The Queen confirms Harry and Meghan will NOT be returning as royals and will be stripped of their honorary roles as Megxit deal is sealed a month early - but couple respond by stating: 'We can ALL live a life of service'
Daily Mail (U.K.) ^ | February 19, 2021 | Mark Duell

The Queen has confirmed that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle will not be returning as working members of the Royal Family nearly a year after stepping down, Buckingham Palace said today.

The dramatic announcement was made in a palace statement at midday today, and sees the Sussexes quit for good more than one month before the one-year 'Megxit' review was due to be concluded on March 31.

Buckingham Palace referred to the Sussexes as 'much loved members of the family' and said it was 'saddened by their decision'. It also revealed the Queen had 'written confirming that in stepping away from the work of the Royal Family it is not possible to continue with the responsibilities and duties that come with a life of public service'.

Now cut off the cash pipeline, with the Queen saying” you and that bitch can get a job now. Be of service. Walmart is hiring greeters!”

No question...But one cannot deny the impact, regardless of race, of the psychological trauma brought on by the stress factors associated with royalty. And what does it matter if royalty is bestowed by centuries of social-decrepitue or screaming multitudes of rock-’n’-roll crazed ditty-boppers? /s (if still necessary)

Is Meghan the greatest dumpster fire, social climbing, casting couch whore in history?

No, that would be Willie Brown's former ho.

Harry inherited his brainpower from his mother - a complete fey. Mindnumbingly dumb

Chuck isn't exactly the brightest bulb, neither.

I agree, do your own thing and be happy. Just don’t try to monetize your titles and your connection to the British royal family and keep being subsidized by the British taxpayers and British charities and organizations, which is what they were trying to do. Queenie said no.

Royalty is stupid. “Hi, my great-great-grandaddy had this job and I inherited it from him because I have the same blood”.

What a freaking idiotic way to run a country. Absolutely ridiculous. I hate royalty with a passion. Nobody voted for you, ya’ jackwipe.

The sad thing is that Harry was really good at being a royal. He seemed to really enjoy his role, and people really liked him. They’ve made a big deal of his supposed depression and unhappiness, but I think Markle cultivated his unhappiness because she was NEVER made for unselfish service. It was the wedge she used to pry him away from boring royal responsibilities that SHE didn’t want. The only one she really wants to serve is herself.

But, given her history, one must ask what favors Kamala gave in exchange for her JD.

I think we have seen the real Harry (stupid, hot-headed, entitled spoiled brat) since he married Markle. His former image was created by a lot of PR.

------------------------

It was easier to be royalty/celebrity before mass and social media. Think of how much the Kennedys got away with.

Course, there's also the fact that if the press is covering for someone (Kennedys, Bidens) they can have a huge impact on public perception. I've never paid that much attention to Harry/Meghan, but it's clear the press is making hits on them. Yeah, she probably is exactly what you say, but if she was part of the protected class, it wouldn't get covered.

I don't know much about Harry...or Meghan. What little I know about him suggests that he's a decent sort. And what little I know about her suggests the opposite.

There's a video on youtube of Harry,in his British Army dress uniform,laying a wreath at our Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at Arlington National Cemetery. I found it quite impressive.

Also,I don't know how old he was when his mother died but that couldn't have been easy for him...at all.Add his father's mistreatment of his mother and you have an early life that featured a good amount of difficulty.

I do hope that I'm wrong about her because he does,as I said,strike me as a decent guy.

That makes sense. Now they are private citizens. Just plain 'ole Meghan and Harry. Now they are free to speak what is on their mind. Not when they were representing the British Royal Family.

Queenie finally cut the ungrateful brats loose. It took her long enough to fire these two completely from the family firm. They can whine to Oprah about it.

I don't care about them or Oprah.

Same here. I'm not fond of the Brits. Their monarchy is one of the reasons I don't like them.

Meghan is to the Monarchy in England as Yoko Ono was to the the Beatles.
