Queen ‘surprised’ by Meghan and Harry’s royal title snub for Archie – expert

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are said to have turned down the title of Earl of Dumbarton for Archie when he was born.

Royal sources say the couple raised concerns over the word “dumb” in the name of the Scottish Town and how it may be perceived by others.

Prince Harry was made Earl of Dumbarton after he married Meghan in May 2018.

The title of Scottish nobility can be passed to his first-born son, who is now two-years-old.

Former royal butler, Grant Harrold has claimed the Queen, 95, would have been shocked at the decision by the Sussexes.

However, Mr Harrold added the Queen would have accepted the wishes of the couple not to use the title for their son.

He told Express.co.uk “I am sure the Queen would have been surprised at their decision to turn down the title of The Earl of Dumbarton for their son Archie.

“But at the same time the Queen would respect their decision.”
