Prince Harry Was Close To Taking This Extreme Measure

It looks like he was ready to make some major changes to his life. Of course, we are talking about Prince Harry as it seems like he was close to taking this extreme measure. Keep reading below for everything you need to know.

Prince Harry Was Close To Taking This Extreme Measure

According to the latest reports, Prince Harry was seriously considering changing his last name to Spencer after dealing with a passport snafu.

Apparently, the Duke of Sussex was upset when he found out that the royals didn’t want to issue passports to his two children, Archie and Lilibet.

One source close to the situation even put it this way, “King Charles hadn’t wanted Archie and Lili to carry the titles, most of all the HRH, and the British passports, once created, would be the first and perhaps the only legal proof of their names.”

“Harry was at a point where British passports for his children with their updated Sussex surnames (since the death of Queen Elizabeth II) were being blocked with a string of excuses over the course of five months.”

Of course, the internet certainly did have a lot to say about the matter. Some critics on both sides of the pond even commented with, “I don’t think this matter demonstrates that the royals have any sort of real power.”

Prince Harry Wanted to Change His Last Name To Spencer

“They can just complicate the workings of the bureaucracy because pencil pushers are still in awe of the titles. That is not power but the royals would like us to think it is. They have absolutely no role in policy. Just window dressing.”

Another critic of the royal family wrote, “When I read the story at first I thought why not getting American passports for the children.”

“Thinking about this I feel this was more to secure the children’s birthright to the title HRH and that Harry, Meghan, Archie and Lilibeth have the same surname chosen by Harry and Meghan. Meghan said in WLM how important it is for her to have the same surname as her children.”

And then there was this comment from a critic as well: “These dueling stories are so confusing, one says Uncle Spencer discouraged Harry from changing his name, the other says he was enthusiastic for Harry to do so?! Harry is definitely going to have to write a Spare Part II to clear all of this up!”

So far the Duke of Sussex himself has not made any comments about the matter just yet. Watch this space for more.
