However, there where those who did not agree with the couple's decision, adding they were failing to do their duty to the Crown.

Piers Morgan, who has shied away from blasting Meghan in the past, accused the "Kardashian-wannabes" of trying to bring down the Monarchy.

In one post he said:

"The Queen must FIRE Their Royal Hustlers: Deluded Meghan and Harry should be stripped of their titles before this pair of grasping, selfish, scheming Kardashian-wannabes bring down the Monarchy."

Morgan added in another tweet:

Twitter user, @NocteRegem, added:

"He used to be the cool royal that was always having a laugh. Not anymore, it seems... Sad."

Another tweep, @hallsymatt, wrote:

"She’s ruined him! She’s even caused a rift with his brother! I agree strip them of there titles and no Prince Charles handouts!"
