Although the Queen has publicly shown her support for Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to step away from royal duties, there are new reports that claim she has taken the issue to heart.

...the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had released a statement regarding the issue where they confirmed that they would stop using the brand title “Sussex Royal.”

According to a Vanity Fair source, the monarch had been hurt by the drama on a personal level, and she generally preferred not to talk about Megxit.

The source added that the Queen had reached a point where she not only avoided thinking about it but she also just wanted everything to be over and done with.

Daily Mail added that the source, who had spoken to royal correspondent Katie Nicholl, mentioned that the Queen was afraid that the ongoing negotiations would cause some damage to the monarchy as an institution.

The report came days after Buckingham Palace revealed that Harry and his wife would no longer use the word “Royal” in any branding once they officially step down from their positions on March 31.

The Sun pointed out that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex had released a statement regarding the issue where they confirmed that they would stop using the brand title “Sussex Royal.”

This would mean that the couple would remove all signs of the branding, which appears on their website and Instagram, from spring.

A spokeswoman for the pair added that even the non-profit organization they intend to start would not be named Sussex Royal Foundation.

Despite their agreement to adhere to the Palace’s rules, Harry and Meghan insisted that neither the Queen nor the government had power over the word “royal.”

The couple also claimed that they had been treated differently from other Royal Family members while reminding observers that Harry remains sixth in line to the throne.

Unfortunately, many of those observers believed that the pair’s choice of words wasn’t helpful to either their public image or family relations.

In light of that, Daily Mail claimed that a royal insider had said that the couple had lost “all sense of perspective.”

Additionally, the source pointed out that the couple’s need for a new life required “sacrifices on both sides” thus they needed to be more careful with the way they dealt with the issue.
