Yes, the tidal effect of the sun would disappear, and that would probably make the oceans all fucky suddenly (after an 8 minutes lag).

I wonder if we would feel the sudden disappearance of the centripetal force of gravity.

Does gravity travel at the speed of light?
Of course. It can’t travel faster
Yes. General relativity.
The gravity does travel, the gravity is.
If it didn’t travel, it wouldn’t take 8 minutes to stop right?
After 8 minutes, almost certainly
