Prince Harry and Meghan Markle turned their backs on such a sweet life – the Sussexes famously left the royal family earlier this year to explore other options in a bid to become financially independent. However, the couple, together with their son Archie, has since moved to the other side of the pond where they are as equally popular as when they were in the United Kingdom.

First TV Appearance

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have been busy with all sorts of preparations and engagements – including a big TV appearance. The pair is set to grace our dummy boxes on Sept. 22 in celebration of the world’s most influential people by TIME magazine.

The event is expected to be star-studded. Among the honorees are singer John Legend, ‘Grey’s Anatomy’ star Sandra Oh, host and comedian Trevor Noah, and actor and screenwriter Kumail Nanjiani. Performing at the bash are Jennifer Hudson, The Weeknd, and Halsey.

Of course, Meghan is a pro at doing this. After all, she used to be an actress whose most notable credential is playing Rachel Zane in the hit legal-drama series ‘Suits.’

Issue with HRH Title

While most fans are excited to see the couple on TV, others were puzzled if Meghan and Prince Harry will shed their HRH titles. In the teaser for the highly awaited event, they were only addressed by their first names.

When they left the influential royal family, they opted to still use their titles. However, on several occasions, the couple asked to be simply called Meghan and Harry.

Back in February, the sixth in line to the throne asked the people in a Travalyst conference to just call him Harry. When they moved to the United States and visited Homeboy Industries, the couple again asked attendees to call them by their first names.

‘Megxit’

Since the beginning of their love story, Meghan and Prince Harry have always escorted controversy but nothing prepared their fans for their departure announcement in January. While this decision couldn’t be seen from a mile, there were red flags that might have pushed the couple to leave the royal family.

The incessant bullying, malicious headlines and articles, and even the persistent digging of the former actress’ dirty laundry were big factors that led them to make such a huge step. After officially leaving the monarchy by the end of March, the Sussexes traveled to Vancouver Island, Canada before relocating to the US.

They initially stayed at Tyler Perry’s expansive abode in Los Angeles but were constantly hounded by paparazzi. Of late, they bought a house in a neighborhood that also houses other powerful personalities like Ellen DeGeneres and Oprah Winfrey.
