The more I think of it, it's tempting to have this revolve around Meghan, when Harry has probably been wanting to leave the royal family for a very long time, well before he met her. I do wonder if Meghan represented a ticket out for him and an excuse to leave.
It's disappointing to me that a royal like Harry, who was always a real favourite, doesn't want it (or the people) anymore. There's more to being a royal than just newspaper articles. It's the public that are excited to meet them at events, walkabouts, royal tours. And so the way this whole thing very visibly represents a middle finger to the royal family and the Commonwealth is regrettable.
And in that sense, if it becomes a case that Harry wants to leave for North America and potentially say to the people that he isn't interested in them anymore (and potentially doing a host of interviews and books that are critical to the country)... it's hard for him to justify living off millions of pounds of rent each year that has been paid by the people to the Duchy of Cornwall.
It's a long way from King George and the Princesses who refused to leave Buckingham Palace while London was being bombed in WWII - the famous quote from the Queen Mother:
The children won't go without me. I won't leave without the King. And the King will never leave.
And I might just leave this here:

For all the talk of others, the Queen has walked the walked and in my opinion will go down as one of the great feminist icons of female dignity and power in history.
