25,000 people have signed a petition started by royal expert Lady Colin Campbell demanding that Prince Harry give up all royal titles.
According to The Independent, “The purpose of the Change.org appeal is to invite Prince Harry to “voluntarily” ask the Queen to put his ‘royal style, titles and rank into abeyance.’”
The petition reads: “As a purely private citizen, with no royal rank, style or title, he (Harry) will be able to indulge his personal beliefs, as is the right of all private citizens, without the consequential possibility of damaging the institution of the Monarchy or relations between Friendly Powers, and will be free to articulate beliefs, no matter how objectionable, without the fallout that is otherwise inevitable as long as he possesses royal status.”
Campbell feels that this is the “right thing to do” and "It is the best solution because it frees Harry to be able to indulge himself without consequence and without doing damage to the institution of the monarchy of the British nation, the British people and himself.”
It was reported earlier this month that senior aides at Buckingham Palace have demanded “the royal couple to give up their titles” following Prince Harry’s interview with Oprah Winfrey.
