https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-51163865Prince Harry and Meghan will no longer use their HRH titles and will not receive public funds for royal duties, Buckingham Palace has announced.
The couple will also no longer formally represent The Queen.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex said they intend to repay £2.4m of taxpayer money for the refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage, which will remain their UK family home.
The new arrangement comes into effect in spring this year, the palace said.
The statement comes after senior royals held talks on Monday about the future role for the couple, who this month announced they wanted to "step back" as senior royals.

I am pleasantly surprised that they are willing to pay back the costs of renovation. I did not expect that to happen. So I guess now we wait and see if they actually do.

I wonder if Harry agreed to that without consulting Meghan.

No, no need for that! The two posts seem to be getting different facts and opinions out. They aren't just duplicating each other.
