Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor, the Duke of York, was recently stripped of all his titles, reducing him to a commoner amidst ongoing controversies linked to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal. This loss mirrors historical cases, such as King Edward VIII, who abdicated for love and faced lifelong bitterness after his title was diminished, and Princess Diana, who lost her HRH status post-divorce. Experts suggest that adjusting to life without royal titles can be challenging for those affected, despite retaining some public reverence. Meanwhile, Prince Harry and Meghan retain their Duke and Duchess titles but have agreed to refrain from using HRH and fulfilling royal duties.
