This is clearly a highly influential publication. Only a couple of weeks after I pleaded in these pages for the repatriation to America of Meghan Markle, the Duchess of Sussex, it was accomplished. In a magnificently self-regarding and self-pitying statement to the world, Prince Harry and his recalcitrant wife announced that they would be ‘stepping back’ from royal duties and spending much more time in ‘Canada’, or, as it is more familiarly known, Los Angeles.
In this statement, released without the Queen’s knowledge, Harry and Meghan expressed a vague wish that they might at some point in time become ‘financially independent’ from the British taxpayer, seemingly possessed of the interesting belief

No matter who great-grandma is, if she’s paying the bills, you show respect and deference. Or get the hell out of the house and show some respect anyway.

The most telling feature of Meghan's behaviour, not dealt with here, is the fact that she is keeping baby Archie from his British family. And, is she even taking care of him?

fta: " Nor did the Canucks explode with joy at the news. An opinion poll suggested that three-quarters of the population would rather gnaw off their own legs than pay a single cent in order to keep the pair in the manner to which they are accustomed — with retinues of flunkies, heavies to beat up press photographers, private jets, new house, quinoa smoothies, therapists and a nonbinary vegan nursery for their blameless offspring, Archie. (‘Archie’ isn’t a name, by the way. It’s a nickname, like ‘Bubba’ or ‘Jace’). No — for Megs, it’s California, Here One Comes. "
Clever article. Yes even Canada doesn't want her. We sure as heck do but I am sure Oprah and the left coast will take her back in, the grifter.
And I am so glad I am not the only one who finds "Archie" to be a silly actual first name. It's a nickname or a calling name. A pet name or hypocorism. Not a real first name. But nowadays, the stupid names people attach to their children makes me shake my head.

correction due to fat fingers: "We sure as heck DON'T!" Don't get any ideas Megs. I really thought the receipt said " No returns. No refund. "

#5, David was the Duke of Windsor. Albert (Bertie) was his brother, King George VI.

I sure as Hell hope not. Now I understand that Meghan hopes to star in Superhero movies! Do those making them think they will gain an audience beyond the comic book loving/action devouring with her in a supporting (?) role: e.g. get wives and girlfriends to swell the audience numbers. I sincerely doubt it, but producers of films are so out of the loop that they try anyhow.

I think Harry was brainwashed by the Obama’s and MeAgain finished him off. He made the biggest mistake of his life leaving the Royal Family.

Archie is actually an appropriate name for the love child of Jughead and the evil Veronica.

No, don't think so...better that they should be repartiated to a desert island with no outside communications...then we would be rid of them..Harry is stupid and thinks with the end of his male member, and she is just a worthless Hollywood gold digger...

" stepping back " probably the most creative phrase I've read in a long time. sparkle farkel markel and harry the whipped paid a PR person a lot for this version of " We Quit " The people love and are loyal to The Queen, the harkels.........not so much.

The earlier poster presented an apt reference. Edward VIII seemed to truly believe he could prevail over the PM and the government powers. He thought he could remain King and have Wallis, too.
Harry seemed to be of a similar opinion. Or maybe it was Meghan who believed the couple could quit working so hard as royals, could decamp to happier climes without giving up anything important.
Both men were woefully mistaken.

ya gotta admit whinge & ginge are a fun gossipy divertissement . There is speculation that baby “Archie” is a doll , with differing human stand-ins and the pregnancy fake or surrogate .I think the humor comes from the free-loading wokiness of this pair .Their rudeness to their Grandparents The Queen & Prince , country & taxpayers is boundless .

They can open a food truck in LA and call it Mad Maggies Bangers and Mash with Harry's favorite onion gravy. Financial independence is their dream come true.

Who will People Magazine and other tabloids feature on their covers now? Between Meghan and Kate, I was beginning to wonder if we had become British subjects again? All to avoid having anything to say about our beautiful and accomplished FLOTUS, who is doing a magnificent job. The trip to India alone was worth a 5 page spread but nooooo...! There is an outright ban on coverage on the Trumps.

No, I don't think so. He is a lost boy trapped in a man's body. She is a product of Hollywood. I do feel for the British royals though. Traditionally, the senior royals never went out on their own and got a job. They were left to drift, like Charles and Harry and Andrew. The happiest royals I suspect are the younger generation, like Anne's kids and Margaret's son and daughter. Those two especially have great and productive lives away from the royals.
I am glad that Harry is trying to find his way in private life. I suspect he would still be in the military if the media hadn't blown his cover. He loved the military and was well suited to it.

# 24 - You're right about People magazine. The catch is they don't seem to understand that neither Kate nor MeAgain are princesses. They called Kate princess a couple of covers ago and MeAgain listed herself as princess on Archie's birth certificate. Neither is a princess. They are both a dutchess.

No. 6 - who is 'ex-Rex Bertie"? Are you referring to Prince David Windsor, aka King Edward who married Wallis Simpson? The only Bertie in the British Royal Family was Queen Elizabeth's father, Albert Windsor, Duke of York, who became King George VI after his dingbat brother abdicated. The name Bertie comes from Albert of course, and was passed on to him as a descendant of Queen Victoria and her beloved husband, Prince Albert. So, what I am saying is the 'Bertie" became King George VI, and was never and Ex-Rex.
