Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will lose their HRH titles after stepping back as senior members of the Royal Family.
The news was announced by Buckingham Palace this evening and means the couple can no longer formally represent the Queen.
The decision was reached today after representatives on both sides spent the last few days thrashing out details of a new arrangement for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
The couple will also repay £2.4 million of taxpayer's money spent on renovating their Berkshire home.
Harry's mother Diana lost her HRH title when she divorced Charles in 1996.
The Queen said in a statement: "Following many months of conversations and more recent discussions, I am pleased that together we have found a constructive and supportive way forward for my grandson and his family.
"Harry, Meghan and Archie will always be much loved members of my family.
"I recognise the challenges they have experienced as a result of intense scrutiny over the last two years and support their wish for a more independent life.
"I want to thank them for all their dedicated work across this country, the Commonwealth and beyond, and am particularly proud of how Meghan has so quickly become one of the family.
"It is my whole family’s hope that today’s agreement allows them to start building a happy and peaceful new life."
Buckingham Palace said in a statement: "The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are grateful to Her Majesty and the Royal Family for their ongoing support as they embark on the next chapter of their lives.
"As agreed in this new arrangement, they understand that they are required to step back from Royal duties, including official military appointments.
"They will no longer receive public funds for Royal duties. With The Queen’s blessing, the Sussexes will continue to maintain their private patronages and associations.
"While they can no longer formally represent The Queen, the Sussexes have made clear that everything they do will continue to uphold the values of Her Majesty.
"The Sussexes will not use their HRH titles as they are no longer working members of the Royal Family.
"The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have shared their wish to repay Sovereign Grant expenditure for the refurbishment of Frogmore Cottage, which will remain their UK family home. Buckingham Palace does not comment on the details of security arrangements.
"There are well established independent processes to determine the need for publiclyfunded security. This new model will take effect in the Spring of 2020."
