They didn’t tell anyone they were going to do this? For a couple who don’t want the limelight they seem keen to cause drama, jeez fair enough step back but to announce it with no warning is a right slap in the face

True

Yeah, I think regardless of what has gone on, to not have the respect to even tell the Queen before making a public announcement is a really sh*tty thing to do.

It's not like quitting a TV show Meghan love.

So, according to Newsnight, the Queen was informed a few days ago.
Just not enough time to sort it all out.:shrug:
Good luck to them, they make a lovely little family.

FFS they are adults with a family, they can do what they want without having to ask Dad and Granny first. Hope William quits too but I can't see it, him and Kate were stepfordised years ago.

Morgan. 08-01-2020 10:24 PM

I’d say Harry is a great shout for I’m a Celeb next year then :fc: Maybe Meghan on Strictly too :shrug:

Well said.
Besides the family should scale back and downsize. All these ribbon cuttings can be done by local officials.
Imo only the monarch and the heir should do official duties. And only important ones.

Not surprised Harry and Meghan have been driven to this by the toxicity and the tabloid rags.

Are they going to pay back the millions of pounds of tax payers money that was recently spent renovating their Windsor home a perk of being part of the royal family.

A few meet and greets is all Harry had to do.

They won’t step away from the lime light instead they will be running around the world living the celebrity lifestyle.

Sure TS.
but they put it online
before informing the Queen.

Do we the UK Tax payers
pay for a armed guard to go with them?


Because we should not longer fund them
if they are in USA.

They would be on front pages however it was announced.

You blaming them for that is ridiculous

it's pretty obvious there has been a lot of friction behind the scenes which seems very odd given how close William and Harry have always been up until very recently. I think the Royal family have tried to take their usual approach to solving the problem by basically telling them to shut up and accept their lot and Harry has said nope, not having it. He is his mothers son.

...that’s the sad thing that I hope doesn’t happen now with Harry and Meghan...the intense media attention on Diana never diminished...so ‘stepping back’ was never an option..

Common courtesy, Harry has always got on with his Dad and the Queen, would anyone have noticed if they stepped back without announcing it, I doubt it :laugh:
