They went ahead and patented their brand. When it seemed that they had it all planned and that when they left the Royal Family they had everything under control, the Dukes of Sussex made a mistake of beginners that could leave them without funds
When it seemed that the Dukes of Sussex had it all well planned and a well-oiled business and marketing strategy. It has just been revealed that even they, with a whole machinery of contacts behind them, are not infallible. Dukes could lose millions and millions of dollars in royalties.
And it is that they, who have just renounced all their benefits of "Royal Family" (including receiving public money as pay to represent the Crown) and think of living emancipated based on their image...

They seemed to have it all, that they could live copiously as long as they wanted at the expense of themselves. The dukes had already submitted the papers to obtain the copyright of their label: "Sussex Royal" (it was now known that they will keep the title so on that side nothing is in danger).
That would enable them to make financial benefits for everything that bears their name. From books to perfumes ... but one detail escaped them:
At the same time as they announced their retirement, the Dukes of Sussex included in their communiqué the intention to settle in North America. Leave Britain (and casually return to visit).

Meghan and Harry hoped to drop everything and preserve theirs. Thus, they ran to secure their title patent (“Sussex Royal” as they are on Instagram) for themselves, foundations and products they want to support. In June 2019 they made sure that in Britain their name is not used in vain (and that each product in six categories including books and texts will bring those benefits).
It is that, in large part, the dukes did it also to protect themselves from the media (in order to prosecute tabloids who, for example, published their private letters to their father, something that today is justly carried out in court) and take legal action in in case you don't like something. They decided not to be public figures. No more.
Noting that the use of her name can be worth millions (an estimated 400 million euros), Meghan and Harry secured her name in Britain. But they didn't consider the move!

They point it out as a beginner's mistake (not a serious one, which could affect their future in a big way) and especially now that the terms in which the dukes will effectively leave the Royal Family were known.
Because, if Meghan and Harry hoped to maintain their royal (economic) status but without the obligations (giving speeches, talks, awards or touring) on behalf of the queen ... it will not happen, The pressure of her royal relatives (why they should be governed by so many rules and Meghan and Harry not?) And the gaze of the people forced the queen to say no to her favorite grandson: no extra money for the young couple.
They must live on what they generate.

And, what promised to be a millionaire business could have its obstacles. It is that although the dukes secured the patent of their title (“Sussex Royal”) in Great Britain, different individuals were revived and asked for exclusivity as a brand: in the United States, in the European Union and even in Canada! (your new home).
This is a businessman in Italy - Ui Phoenix Kerbl - who could beat them by hand (he presented it on January 9, when Meghan and Harry were busy giving the news) could use “Sussex Royal” in jewelry, accessories, beauty products and Even in drinks! Three days later, the revival was replicated in Canada: Royalmount Spirits sang first, while the United States has a monopoly on Joel Fogelson.
