It was always a bad idea for a Royal to marry an American, because culturally Americans have very different values from the upper British aristocracy. It’s even worse for them that they decided to make their acceptance of her symbolic of their own national virtue, as ‘diversity’ is the only candidate for a virtue they still broadly recognize.
It is not, however, my problem. One of the American values she and I share is a resolute attachment to the idea that other people’s problems are their own, and that they ought to be free to solve them without my interference as long as they don’t impose on me in doing so. We differ in that I am at least not adding to their problems. She certainly is, but I can’t imagine she feels any responsibility for helping them after they failed their own chosen test of fully accepting and supporting her.
My only take on this, figuring I don't really know what's going on inside, is that I'd have to think this was in consideration for a long time (I wouldn't imagine this would be a quick decision), and they've only been married a year and a half or so. Maybe they should have figured this out before the giant fairytale royal wedding. Then they could have eloped instead, or decided to accept the burdens of royalty. This seems, on the surface at least, too self serving.
The rumor is that Hollywood and Harry got involved with child trafficking and/or Epstein, and the British royal Queen is putting her behind the curtains (lizard) foot down.
This way if they blow up, the royals can at least say... we got rid of the American first.
