A spokesperson for Meghan Markle is denying a recent report claiming that the Duchess of Sussex is responsible for changes to her son Archies birth certificate.

A report by the UKs The Sun over the weekend declared that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex secretly erased Meghans first and middle name from Archies birthday certificate in an apparent snub to Prince William and Kate Middleton .

Rachel Meghan was taken out to leave just Her Royal Highness the Duchess of Sussex, the outlet asserted . The unprecedented move could be seen as a snub to the Cambridges who have included Kates names on her childrens certificates. It may also be viewed as Harry aligning his wife with mum Di, who always used Her Royal Highness the Princess of Wales.

But a spokesperson for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex told Harpers Bazaar royals editor Omid Scobie on Sunday that thats just not true.

The change of name on public documents in 2019 was dictated by The Palace, as confirmed by documents from senior Palace officials, the spokesperson said in a statement, denying that the change was requested by Meghan or Prince Harry.

To see this UK tabloid and their carnival of so-called experts chose to deceptively whip this into a calculated family snub and suggest that she would oddly want to be nameless on her childs birth certificate, or any other legal document, would be laughable were it not offensive, the spokesperson added, before signing off.

Theres a lot going on in the world; lets focus on that rather than creating clickbait.
