    I agree.

    Since Charles and Philip have talked about downsizing the Royals, - perhaps, just maybe, - Harry and Meghan have indicated that they see the writing on the wall and are insisting that they be part of the conversation and consultation rather than simply pawns in the game.
    As Cicero said, “Gratitude is not only the greatest of virtues, but the parent of all the others.”

    Or maybe she fits a role. Every good Duchess needs a bad Duchess for the storyline to progress.

    Can a semi-mystical bond between monarch and subject ultimately survive being defined down to a brand?

    Can ancillary royals limit their obligations to the system while at the same time leveraging their royal status commercially and politicaly Kardashian style without subtracting something from the House of Windsor?

    Perhaps you’re thinking of The Netherlands. The king (Wilhem something?) is a pilot for KLM.
    that could be, royals is not my expertise.

    Thought that you might find this interesting. I didn't see the play myself but am amused by the coincidence.

    This article was interesting. I hadn't realized that there were only 5 media outlets that are given access to the royal family. No wonder the paparazzi are so obnoxious.

    And if the double standard presented by the article is accurate, no wonder they want out.
