The man behind Brighton's latest Walk of Fame is inviting the public to consider whether The Sussexes should be included. In 2002, David Courtney was responsible for introducing the first Walk of Fame cultural attraction in the UK, located in Brighton and now he is back to bring a digitalised version. He is finalising a new line-up and has considered The Sussexes as part of that line-up.
Despite now living in the US, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex titles, but are no longer addressed as His or Her Royal Highness (HRH). On one hand, the pair have made a big impact on the county. During their years active - the couple did many royal visits.

The tour made for some memorable moments and while on the final leg of the tour, in Peacehaven, Meghan was pictured comforting a young girl who stood in the crowd in tears. Meghan consoled 10-year-old Kara Fairhall's hand and comforted the youngster for some time. On the other hand, some might feel that stepping down from royal duties and their actions since then could affect whether they should be included in this kind of tribute.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex decided to leave the UK after stepping back from their official royal duties in 2020. The founder of Walk of Fame Ltd, David Courtney said:" We want to put the question out there and see what the public think." A final line-up is expected to be finalised in the coming weeks.
