Meghan Markle, upon marrying Prince Harry in 2018, acquired several titles and styles. While she is most commonly referred to as the Duchess of Sussex, there are lesser-known subsidiary titles she holds through her marriage. Legally, Meghan is known as “Princess Henry” (using Harry’s real name), but this title is not commonly used because her Duchess of Sussex title takes precedence.
Despite stepping back from the royal family in 2020, Meghan and Prince Harry still retain their royal titles. The couple now resides in Montecito, California, with their two children, Prince Archie and Princess Lilibet.
In a previous interview, Meghan seemed to embrace a more royal status when she referred to herself as “a real-life princess”. This title, however, is not one that Meghan has officially been given, unlike her sister-in-law, Princess Kate, who has been referred to as a Princess since King Charles ascended the throne in 2023.
During a 2022 interview with The Cut, the Duchess expressed the importance of being thoughtful about her role, especially when interacting with young girls who view her as a real-life princess. She encouraged them to recognize their own power to create lives greater than any fairy tale, emphasizing that happiness and love are within their reach.
Specifically, Meghan said: “It’s important to be thoughtful about it because – even with the Oprah interview, I was conscious of the fact that there are little girls that I meet and they’re just like, ‘Oh my God, it’s a real-life princess.’”
She added: “I just look at all of them and think, ‘You have the power within you to create a life greater than any fairy tale you’ve ever read’. I don’t mean that in terms of ‘You could marry a prince one day.’ I mean you can find love. You can find happiness. You can be up against what could feel like the greatest obstacle and then you can find happiness again.”
Traditionally, marrying into the royal family would designate the wife of a Prince as a “Princess consort”. However, some have taken on Duchess titles, as seen with Kate becoming the Duchess of Cambridge when she married Prince William in 2011.
Despite her royal status, Meghan has focused on building the Sussex brand. Recently, she debuted her new business, American Riviera Orchard, on Instagram. The brand is expected to tie in with a new cooking show on Netflix, featuring lifestyle products such as marmalades, jams, and home decor items. While the Sussexes’ Netflix deal is due to end in 2025, contracts for renewal have not yet been confirmed.
In summary, Meghan Markle holds multiple titles, including “Princess Henry,” but her Duchess of Sussex title remains the most recognized. Her journey beyond the fairy tale includes empowering others to find love, happiness, and overcome obstacles, just as she has done herself. And as she continues to build her brand, the world watches with interest, much like the little girls who see her as a real-life princess.
VIDEO: Everyone Is Saying The Same Thing About Ezekiel Elliott After Bizarre Footage Leaks From Dallas Cowboys Training Camp
Ezekiel Elliott is undoubtedly not the same Zeke that he used to be.
We are all finding that out once again during training camp with his second go-round with the Dallas Cowboys.
This week, the coaches had players going through the football gauntlet, which is a way for them to secure the football while being hit from all sides.
Ezekiel Elliott was carrying two footballs when he decided to do it, and the gauntlet seemed to win on this day.
While running through it, Elliott screamed out in pain, dropped the footballs, and then dropped his hands to his knees as he tried to regain himself.
It is unknown if he was injured, got hit in a sensitive area, or just father time has caught up with him.
Either way, social media couldn’t believe how far Ezekiel Elliott had fallen since his glory days at Ohio State and his first few years with the Cowboys.
After a year away from the team that drafted him, Ezekiel Elliott signed a one-year deal with the Dallas Cowboys this offseason.
The team posted a photo of Elliott signing the paperwork on his new deal with the Cowboys, which will reunite him with Dak Prescott and many others.
Many things have changed since Elliott has been gone, and the biggest one is his being the type of workhorse running back that he used to be.
Ezekiel Elliott Returns To The Cowboys After Career-Low Season
Ezekiel Elliott put up career lows last season.
The 29-year-old signed with the Patriots last August after seven seasons in Dallas and was brought to Foxboro to play behind Rhamondre Stevenson as the second running back on the depth chart.
The former No. 4 overall pick finished with a career-low 642 yards and three touchdowns, which came on the fewest carries of his career, 184
Shannon Sharpe Makes His Stance Clear On Controversial Olympic Boxer Imane Khelif Fighting Female Opponents

Algerian boxer Imane Khelif has made headlines after her controversial fight with Italy’s Angela Carini at the 2024 Olympics in Paris, and Shannon Sharpe is taking a controversial stance on the topic.
Italy’s Angela Carini abandoned the round-of-16 fight after just 46 seconds, later saying she had never been hit as hard in the ring.
Khelif became a source of frustration after social media discovered that she had been banned from the 2023 World Championships in New Delhi after failing a gender eligibility test but had been allowed to compete at the Olympic Games.
That led many to think she was transgender.
Despite the controversy surrounding this, Khelif is not a transgender athlete. It’s reported there are no transgender women competing at the 2024 Olympics at all.
ESPN’s Shannon Sharpe made his stance abundantly clear on his “Nightcap” podcast.
“She was born a woman,” Sharpe said, via Awful Announcing. “Transgender people are trying to get rights. And when they go to Capitol Hill, these senators and representatives on the other side ask doctors very specific questions. ‘Doc, I want to ask you one thing, can this woman have a child?’ Yes, she can…So, how is she not a woman? Biologically and anatomically, how is she not a woman?”
On Thursday, the International Olympic Committee stated they confirmed that Khelif complied with the eligibility and entry regulations for this year’s Games.
“Every person has the right to practice sport without discrimination,” the IOC said in its statement. “All athletes participating in the boxing tournament of the Olympic Games Paris 2024 comply with the competition’s eligibility and entry regulations, as well as all applicable medical regulations set by the Paris 2024 Boxing Unit. As with previous Olympic boxing competitions, the gender and age of the athletes are based on their passport.”
There Has Been Zero Proof Provided That Imane Khelif Has Ever Claimed To Be Transgender
Imane Khelif has the entire world going after her following false accusations of being transgender.
Although Imane Khelif’s participation in Olympic women’s boxing has been scrutinized in recent days, the 25-year-old has always competed as a woman, including during the Tokyo Olympics.
In fact, there has been no proof that she identifies as transgender or intersex.
Khelif’s win provoked responses from several prominent figures, but despite they think, she will continue on in these Olympics.
