They work quietly day after day, year after year to help others without being lauded for that work. How often do we hear of what they are doing unless you go looking in the official Royal site? People would be surprised at their workload.
Harry and Meghan can't do anything without instructing their PR to let the world know, releasing zoom call videos and photos.

Oh come on Jet....they put their name on things. As soon as something is Royal approved or has a Royal Patron they have automatic status. They have staff who do the admin, staff who do the leg work, staff who do the research, staff who make the calls....they may do a Zoom call every now and then. Please don't expect me to believe they are beavering away in front of their laptops doing charity work. They have staff. They may be the "face" of the cause but other people do the work.

Why do you always have to mention Harry? He's not a working Royal so inconsequential as I keep saying.

The real heroes are the ones who help their communities from the ground, the teacher who helps disadvantaged kids, the shop worker who works in a food bank in their spare time, the people suffering from cancer who run the race for life to raise funds to help others, the people who go out to feed the homeless. They are the role models we should be promoting to our kids,not rich folk who have people to do the hard work

I have a lot of respect for the Queen, she is a strong woman but a strong woman born into money who has, and always has had, help in every aspect of her life from getting dressed to going about her duties.
