Prince Harry is said to have considered a major symbolic break from the Royal Family by exploring the idea of changing his surname from Mountbatten-Windsor to Spencer, his late mother Princess Diana’s maiden name, according to multiple media reports.
The Duke of Sussex reportedly reached out to his maternal uncle, Earl Spencer, for guidance on the matter. A source close to the prince told Daily Mail, “They had a very amicable conversation and Spencer advised him against taking such a step.”
