Princes and princesses, earls, barons, dukes, lords and ladies, etc. live in a real world today. They take outside jobs sitting on corporate boards, have positions with banks and big companies. Many have had long, paid military careers like the Queen's husband, Prince Philip. Princess Beatrice worked for an investment company and is now studying Finance to further her career. Prince William, heir to the throne, had a day job as a helicopter ambulance pilot for Bond Air Service.
Prince Edward worked for a theater company. His wife has her own PR firm.
Before she was Queen, Princess Elizabeth worked as a truck driver.
Prince Harry and Meghan are doing what many royals do in all the monarchies over the world, from the northern European countries, to Monaco, in Asian and African counties. They don't HAVE to work, they WANT to work.
Now, the Sussexes are being damned, despised, denigrated, castigated and accused of "cashing in on their names" as they venture forth to make a life on their own and to work at what they love to do....and, furthermore, as the lurid media wants us to believe, they are NOT "divorcing the royal family".
And....they are NOT staying on the public payroll !
So why all the hatred and poison directed at this particular couple by so many FReepers on this thread ?....I have to ask!

You obviously see something positive in them that many of us don’t.
I hope you are right.....I will say no more.
Well said.
