Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decision to step down as senior royals in 2020 was one no one saw coming.

By choosing independence over duty, the Sussexes revealed that all was not well behind Palace walls.

The move shocked the royal family, according to royal author Valentine Low.

He revealed that when Harry and Markle went to Canada for a six-week break in November 2019, they withheld their exact location to prevent leaks of their ‘escape plans’ to the US.

Sarah Ferguson continues to hold the title of Duchess of York despite her divorce from Prince Andrew nearly three decades ago.

Her retention of her title reflects longstanding conventions within the British monarchy, where divorced royal wives can maintain courtesy titles but lose the honor of Her Royal Highness (HRH).

This mirrors the precedent set with Princess Diana, who became Diana, Princess of Wales, after her divorce from then-Prince Charles.

On 21 August 1996, Queen Elizabeth II issued a letter patent clarifying this rule.

Prince Harry was over the moon when his nephew, Prince George, was born on 22 July 2013.

In his memoir, the elated Duke fondly recalled how he hoped to ‘pop in’ and wrestle with little George after becoming an uncle.

However, following Harry’s move to the US, a new ‘fun uncle’ has become George’s shoulder for support.

According to body language expert Judi James, Mike Tindall has taken Harry’s place as his favorite uncle, thanks to his jovial and cheeky personality.
