Meghan and Prince Harry are moving to the U.S./Canada - 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

So she’s going back to acting?

They are really going for it. I'm curious to see where their international residence will be.

That's something that no one else in the royal family has...aside for Prince Charles.

Oh man. Will and Kate are going to have to double their work output! Lol

Wow she really has him wrapped around her little finger. She got her Prince and all the wealth and fame that comes with it and then got him to give up his family, Royalty, and his country.

She is a great example of get your cake and eat it too.

Will see if in a couple years, he starts resenting everything he had to give up for her.

Good for them for at least partially removing themselves from the toxic fishbowl they currently endure. They seem like two genuinely good people who deserve a more normal life.

He’s a big boy who presumably knows better than you what he wants out of his life.

Yep and the rest of the royal family can't use Meghan as a scapegoat anymore.

Wills is going to have to come up with something else to cover those affairs with the british press. Andy - pedophilia-mania will be the entirety of 2020 especially with Beatrice's wedding.

They just got a spotlight back on ALLLL of them. Meanwhile Meghan gets the freedom (and love) of the U.S., Canadian, and global media.

What??!!! Sounds so dramatic, but maybe there is precedent that I don’t know about.

What honestly does working to "become financially independent" look like for a member of the royal family?

Probably a more legitimate version of Prince Andrew's backroom deals over the past decades. He's worth $50 million after begging it off despots and oil sheikhs.

Meghan/Harry won't have to go that route with all its legal + moral problems. And they're getting ahead of Prince George taking on more prominent roles post 18.

So they and their children won't be dependent on royal 'largesse' like Eugenie/poor Beatrice begging for a wedding.

Good points. I hope it works for them. Could he good for the BRF overall if they exercise good judgment.

Man...this is such a dumb move for the royal family. They would have been better off keeping them in the fold so they can work when Charles is on the throne. Just like now Anne is the hardest working royal children of the current reigning monarch can go a long way towards padding the numbers.

They don’t need a precedent.

Harry hates the UK tabloid media and what they have done to both his mother and wife. That media isn’t going away, so good for them for leaning out.
