Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the royal family two years ago in what has since been dubbed ‘Megxit,’ and the Queen, according to a royal author, was on their side.

Tina Brown, a royal editor, recently commented on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex’s departure from royal life, claiming that Queen Elizabeth could “see how unhappy Harry and Meghan were” in the arrangement and was “genuinely conflicted.”

A source told Brown, according to Fox News, that “the family saw the split coming only months later, in the summer of 2019.” Everyone could see how dissatisfied Harry and Meghan were. Everyone was in favour of them leaving.

“But they wanted it done in a timely manner,” the insider continued. They also wanted it done in a way that would set a good precedent. William has three children. The example they set for this generation would have an impact on his children. He’s well aware of it. As a result, they demanded that it be done correctly.”

Brown also revealed that Prince Harry was the one who finalised the Sussexes’ decision to leave the royal family in the UK and relocate to the United States.
