Prince Harry Considered Dropping Royal Family Name, Sought Advice from Princess Diana’s Brother…See More
Prince Harry reportedly considered changing his family surname to “Spencer” — his late mother Diana’s maiden name — and sought advice from her brother, Earl Spencer, who advised against it. The move would have distanced Harry and his children from the royal family name “Mountbatten-Windsor”.
Prince Harry reportedly sought advice from Princess Diana’s brother, Earl Spencer, about changing his family name to Spencer, according to a report which cited its source as saying. The Duke of Sussex is said to have actively explored the possibility of abandoning the Mountbatten-Windsor surname currently used by his children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet, reported dailymail.co.uk.
A friend of Harry, as per the report, revealed, “They had a very amicable conversation and Spencer advised him against taking such a step.”
The discussions reportedly took place during a rare visit by Harry to Britain. However, legal challenges were deemed “insurmountable” by Earl Spencer.
The fact that Harry consulted his late mother’s family over his own royal surname highlights the ongoing “toxic rift” between him and other members of the Royal Family, the news report noted. Changing the surname would have likely caused upset, especially for his brother Prince William and father King Charles.
Mountbatten-Windsor is the surname designated for descendants of Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip. It merges the royal family name Windsor and the adopted surname Mountbatten of the Duke of Edinburgh. Archie and Lilibet’s full names are Archie Harrison Mount batten-Windsor and Lilibet Diana Master minds, respectively.
