Prince Harry has seen his title changed on the official Royal Family website to reflect the changes agreed as part of the infamous 2020 Megxit agreement.
It was announced by the Palace that neither Harry nor his wife Meghan Markle would use their HRH titles after stepping down as senior members of the Royal Family.
The official statement issued on 18 January 2020 reads: “The Sussexes will not use their HRH titles as they are no longer working members of the Royal Family.”
But for more than three years, the website referred to Harry as HRH.
The Duke was twice referred to as such on his profile page, but since the Express reported the error on Friday night Palace aides were quick to correct the error. Now, nowhere on the page is Harry called HRH.
The position of his profile page on the Royal Family landing page has also been moved down.
It now falls near the very bottom of the list, behind working members of the Firm.
Harry and Meghan’s pages sit side by side, below that of the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester and Princess Alexandra.
Prince Andrew’s page comes at the very bottom of the page.
Other errors on the website – pointed out by the Express – have also been corrected.
Harry is no longer referred to as the youngest son of the Prince of Wales, which would have implied he was five-year-old Prince Louis.
Instead the website has been changed to say: “The Duke of Sussex is fifth in line to the throne and the younger son of The King and Diana, Princess of Wales.”
The features on Clarence House and Kensington Palace have been updated to reflect the King and Queen’s new titles, as well as the Prince and Princess of Wales’s.
Prior to the tweak, made hastily on Saturday morning, the monarchs were referred to as the Prince of Wales and Duchess of Cornwall – titles they ceased using after Queen Elizabeth II died on September 8 last year.
Similarly the Prince and Princess of Wales were referred to as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge.
Pages on the Royal Collection Trust, Royal Warrants and Royal Finances have also been updated to reflect that King Charles is now monarch, not his late mother.
The first pages when clicking the search bar have also been changed to avoid the long list of Commonwealth nations appearing, all of which repeatedly stated that Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth was monarch.
However, the Canada page still appears prominently and that still incorrectly states the late Queen is monarch.
In response to our original story, Buckingham Palace said: “The Royal Family website contains over five thousand pages of information about the life and work of the Royal Family. Following the death of Her late Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, content has been revisited and updated periodically. Some content may be out of date until this process is complete.”
