They are welcomed to go anywhere and do whatever they want, As long as
us taxpayers no longer subsidise their high life style

and the rest of the royal family, are currently being thrown under the
bus to stop the press talking about something else happening at the end
of the month.

1) Self assessment tax returns
2) Leaving the EU
3) Windows 7
4) WW III

Just because one person gets assassinated, doesn't mean there will be a
world war.

Oh, wait...

How much invisible earnings does the UK Royal family make for
our balance of payments ?.

I thought you lived in a tax haven, so you don't pay any
tax ??.

Er, I think you're getting mixed up with me. But I totally agree with
NP on this matter. I also find it extremely vexing when this pair are
described in the media as "senior royals." That term really only
properly applies to the Queen, Philip, Charles and Anne. Neither Harry
nor what'sername are royal, in fact. Harry is the fruit of another
man's loins and that man was a commoner. And giving them the dukedom
of Sussex - wtf? What connection have either of them got to the
county? They pay lip service and visit it once; doesn't mean a damn
thing. So they can relinquish those titles as well as pack in sucking
on the public teat for everything else AFAIC.
Like many others I knew Harry had made a giant chump of himself
getting hitched up to an American divorcee Hollywood actress. What
could possibly go wrong? Plenty still to come I reckon.

Legally, for a very long time, a child belongs to the husband regardless
of genetics. The alternative would be too complicated and disruptive,
certainly before DNA.

Given William is in the direct line of succession, most would consider him
a senior royal? Senior as in important?

When he was #3 maybe, but now he's #6? Not so much.

Reports say one of the reasons the royals are so ****ed off with this
week's developments is that they were planning on slimming down and
Harry/Meghan were going to be part of the cuts anyway. FFS if he's got
£30m in the bank, what's he worried about?

Surely Meghan has a bit of money making potential, with her Hollywood
connections. They could probably do a reality tv show, like The
Osbournes. The series finale could be Harry meeting his real dad.

If that wasn't to their taste, Harry could do an investigation series
into who murdered his mum. Probably good to get that one underway ASAP
before the main suspect pops off. A second series could investigate the
Epstein connection.

I know Gore Vidal said the royals were exceptionally boring people, but
I think, with the right writers, Harry could make a good fist of it.

Harry and whatserface saying they're going to leave the Royal
Household but take all the family silver with them is akin to the UK
saying 'we're leaving the EU but we're going to continue to have a
rewarding and cordial relationship. In both cases, you need the
consent of the other party before you lay out how it's going to be.
Harry has been a *massive* chump and this woman has quite turned his
head.
