Especially followed by Prince Perv because for what Diana knew, she feared for her life. I agree with Bill but Diana was an exception. I was a girl when she married and I shared the experience with my mom. That is the magical illusion of it all. But, Diana used her position to help soo many others, to bring awareness to serious issues and to be a role model to young women. Until... If her sons have a different idea as how to run their lives, they have earned it! "Royal Blood" was something important once. They felt that there were no defects or "blood sickness" that would contaminate the blood line and they wanted to keep it that way. This was the very opposite of what their subjects had lived with. This is why hemophilia, found in the current Royal Blood Line, proves that there was a switcheroo back in the day..

They are keeping Frogmore Cottage and funding from Prince Charles. Nothing has been taken from them and they haven't given up anything. Megs wanted to use HRH as her brand, but the royals do *not* get paid to work with brands and can’t be seen to be influenced by sponsorship deals. Harry and Meg are still the president and vice president of the Queen's Commonwealth Trust and are establishing additional foundations much like the Soros and Clinton foundations. Consider who is hosting them in Canada and who has been advising them. This is a move by the Queen to squirrel away and launder trafficking monies.

This is the crux of the issue with Harry and Meghan. Their beef is not that the Royal Family is racist etc. Their beef is that the piece of the pie they were being given wasn't big enough. They don't really reject the system (or they would have given back Frogmore Cottage without being asked), their complaint is that they aren't privileged enough!

That's why I live five hours from mine. Close, but far enough away.

I am okay with the current system with a king as head of state, because it works. But if my country decides to get rid of him, I could live with that as well. Although I would want strict limits on the power of a president as well.

These are the vast family properties initially leased to Parliament by George III in exchange for a stipend, and which continue under that arrangement to this day. The government makes far, far more off these properties than the royal family gets-to the point that, if that relationship were ever ended, and the leasing of the Crown Estates stopped, it would either bankrupt the government or cause a significant increase in taxes. The UK is not propping up the royal family, it's the other way around.
