King Charles revoked nine honours in March 2026 due to criminal convictions or misconduct, including animal cruelty and domestic abuse.

King Charles has revoked the MBEs and OBEs of nine individuals in early 2026, including Paul Allen Rose, founder of Barrow's Owl Sanctuary, after his 2024 conviction for animal welfare violations under the Animal Welfare Act 2006. Rose received a suspended 20-week jail sentence. Others stripped of honours include former rugby captain Stuart Hogg due to a domestic abuse conviction, and eight others cited for criminal convictions, professional censure, or actions undermining the honours system. The revocations were announced in The Gazette on March 5, 2026, reflecting the monarch’s authority to withdraw titles for serious misconduct.
