“He’s Lost His Mind!” William and Catherine Devastated by King Charles’ Reckless Decision: He Officially Signs Decree Stripping the Title of…
In a move that has reportedly stunned the royal family and left Prince William and Princess Catherine devastated, King Charles III has officially signed a royal decree stripping Prince Harry and Meghan Markle of their remaining royal titles, a decision insiders say could fracture the family beyond repair.
The shocking decree, quietly finalized late last night and confirmed by palace aides this morning, removes the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s right to use their HRH (His/Her Royal Highness) styles and revokes several ceremonial and military titles previously left intact following their 2020 exit from royal duties.
But it was not the Sussexes who reacted most strongly — it was William and Catherine, according to palace sources, who were left blindsided by the King’s decision.
“He’s lost his mind,” a furious Prince William is alleged to have told senior aides. “This wasn’t the plan. We agreed to peace — not provocation.”
According to insiders, both William and Catherine had been working behind the scenes in recent months to quietly rebuild bridges with Harry and Meghan following Princess Kate’s public health battle and the family’s shared desire to present a united front. “This decree destroys any hope of reconciliation,” said one palace official. “It’s scorched earth.”
The King’s decision comes amid rising tensions within the Firm, with reports that Charles has grown increasingly impatient with what he views as continued “disrespect” from the California-based royals, including Harry’s tell-all memoir and multiple high-profile interviews.
“This is about protecting the integrity of the Crown,” a senior source close to the King stated. “The Sussexes cannot continue to profit from royal status while actively undermining the institution.”
However, not everyone agrees — especially Prince William, who is said to have begged his father to delay the decree, arguing that such a move would not only deepen family wounds but also damage the monarchy’s image further in the eyes of a younger, global audience.
Catherine, still recovering from her ongoing cancer treatment, is believed to have been “heartbroken” by the news. “She wanted peace, especially for the sake of the children — all of them,” said a source close to the Princess. “This decision feels like punishment, not leadership.”
Public reaction has been deeply divided. Supporters of King Charles applaud the move as long overdue, claiming the Sussexes can’t have it both ways — enjoying royal privilege without royal responsibility. But others view the action as petty, even cruel, particularly at a time when the royal family is dealing with multiple internal crises.
Notably, the King has not made a public statement about the decree — and the Sussexes themselves have yet to respond. But palace watchers say the damage may already be done.
“This was the nuclear option,” one veteran royal correspondent noted. “And it may go down in history as the moment the royal family chose power over peace.”
With the Windsors now more divided than ever, one can only ask: is there any road back from here?
