Meghan Markle and Prince Harry felt they had no option but to depart Britain at the conclusion of their stay.
After the disclosure of their plans to reside in a Commonwealth nation by a prominent media outlet, the pair decided to issue a statement announcing their departure.
In his memoir ‘Spare,’ the Duke of Sussex writes: “At six P.M, we were done. We gathered around the laptop, read the draft one last time. One staffer messaged the private secretaries of Granny, Pa and Willy, told them what was coming. Willy’s guy replied immediately: This is going to go nuclear. “
Harry reveals: “I knew, of course, that many Britons would be shocked, and saddened, which made my stomach churn. But in due course, once they knew the truth, I felt confident they’d understand. One of the staffers said: Are we doing this? Meg and I both said: Yes. There’s no other choice.”
Harry and Meghan finally departed the United Kingdom in 2020.
