The Duchess of Sussex leaves the UK for Canada less than two days after she and husband Prince Harry announced that they would “step back” from their roles as senior members of the British royal family.
They say they would like to keep their recently refurbished home in Windsor, and their royal protection and security, but plan to take a new approach to the British press after scathing coverage of the couple — in particular Meghan.
The couple’s decision to have a more independent life has been dubbed #Megxit, provoking vitriol from British tabloids, royalists and pundits. Commentary in The Daily Mail — which traditionally supports the monarchy — and other mass market tabloids has been scathing. "It's almost as if nothing matters to this couple apart from their own immediate happiness and gratification, as though they are incapable of seeing beyond their own little bubble of privilege," one columnist wrote.after the tabloid published a private letter written by Meghan earlier this year.
In The Sun, Hugo Vickers wrote that it was"impossible not to think" that Harry"has been influenced by his wife with her Californian ideas.", as well as “engage with grassroots media organizations.”
