Prince Philip would ‘turn in his grave’ if he knew Harry and Meghan Markle didn’t give kids his last name
NY Post
A royal error.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle opted to give their kids, Prince Archie, 4, and Princess Lilibet, 2, the last name of Sussex rather than Mountbatten-Windsor.
This moniker would have angered the late Prince Philip if he was still alive — according to a royal expert.
The Duke of Edinburgh died in April 2021 at the age of 99, and the surname of Mountbatten-Windsor was bestowed upon his male-line descendants since 1960.
Royal expert Ingrid Seward penned for the Daily Mail how the Greek prince would have been royally peeved — and would “turn in his grave” — at the Duke of Sussex’s choice to change his kids’ names.
She wrote that Harry’s decision “will only serve to further distance the prince and his children” from the Firm.
