In a hardly surprising twist, Prince Harry and Meghan’s sprint to California seems like it was always on the cards, albeit accelerated by the pandemic. Amidst global chaos and their much-discussed departure from royal life, their move raises more than a few eyebrows, especially considering their short-lived Canadian sojourn. This saga, wrapped in choices between private jets and environmental pledges, private security, and public funding, unfolds as a masterclass in navigating the fine line between personal desire and public perception.
“Evening Standard newspaper on 21st January 2020 in London, England, United Kingdom.

Prince Harry and Markle announced recently that they will step back from their roles as senior royals to share their time between the UK and Canada, and to continue both their charity work and continue to a degree their royal responsibilities.”
What a load of complete rubbish!

“They were always heading to L.A. That was the master plan,” Katie Nicholl, Vanity Fair’s royal correspondent, said via email.
But as with so much else in the world right now, the coronavirus pandemic may have prompted a change in their plans, and moved up the timing of their departure from Vancouver Island, where they had been living with their young son, Archie, since November.
