Never mind World War Three. How about the implosion of the world’s most glamorous couple? Welcome to Megxit.
Harry
and Meghan think they’re going to escape press intrusion and live a
more meaningful life by ‘stepping back’ from the British royal family,
but they’re in for a nasty surprise.
Their lives are meaningful now
because they are integral to the royal family’s rebranding for the 21st
century. Any reduction in their royal-ness reduces them to second-tier
celebrities, and any missteps in that crowded second-tier lead downwards
to tabloid hell, which is as meaningless as life gets.
And
while it’s true that the press pursue Harry and Meghan because they’re
glamorous young royals, the near-sacred status of royalty is precisely
what protects them against unlimited press intrusion.
"The only quick way out of a royal family is via the guillotine"
