Are Harry and Meghan leaving the royal family?
Prince Harry and Meghan, Duchess of Sussex, disclosed Wednesday that they will “step back as ‘senior’ members of the Royal Family and work to become financially independent,” splitting their time between the United Kingdom and North America.
“After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year in starting to carve out a progressive new role within this institution,” the pair said in a statement posted to Instagram.
The statement continued, “This geographic balance will enable us to raise our son with an appreciation for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also providing our family with the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity.
The Royal Family has formerly publicized a statement in response to Harry and Meghan’s breaking news.
"Discussions with The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are at an early stage," the statement read. "We understand their desire to take a different approach, but these are complicated issues that will take time to work through."
