In a dramatic twist worthy of a royal soap opera, Prince Archie — the son of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle — has reportedly severed all ties with the British royal family following the release of bombshell DNA test results that call his paternity into question.
According to insiders close to the matter, 5-year-old Archie, now living in California with his parents, was at the center of a quiet but highly sensitive genetic inquiry.
The tests, originally requested for “health reasons,” allegedly returned results that left the Sussex household reeling — revealing that Prince Harry is not Archie’s biological father.
The implications were immediate and deeply personal. While Meghan has remained tight-lipped, sources claim she privately confirmed the results and expressed “regret” for past silence. “She thought it would never come out,” said one anonymous insider. “But the truth has a way of finding the light.”
Archie, described as mature beyond his years, was allegedly made aware of the results in a carefully guided conversation. What followed stunned even those closest to the family: Archie reportedly declared his intention to cut all formal ties with the House of Windsor.
“He was firm and unusually articulate for a child his age,” a source claimed. “He said, ‘If none of this is real, then I don’t want to pretend anymore.’”
The news has sent shockwaves through Buckingham Palace. While the royals have not issued an official statement, palace aides say Prince William and Princess Kate were “staggered” by the revelation and “heartbroken” for Harry — who has yet to publicly comment on the DNA results.
Observers believe this revelation could deepen the already vast rift between the Sussexes and the rest of the royal family. “This isn’t just scandal — this is identity-level crisis,” said a royal biographer. “Archie was born into a legacy, but now he’s walking away from it.”
Speculation is already swirling around the identity of Archie’s biological father. Though no names have been officially confirmed, the press has floated everything from former colleagues of Meghan to distant acquaintances in the entertainment world. The lack of clarity has only intensified media frenzy.
Meanwhile, supporters of the Sussex family urge the public to respect Archie’s privacy, emphasizing that he is still a child caught in a storm not of his own making. “No matter the DNA, he deserves peace,” one supporter tweeted.
Despite the chaos, Meghan and Archie were seen recently in Montecito, appearing calm and composed. When asked about the family’s next move, a spokesperson simply said, “They are focusing on healing and moving forward — privately.”
As the royal world reels from yet another seismic shift, one thing is certain: Prince Archie is choosing his own path — and it no longer leads through Buckingham Palace.
