They wanted out of the UK limelight. The media and online abuse this pair gets is horrendous. This week a retiring security officer has disclosed the extent of the serious threats made against them, obviously this will have been a major concern for them. The refusal to allow them to pay for their own security if they returned to the UK for official visits etc, knowing of the threats, is incomprehensible. The Lady Hussey debacle this week is an indication of the racism within the Royal Family. Hussey was very close to the Queen for decades, her views will have been well known and accepted. Questioning the likely colour of the Sussexes' first child by a RF member is an indication of how Meghan was welcomed or not. The Cambridge's could have done a hell of a lot more to welcome Harry's wife, but they didn't. Why? Did they see the Sussexes as a threat, probably. Meghan is much more assured and able to speak off the cuff than Kate, she has experience of life, work etc which Kate doesn't. Kate did not work, she wasn't called Waity Katie for nothing. After getting a good degree at a top university she worked for a short time for her parents firm and had one other small job. No career at all. Even the Queen suggested she work. The Sussexes were a threat to the Cambridges, it really is like an episode or 6 of The Tudors! They could have been an incredible duo, they could have shown the British media that they were a close team. But no. On the birth of Archie they stayed away. The cousins were not introduced for weeks, who does that to his only brother? The self serving Cambridges are the villains in this tragedy, and the UK and the RF are the losers.
