- The other is SpikeyMau5, the pseudonym used by Prince Harry on Instagram
Music streaming accounts reportedly belonging to the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are still operating, after the couple announced they were quitting social media.
The profiles on the popular Soundcloud site have the usernames Bogart&Guy – the names of Meghan’s two dogs – and SpikeyMau5, the pseudonym used by Prince Harry for his now defunct secret Instagram account.
The accounts follow each other, while the SpikeyMau5 account also follows accounts for Chelsy Davy, Prince Harry’s ex-girlfriend.

Harry used the username SpikeyMau5, inspired by Canadian DJ Deadmau5, on Instagram before freezing the account after his relationship with the former Suits star emerged in October 2016. A SoundCloud profile with the same name (pictured) is still running
If they do belong to the couple, they offer an insight into their music tastes. Meghan’s reveals she likes trendy DJs but is just as happy listening to Joni Mitchell and Otis Redding. Harry, meanwhile, prefers electro music.
The SpikeyMau5 account was last used one year ago and Bogart&Guy account posted four years ago but both remain open, the Sun reported.
There has been no verification that the accounts do belong to the Sussexes.
Harry used the username SpikeyMau5, inspired by Canadian DJ Deadmau5, on Instagram before freezing the account after his relationship with the former Suits star emerged in October 2016.
The ‘Spikey’ element of its name came from the code word used by Scotland Yard officers guarding the Duke of Sussex.
Harry’s Facebook page was under the alias Spike Wells and said he was from Maun, Botswana, a part of the world loved by the prince. Harry used a profile picture of King Julien, the lemur from the animated movie Madagascar.
The SoundCloud profile is attached to the name ‘Barry Sales’ and has a photo of an Army base as the picture. The Bogart&Guy account has a generic ‘California’ banner at the top of the page.
A source said Harry and Meghan will not use social networks to promote their new Archewell Foundation (pictured) and have no plans to return in a personal capacity
It was claimed last week that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex will never return to social media due to the ‘almost unsurvivable’ amount of abuse they received.
Harry and Meghan stopped posting to their Sussex Royal Instagram and Twitter accounts last year, while hinting that they could quit the sites.
Over the weekend a source close to the couple told the Sunday Times they will not use social networks to promote their new Archewell Foundation and have no plans to return in a personal capacity.
The couple have frequently spoken out about the abuse they recieve online, despite continuing to use online media to promote their ‘progressive’ new roles in the US – including most-recently via a podcast on Spotify.
The pair have also singed a £100million deal with Netflix to produce TV series, films and children’s shows for the streaming service.
Harry and Meghan originally became disillusioned with social media after receiving ‘hate’ online during their time as working royals, but have continued to garner attention through projects with Netflix and Spotify.
It comes a year after the couple announced they were stepping back from official duties and their latest decision to leave social media for good signals a further step away from their existence as royals.
