King clarifies Harry and Meghan remain non-working royals
A palace letter says the Sussexes remain non-working royals and private citizens, with their charity work handled separately from the Royal Household.
- On Monday, the Lord Chamberlain stated on behalf of King Charles that there is "no change" to the status of Prince Harry and Meghan, confirming they remain non-working royals following their return to Britain.
- This clarification reinforces the 2020 "Sandringham agreement" established by the late Queen Elizabeth II, which stipulated the couple could not be "half in, half out" royals when they stepped down from representative duties.
- The letter directs that Prince Harry and Meghan cannot use the "HRH" title and are "private citizens with commercial and charitable interests" who must operate separately from The Royal Household regarding administrative matters.

- Prince Harry and Meghan returned to Britain at the end of last month with children Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, who are now enrolled in British schools, prompting public interest in the relocation.
