Thousands of people have signed a petition calling for Prince Harry to step aside from the royal family for good.
The petition calls on the Duke of Sussex to relinquish his titles and was launched by Lady Colin Campbell, author of Meghan and Harry: The Real Story.
More than 30,000 people have now signed up, reports the Mirror.
Lady Campbell told the Daily Star that Harry should request the Queen put his titles into abeyance, meaning they would go into a state of temporary disuse or suspension.
She said: "I started it because I think it’s the right thing to do. I have spoken to people, many people, who think it’s the right thing to do and it is the solution.
"It is a dignified solution for all concerned. To humiliate no-one and protect everyone. I think it’s a humane way of solving a very regrettable situation."
The royal expert believes Harry and wife Meghan Markle would still be able to "sell their brand" without the royal titles.
Lady Campbell said: "It is the best solution because it frees Harry to be able to indulge himself without consequence and without doing damage to the institution of the monarchy of the British nation, the British people and himself.
"So from that point of view it frees him and he is big enough that he doesn’t need the royal title, he’s gone beyond that, he doesn’t need them, they are shackles that he could well do without.
"He doesn’t need them - he is too big for them now."
Her petition states: "The purpose is to invite Prince Harry to voluntarily ask The Queen to put his royal style, titles and rank into abeyance, thereby freeing him from the diplomatic, political and constitutional constraints that are an inevitable part of royal rank, and further freeing him from the constitutional conflicts which his beliefs are creating, with all their implications at home and abroad, in particular in the United Kingdom and the United States of America, where his articulated beliefs are in open conflict with the accepted tenets of both the United Kingdom and American Constitutions.
"As a purely private citizen, with no royal rank, style or title, he will be able to indulge his personal beliefs, as is the right of all private citizens, without the consequential possibility of damaging the institution of the Monarchy or relations between Friendly Powers, and will be free to articulate beliefs, no matter how objectionable, without the fallout that is otherwise inevitable as long as he possesses royal status.
"His invitation to The Sovereign, being of his own accord, will resolve conflicts that would otherwise be inevitable, and will permit him to enjoy the credit of having put both national and international interests above his own, personal ones, in the process gaining him respect that he otherwise will not enjoy."
