Meghan Markle has made it clear to all willing to listen that she and her husband, Prince Harry, are determined to break away from the Royal Family completely.
This was the pivotal moment in 2020 when the power couple, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, decided to step down from their royal duties, a move that was dubbed “Megxit” by the media.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle sought to escape the rigors of royal life, including its traditions, rules, protocols, and ideologies.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry happily relocated to California, where they have been forging their path as a family, philanthropists, and entrepreneurs.
They have embraced the freedom they fought for to make a positive impact in the world, and they are doing it on their terms.
Prince Harry and the former actress have become vocal about politics, meddling in American presidential elections and addressing issues such as social injustice, racism, and women’s rights.
From the outside, the divorce from the archaic monarchy and royal way of doing things was completed, and there was no looking back.
However, the Daily Mail has thrown a curveball into this narrative. According to an unexpected bombshell, Prince Harry and his wife are still clinging to the royal way of doing things to the point that they have attempted to replicate the hierarchical system that has been in place in the Royal Family for several centuries.
The Daily Mail reported: “The Duke and Duchess of Sussex have created their royal household. The couple, who left their roles as senior royals in 2020, have dramatically revamped the structure of their staff to create a more hierarchical system similar to the one that has successfully underpinned Prince Harry’s family for decades. Meredith Kendall Maines, a seasoned communications strategist whose role has already drawn comparisons with Sir Clive Alderton, the formidable Private Secretary to King Charles III and Queen Camilla, will lead a team of 11, operating out of Montecito, California, and the UK. The new operation will be run separately to Archewell, the Sussexes’ philanthropic foundation.”
A source told this newspaper: “A Royal Household-style structure will give them both a streamlined framework that has been missing since they left the Royal Family. The recent polling showing that [Harry] is one of the lowest-regarded royals means he has at last conceded there’s nowhere to go but up. There’s humility there. It’s time to streamline his operation and find a new way to convey his message. Service above oneself is the cornerstone of everything he does.”
The media outlet also noted: “Previously, the Sussexes relied on informal advisers; however, the hope is that by following the same trusted methods as the monarchy, they will be able to safeguard their reputation and develop their business and philanthropic interests.”
Many see this leak as a colossal disservice to Prince Harry and Markle, who have declared their independence from the old system. The have also spent a lot of time criticizing the workings of the monarchy.
In interviews, the Netflix series, and the book Spare, the Sussexes have gone out of their way to confess their disdain for the old guard that is the monarchy of the United Kingdom.
Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duchess of Sussex, have explained that they left because they were not allowed to bring about change; so, why are they trying to recreate it in America?
