Meghan Markle's royal title is the Duchess of Sussex.
Upon her marriage to Prince Harry, she became Her Royal Highness The Duchess of Sussex, Countess of Dumbarton, and Baroness Kilkeel. Following their decision in 2020 to step back from their roles as senior working members of the Royal Family, she and Prince Harry retained their titles as the Duke and Duchess of Sussex. However, they relinquished the right to be addressed as "Your Royal Highness."
This means that while the title of Duchess of Sussex remains hers, the formal address of "Your Royal Highness" is no longer used for her or Prince Harry.
Here's a breakdown of her current royal standing:
| Aspect | Status |
|---|---|
| Primary Title | Duchess of Sussex |
| Other Titles | Countess of Dumbarton (in Scotland), Baroness Kilkeel (in Northern Ireland) |
| Style of Address | No longer uses "Your Royal Highness" (HRH), though the title of Duchess of Sussex is retained. |
| Royal Role | No longer a senior working member of the Royal Family. |
