Exactly - I was very surprised they made this statement today. I would not be surprised at all if they renounced completely once the queen dies, but not before then, especially if Will and Kate have more children. 

Whew! They laid it out on their website!! (sussexroyal.com) If this really comes to fruition for them (I hope it does.), the UK media shot themselves in the foot. No more pre/exclusive access for the 7+/- outlets.  It seems like they still get security.  Good!

Seems like a smart decision. Prince Charles has promised a slimmed down royalty which a focus just on himself and Camilla and William and Kate. The Queen just put out a holiday photo focused on the three heirs to the throne. Similarly, during her Christmas speech the photos presented next to her were of the three…

And if they renounce the money, which they’re in the process of doing (which I imagine involves a ton of red tape), who cares if they keep the titles? Heck, they deserve them all the shit Meghan in particular has been subjected to.

Me: Warren/Castro 2020!

A Warren/Castro ticket would be such a fucking dream. I’ve met Warren a couple of times in informal situations (once on a train, once at a bar) and I’m more than impressed by her, she’s great.

I have not stopped cackling over this since I first heard about it a few hours ago.

Good for them! They’ve been put through hell by the royal family and the press. I had a feeling this was coming. Harry has never seemed to care for being a royal, and seeing how his wife has been treated must have been the last straw. I hope they can have some peace now. Though I doubt the press will ever let up, they…

British Press: Hey Meghan You Have to Stand there & take our racist bullshit. Got it?

The story would be infinitely better if, instead of “moving to Canada” (YAWN), it was something more like, “From Paris, where the Prince Harry and Duchess Meghan appeared after slipping out of London in the dead of night, surrounded by French officials, Prince Harry denounced his grandmother, Queen Elizabeth, as a…

Good for both of them, also this is delightful

I thought he’d wait until his nephew was 16, or whenever they start making him travel in separate cars from his family, but maybe Harry’s looking at what his uncle is doing in the name of furthering the abolition of the monarchy, not to mention what Brexit is doing to England as a whole, and decided to get while the…

Yup and I think prior to that he was seriously considering removing himself from the royal family. I dont blame him one bit. Especially how the press over there has treated his wife. Imagine what they would try to do to their son. If that happened, I believe we would see a side of Harry that no one’s ever seen before.…

They’ve got plenty of money, apparently the “royal” funds they receive is only 5% of their income. They’re giving that up. Look, Charles wanted to slim down those who took money anyway, so I’m sure they were more than happy to give it up on their own accord, considering how they( Megan in particular) has been treated.…

Who didn’t see this coming? Harry stopped being about that royal life well before he got married. He started “doing him” when his nephew was born.

She’s going to need a strong January. I still feel like she’s probably the second most “electable” of the candidates, but she really needed Sanders to cooperate. And he is not cooperating.

Auto-play ads with sound?! Has Deadspin taught your greedy corporate overlords nothing? 

And Private Eye is once again shown to be one of the few decent news sources left in the UK as they called this in November (https://jezebel.com/harry-and-meghan-are-skipping-out-on-christmas-with-the-1839829130).

The headline is wrong and they haven’t actually quit being royalty. They’re just “stepping back as senior royalty”—basically, moving themselves from the first group on this list to the second group on this list. Still part of the royal family, but not on the royal payroll.

He also gets millions a year from his father’s estate. He’ll just loose 2 million a year in public purse money and more key; his staffing allowance which runs around 1 million a year including nanny and security.
