Sorry, I know there are loads of Harry and Meghan threads, but I haven't seen my question discussed anywhere.
It's been on the news that Charles wants a slimmed down monarchy. Whether that's true or not, who the hell knows.
BUT if it is true, how would the Senior Totals have gone about getting rid of those close to those in the direct line of for the throne, without looking like arseholes?
So, on the basis of fuck all knowledge and with my tin foil hat firmly in place, could the Sussexes stepping back from being Senior Royals have been done with family consent? With them subsequently being thrown under the bus so that the Queen/Charles/William don't look responsible, and it looks like the Sussexes have had a strop instead?
I think it was Tom Bradby that said that it wasn't true that the Royal Family didn't know, and that they have known for a few months. Isn't he the guy who the Royals generally trust to interview them?
Prepared to be flamed. I just think the timing given the whole Prince Andrew clusterfuck is interesting. I wondered if the RF thought that they may as well be hung for a sheep as a lamb while the family is in disarray anyway, and bin off the Sussexes whilst blaming them for it.
