The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been warned that they need to stop making money from selling content related to the Royal name if they hope to ever become a part of the family again

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have come under fire for “monetising” their Royal links – and been warned to stop if they want to become part of the Royal Family again one day.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex quit their roles as working Royals back in 2020 but since then have retained their Royal titles while embarking on a new life in the USA. The pair became financially independent after exiting the Royal fold – but have repeatedly been seen to use the connection to cash in.

From tell-all interviews and documentaries, to Harry’s explosive memoir Spare, dishing the dirt on the Royals has become a subject that has big earning potential for Harry and Meghan. But now they have been urged to think twice before signing on the dotted line to make money out of their family ties.

Royal correspondent Russell Myers has stressed that Harry and Meghan will find themselves continually snubbed by the Royal family unless they change their tactics. He told Sky News Australia : “Members from the Royal Family have told Harry, if he wants a relationship with the rest of the family, then first and foremost, he has got to stop talking about them.

“They can’t go about making money off their associations with the Royal Family. They’re going to [have to] sort of realise, if they’re going to have a relationship with the rest of the royal family, they can’t go about trashing them.”

More so, Russell believes that the Royal firm is “united without them.” He added: “Hopefully, they’ll see that the Royal Family are very united without them, and if they do want a relationship, going forward, they need to take the steam out of their relationship and out of the things they say sometimes.”

The news comes after it was reported that Harry could well be full of “regret” after missing the annual celebration of the King’s birthday, Trooping the Colour, last weekend. Neither Harry or Meghan are thought to have been invited to the celebratory parade, the second for King Charles III since he took the throne.

While Prince William and cancer-stricken wife Princess Kate were in attendance, there was no sign of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. The move of not attending may well now be something Harry will regret according to a royal expert.

Richard Fitzwilliams told The Sun: “I think when it comes to military matters Harry has always taken an interest, I think that he does unquestionably view the way the break has occurred with the Royal Family. Which, as I say in my opinion, is the fault of the Sussexes.”

Richard continued: “We know they wanted an apology from the Royal Family for the way they were treated when they were senior working members of it. They certainly won’t get that. But I do think there will be a certain amount of regret.”
