Meghan Markle, Prince Harry waged war against being treated as ‘pieces of royal furniture’

Meghan and Prince Harry were in hot water when they announced they will be quitting as senior members of the royal family. This result came after when they took a stand against the ill-treatment of themselves by the monarchy.

According to royal author Clive Irving, as people of the 21st century, Harry and Meghan thought of monarchy as a thing of the past and were unable to relate to its relevance today.

“This question of relevance is very important, because Charles is basically an 18th-century figure, whereas Meghan and Harry live in the present world, they are of the real world, and that’s one of the reasons why they couldn’t really fit in back home,” Irving said.

He added that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex look like a show piece [ pieces of royal furniture] and are driven to do good works.

“If you look at YouGov polling over the last few years, you can see that the Millennials and even younger people are much more sceptical over what is the point of this institution and how it can stay relevant with the times we are living now,” the expert concluded.
