Harry and Meghan to step back as senior royals
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-51040751
Quote:
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have announced they will step back as "senior" royals and divide time between UK and North America.
In a statement posted on their Instagram page, the couple said they plan to "carve out a progressive new role within this institution".
They said it came after "months of reflection and internal discussions".

Not sure how this will work.

Re: Harry and Meghan to step back as senior royals
Are we really expected to believe that she won't continue to trade in on his name? She's spent her life actively seeking the limelight, she's not going to give up now.

Re: Harry and Meghan to step back as senior royals
HOW can she cash in on his name.
She's a name in the own right with some 28 TV programs & 8 Films to her name.
She had to quit Suits when she got engaged.

So how many people had heard of her before taking up with him or any other high profile male she is alleged to have been seeking? "Suits" was the only series where she made anything other than 1 or 2 appearances.

Wish they'd all 'step back' and save us a lot of money. All the self indulgent divorces, palaces, houses and resulting offspring that we're expected to pay for.

Re: Harry and Meghan to step back as senior royals
I think they’re doing the right thing - he doesn’t want to be another Prince Andrew...

Who is going to pay for their security? They will still be a terrorist target.

Their security needs arise because of the constitutional politics and history of the British State. It is therefore the British State’s ongoing responsibility to pay for their security. It’s not as if it isn’t in our interests to do so either - we don’t need some nutter or extremist trying to hold the country to ransom by snatching one of them.
