Snort! That is the funniest thing I’ve ever read on DCUM. Believe me, the Queen is about to kick them to the curb. No titles, no funding. The Sussexes are trying to spin this like they quit, but they knew they were going to be fired so they got ahead of the PR spin. |
You say they can't work like any of them can have a 9 to 5 honest job. Their "work" is always going to be either a paid representative for something, or a fundraiser, essentially monetizing their celebrity. |
Whatever. This is the same UK press that reported the Queen was blindsided by Prince Andrew’s pedo interview. You know the one held in Buckingham Palace? In state apartments? |
| MM seems unsuited to the job of being a royal (except the I’m a princess part) and the job seems beyond stiff and boring. I can see why they want to leave. But Harry IS a royal so I think the marriage won’t last. She had the baby for a reason! |

For the non biased, non-controversial summary, BBC does it well enough:

They're not begging them to stay, they're making a factual statement. Clearly Harry and Meghan didn't think this through. I'm sure they haven't considered security, where they'll live, funding, engagements, etc. For two people who have long been supported financially by the Firm, this is a disgusting, self-serving, immature, irresponsible and disrespectful move. It looks like a public temper tantrum being thrown two grown adults who just want to get their way. Except that their entire plan for "self-sufficiency" still hinges on their relation to and history with the Crown. Nobody is interested in Harry or MM simply because they think they are nice or intelligent people. They trademarked Sussex Royal so they could make money from branding and merchandising while completely disregarding the fact that they only reason Sussex Royal even exists and has any notoriety is...because of the Crown that they just publicly blindsided and disrespected! |
no - an actual link to a press release. |
| Disrespectful and actually sort of passive aggressive.... I can not believe they did not run this past Charles or the Queen. I though MM and Charles were besties? |
Beat them at what? |
| During the Queens recent speech at the end of the year, their pictures were not on her desk. Since every public detail is given much thought, this may have been a factor in why. |
This is coming from reporters. Unless you work for the Rota I can’t help you. |

1. Royal life wasn't as fun as she thought it would be
2. They didn't think this through |
Which reporters? |
| Once again, Kate comes out smelling like a rose. She keeps her head down and stays out of the fray. |
He’s a grown man with his pick of women in the world. He was made to march behind the casket of his dead mother who was killed by chasing paparazzi. He was depressed and angry afterward and is now finally himself and speaking out to protect his son from the same future. |
