It’s no longer news that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, Prince Harry, and Meghan Markle have decided to quit their roles as senior members of the Royal Family.
The news, however, is that their decision to quit their roles as senior members of the Royal Family and work towards financial independence came without the knowledge of the Queen, Prince Charles or Prince William.
Members of the Royal Family reportedly learned about the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s decision when it broke on television. According to the report, the Queen and her family were deeply disappointed
Queen Elizabeth responded to their announcement with a statement from Buckingham Palace and called it a “complicated issue.”
It read “Discussions with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are at an early stage. We understand their desire to take a different approach, but these are complicated issues that will take time to work through.”
