Ever since Harry and Meghan Markle announced that they are stepping down as Royals, we have all wanted to know why. Well, we have speculated why.

Yesterday, at a Sentebale event, the Duke of Sussex pleased his case. He says he wants to live a private life away from the press and not accept public funding. Since he was not able to do the latter, he had no other choice but to say goodbye to the only life he has known. While he will be living a more private life with his wife and son, he has no intention of leaving his charities or military obligations behind. It will just be in a much different capacity.

This decision did not happen overnight, and he hinted that it had been years in the making. However, talks started a few months ago and were finalized on Saturday.

To me, it sounds like he never got over how his mother died. She was being chased by the paparazzi when the car she was in crashed. Now there are press people like Piers Morgan, who keeps going after Meghan Markle. In that aspect, you can’t blame him for not wanting what happened to Princess Diana to happen again.

Harry, Duke of Sussex and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex are free
January 19th, 2020 under British Royals. [ Comments: none ]


The Queen of England is letting her grandson and his current wife out of their royal obligations as they publically requested without her knowledge.

As if there was a sign that this was going to end this way? This is what I saw; Meghan Markle has a horrible relationship with her family., and only her mother came to her wedding? It can go one of three ways for someone who doesn’t talk to their family when they get married. They either want a family, don’t want one or just don’t care. It seems like she chose to ignore her new family and just focus on her husband and child.

It appears like she gave up everything to marry Harry, and now he gave up everything to be married to her. She couldn’t make it two years, let’s see how long he goes.

My friend said to me, well maybe Harry wanted someone who was willing to leave the monarchy with him? My theory to that is he was just 12 years old when his mother died and he was not with her at the time. Instead, he was bound by Royal law to live with his father instead of the mother he loved so much. Maybe, he always held a grudge with his father’s family for keeping him away from her? Perhaps, he thinks if she had custody of him, she would still be alive today?

When it comes to her acting career, good thing she married Harry. That is the only memorable thing about her to me. I watched Suits from day one covered a few press events with the show, and I had no idea who she was when it was announced that they were dating. She was the least interesting thing about the legal drama because her acting was forgettable. However, that is how I saw it.

Now that the two of them are free to do what they want let’s see what they do with it!

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle step down from the wax Royal family

Yesterday, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex announced that they were stepping back from the Royal family, and today Madame Tussauds in London did the same with their wax figures. Meghan Markle and Prince Harry used to stand next to Prince Phillip and Queen Elizabeth, but not anymore. Instead, there is an empty space where they used to be.

Don’t fear, their life-size candles will still be part of the museum. Steve Davies, General Manager of the branch told Metro, he does not know where their new home will be. However, he did reiterate that “they will, of course, remain an important feature at Madame Tussauds London.”

Kind of like their real life. They said on their website that, “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex will continue to use Frogmore Cottage – with the permission of Her Majesty The Queen – as their official residence as they continue to support the monarchy, and so that their family will always have a place to call home in the United Kingdom.”

Considering the rumor is that her grandson did not tell her that they were going to make the announcement before they did, the Queen can easily take it away from them. However, will she do that to grandson? Would anyone blame her if she did?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to ‘step back’ as senior members of the Royal Family
January 8th, 2020 under British Royals. [ Comments: none ]


Ever since it was announced that Prince Harry was dating Meghan Markle, he has slowly been hinting that he was going to go his separate way from the Royal Family. This has been especially obvious since his son, Archie, was born in March. Today, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex made it official.

After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution. We intend to step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent, while continuing to fully support Her Majesty The Queen.

It is with your encouragement, particularly over the last few years, that we feel prepared to make this adjustment.

We now plan to balance our time between the United Kingdom and North America, continuing to honour our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth, and our patronages.

This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity.

We look forward to sharing the full details of this exciting next step in due course, as we continue to collaborate with Her Majesty The Queen, The Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties. Until then, please accept our deepest thanks for your continued support.” – The Duke and Duchess of Sussex

What is the point of becoming a princess if you are going to walk away from it all? Actually, Princess Diana would be very proud of her son. I think this is what she would have wanted her for both of her boys. If she had lived long enough to raise them. Which is probably why Prince Harry wants to live as just Harry.

Does this mean Markle can start acting again? They are going to need money to live and that is the only job she knows.

UPDATE: Several Royal Reporters, including ITV’s Chris Ship, are reporting that neither the Queen of England nor Prince Charles knew that Harry was going to release his statement today. Therefore, Queen Elizabeth’s people responded by saying, “Discussions with The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are at an early stage. We understand their desire to take a different approach, but these are complicated issues that will take time to work through.”

This just got even more shocking.

Queen Elizabeth and her three heirs
December 23rd, 2019 under British Royals. [ Comments: none ]


Queen Elizabeth is 93 years old and she has no plans on retiring. Therefore, her son, Prince Charles, her grandson Prince William, and her great-grandson, Prince George, patiently wait until they can say that they are King of England. Until then, they will just have to make pudding. When I say they, I mean, the 6-year-old. Hey, the youngest heir to the throne has to earn his title.
