A source told the Mail: ‘They are still the Duke and Duchess of Sussex and Your Royal Highnesses, although they won’t be using the latter. That was agreed last January and nothing has

changed.’

Of the duke, they said: ‘He was born Prince Harry and will always be Prince Harry, while the [Sussex title] was a wedding gift.

Although he will keep HRH, Harry will give up his patronage role with Rugby Football League
