Drama at House Sussex! By now you've probably read about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's surprise announcement, but if you haven't, let us sum it up: the couple is stepping down from some of their senior royal duties, and are moving to North America part time.
On Wednesday, the couple stated they plan to become "financially independent" and will personally select the media outlets to cover their engagements, rather than participate in the U.K.'s royal rota.
Buckingham Palace released their own statement in response, saying, "discussions with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are at an early stage," and that the details "will take time to work through."
Although there's been a flurry of reports about what went down behind the scenes, details on when the duke and duchess plan to officially break (partially) away from the Royal Family have yet to be confirmed.
In the meantime, there's been plenty of activity since Harry and Meghan made their announcement, and we're looking forward to hearing more about their plans for 2020.
Take care, royal watchers! 👑 👑 |
