King Charles and Prince William have decisively stripped Meghan Markle of her Duchess of Sussex title after uncovering a hidden offshore bank account tied to misused royal funds.
The bombshell palace announcement, issued on December 12, 2025, cites an explosive audit revealing millions funneled through a Cayman Islands entity for private ventures, marking the end of any lingering royal favor.
This move, long anticipated amid escalating scandals, underscores the monarchy's firm pivot toward accountability.
Project Vigilance investigators flagged the account during financial probes into Sussex enterprises. Records exposed transfers from charitable trusts—leveraging royal prestige—into Meghan-controlled accounts post-Megxit, totaling over £5 million in "consulting fees" masked for Netflix and lifestyle brands.
No direct payroll breach occurred, but the scheme exploited title-derived influence without disclosure, breaching palace protocols.
William drove the decision, declaring it vital to "protect the Crown's sanctity" from exploitation. Charles, despite health woes, endorsed it resolutely, prioritizing institution over sentiment. Meghan fired back via statement, slamming "malicious targeting," while Harry's muted response hints at deepening rifts.
