Wednesday, Jan 8, 2020

What in the Royals is going on?!

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle took the world by storm when they announced plans on Wednesday to “step back as senior members of the Royal Family.” In an official statement, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex confirmed plans for balancing their time between U.K. and North America. Additionally, the couple intends to “carve out a progressive new role within this institution” and become financially independent, while continuing to “fully support” the Queen.

Whew, the Royal tea is HOT.

“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 For more information, please visit sussexroyal.com (link in bio) Image © PA
