Prince Harry and Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle, after long discussions, decided to step down from all royal duties and begin an independent life.
Buckingham Palace has issued a statement from the couple, who said they would spend time connecting the United States and the United Kingdom and thus remain in touch with the Royal Family.
"This geographical balance will allow us to raise our son with respect for the royal tradition in which he was born, while at the same time providing our family with plenty of time for new chapters in our lives," it said.
This sudden and dramatic decision came after Harry and Meghan spent six weeks on holiday in Canada with their eight-month-old son Archie away from the royal family.
"After months of thought and internal discussions, we have decided to make changes this year, and we will start to change our roles. We intend to retire as 'older' members of the Royal Family and work towards becoming financially independent. In doing so, we continue to be fully committed. to support Her Majesty the Queen, "the statement said.
Recall Prince Harry and Meghan Markle went with their eight-month-old son Archie to Canada in late November last year when their spokesman revealed that the couple had decided to retire and devote to the family after a year marked by their "fight" with royal roles. So they "avoided" the traditional celebration of New Year's holidays as part of the Royal Family, and from the holiday they also shared one of the few private photos of their son to congratulate New Year's fans.
