Harry and Meghan's royal duties ending 31 March
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will formally step down as senior royals from 31 March, a spokesperson for the couple has said.
They will no more carry out duties on behalf of the Queen but arrangements will be reviewed after 12 months.
Earlier this season Harry and Meghan announced they might be stepping back from royal duties and working to become financially independent.
They will return to the united kingdom for engagements by the end of this month.
The couple plan to split their time taken between the UK and THE UNITED STATES and the spokesperson said they might be in the UK "regularly".
They'll attend six events in the united kingdom in February and March, like the Commonwealth Day Service on 9 March.
Harry is also expected to attend the London Marathon in April in his capacity as patron, as the couple may also attend the Invictus Games in holland in May.
The couple will formally retain their HRH titles but won't use them. The make use of the word "Royal" is under discussion, the spokesperson said, and an announcement upon this will be produced alongside the launch of the couple's new non-profit organisation.
Harry and Meghan's foundation put on trademark the Sussex Royal brand - applied to their website and social media - in June last year.
As the couple will no longer be undertaking engagements in support of the Queen, they'll not be retaining an office at Buckingham Palace. Instead, from 1 April they'll be represented via their UK foundation, the spokesperson said.
Harry will retain the ranks of Major, Lieutenant Commander, and Squadron Leader but his honorary military positions will be suspended. The roles will not be filled by anyone else during the 12-month review period.
Further information regarding the couple's new charitable organisation will be released later this year however the spokesperson said the complexities they supported, including the Commonwealth, community, youth empowerment and mental health, would remain the same.
Harry's priorities also include the welfare of servicemen and women, conservation and HIV, while Meghan has centered on women's empowerment, gender equality and education.
The duke and duchess announced earlier this season that they planned to step back as senior royals. Information on how this would work were then unveiled, following days of talks with the Queen and other senior royals.
The couple had previously spoken about how precisely they had struggled beneath the media spotlight.
The couple have been around in Canada with their son Archie for a lot of this season, after briefly returning to the united kingdom in January following a protracted six-week Christmas break on Vancouver Island.
