MORE INFORMATION

• The media storm does not stop for Enrique de Inglaterra and Meghan Markle
• There is no peace for the Sussex or in Canada

• Isabel II supports the decision of Prince Enrique and Meghan and establishes a "transition period"

Who decides to leave the royal family, does it forever. Hence, the departure of Enrique from England and Meghan Markle from the Windsor bosom is being more definitive than they thought. So much so that they have even been forced to leave part of their name behind to face this new stage. The Sussex have decided to give up their titles of royal highnesses and also to the public income that provides them to be part of the Windsor. But they will continue to be dukes at all times, since that is a denomination granted by Isabel II when they were married, a gift to Enrique for being his grandson, whatever his role within the institution. However, marriage may no longer use the term royal , real, in its communications and commercial actions. Because, after all and as they themselves have decided, they are no longer part of the royal family.

This is made known exclusively by the British newspaper Daily Mail , which states that the sovereign herself has prohibited the couple from using the word royal. Something that affects them clearly and directly. To start your Instagram account - which in just 10 months has accumulated 11.2 million followers - is called SussexRoyal, a name that they also wanted to keep on their new website, for now something empty but in which they will realize their future activities and its foundation. Created a few months ago and in which they have invested several thousand euros, it has already disappeared that term, real, something that has not yet happened in the Instagram profile.

According to the newspaper, the couple had registered under the commercial term Sussex Royal multitude of products, among which there are objects of all caliber, but also activities, clothing, books or stationery. That does not imply that they were going to get commercial credit from all of them or that they were going to launch products of everything, but they did want to have the option of being able to do it in the future. Therefore, now they would have to rename all those possible licenses, calling them Dukes of Sussex or looking for a trademark that suits them. "If they are not carrying out official tasks and are now looking for business opportunities, they simply cannot sell themselves as royals, " sources close to the royal family explain to the British newspaper.

A shared publication of The Duke and Duchess of Sussex (@sussexroyal) on Jan 8, 2020 at 10:33 PST

The queen has agreed that her grandson and his wife make a life separate from the British royal family, living in other countries - especially in Canada - and moving away from institutional tasks. That was the decision that Enrique and Meghan Markle made in mid-January, when they announced by surprise that they were taking a step back in the life of the palace, in what was a huge media crisis that they solved between the monarch and his heirs, Carlos and Guillermo from England. But that does not mean that it will allow them to make a profit thanks to a surname that Isabel II and her offspring so hard tries to keep clean, pristine and away from pollution caused by media trips or searches for financial revenue.
