A Tory MP suggested bringing forward a private members’ bill which could see the Duke and Duchess of Sussex stripped of their royal titles, amid the release of their new Netflix documentary. Isle of Wight MP Bob Seely called the situation a “political issue” and accused Prince Harry of “attacking” the monarchy.
The MP said he could bring forward the proposed legislation in the new year. If it passed MPs would vote on a resolution that could give the Privy Council the power to downgrade the couple’s royal status.
The couple’s Netflix documentary began streaming on Thursday with the release of three episodes. In the series Harry accused the royals of having a “huge level of unconscious bias” while Meghan said the media wanted to “destroy” her.
