Hercules is the son of the king of the Olympian pantheon; ergo, he is by definition a prince. By marrying Hercules, Megara becomes a princess consort, to she is a princess.

Pocahontas is the daughter of the Paramount Chief of the Powhatan, who was treated historically by European royalty as a king, so she is a princess royal by birth.

Aladdin is not a princess movie either, yet Jasmine is a card-carrying member of the Disney Princess franchise, since her father is a Sultan.

There can be little doubt that Meg's background is the primary reason for her non-inclusion in the core franchise when it was decided to formalize membership.
