You’ll read a lot about Harry and Meghan scaling down their public duties in the next few days. News reporters will stand in front of Buckingham Palace and dramatically emphasize words like ‘unprecedented’ and ‘crisis,’ as though the whole Royal institution is on the brink of collapse. But one view keeps being bandied about as if it’s a fact; Meghan is to blame.
So allow me, an average, middle-aged Englishman, to offer my humble opinion on the situation.
I was one of the hundreds of thousands of people who lined the streets of London to pay their respects to Princess Diana after her tragic death. As I watched the funeral procession pass in front of me, I wondered whether the two young boys walking behind the coffin felt our presence as a comfort or as an intrusion.
Something shifted in Britain that day. Those who watched from the streets of London, and millions who watched on their TV at home, made an unspoken promise to look out for those kids. We felt a shared sense of duty to protect them.
In the years following, a definite line appeared between them and the rest of the Royal Family. The Queen and Prince Charles are revered and respected, but William and Harry are loved.
In the immediate aftermath of Diana’s death, the press stood down and mostly respected the boy’s privacy. Though the tabloid thirst for stories about them didn’t abate, the articles took a kinder and gentler approach. But as the years passed a new breed of journalist came of age, young writers who understood social media and were willing to forget the past to grab short, attention-seeking headlines – no matter the cost.
Seemingly overnight, the two young princes became fair game.
Much of Harry ‘s work and achievements has been overshadowed by rumors or tabloid gossip about his private life. So I’d like to offer a brief reminder of how he actually represented the UK in his role — as a member of the Royal family and as a Brit.
Charity
Sentebale is among the many charities and patronages to which Harry is committed. He co-founded the charity in 2006 to help orphans in Lesotho, in southern Africa. Having visited the small African nation after completing his education, he was moved by the plight of children orphaned by the AIDS pandemic, which has devastated the country. Together with Lesotho’s Prince Seeiso, he set up Sentebale to offer long-term support to community organisations working with children and young people, and in particular those working with orphans.
Army
Prince Harry served in the British Army for ten years, rising to the rank of Captain and undertaking two tours of Afghanistan.
Invictus Games
In 2014, Prince Harry founded the Invictus Games, an international event that used the power of sport to inspire recovery, support rehabilitation, and generate a wider understanding and respect for wounded, injured and sick servicemen and women.
Wildlife conservation
On leaving the Army in 2015, he spent time working — actually working, not just posing for cameras — on a number of wildlife conservation projects in Namibia, Tanzania, South Africa, and Botswana.
Ending the stigma of HIV/AIDS
Harry continued his mother’s work of raising awareness and ending the stigma of HIV by being tested, and encouraging others to do the same.
Halo
Harry also has honored his mother’s legacy by supporting the Halo Trust, an organization dedicated to clearing landmines in war torn countries.
Supporting the LGBT community
After years of supporting charities and foundations that support LGBT youth, he took to social media to once again publicly stand with the community for Pride month.
Royal duties
For as long as I can remember people have cried out for a modern monarchy. Many wanted them to be more accessible, down to earth, and human. And going against royal protocol, the ginger prince delivered.
Watch:
Harry is a man who has had a pillow of duty held over his face since the day he was born. As the years have passed, more and more pressure has been applied to the point that it’s clear he was beginning to suffocate. The warning signs were there, but they were ignored.

Prince Harry speaks candidly about mental health during his visit to Australia.
"Asking for help was one of the best decisions that I ever made."#Bravopic.twitter.com/L0eK3rg3ta
— Greg Hogben (@MyDaughtersArmy) October 17, 2018
So Harry has decided, for the good his family and himself, to take a step back from being a Senior Royal – effectively removing the suffocating pillow of duty from his face.
The press doesn’t believe an educated 35 year-old man would make that choice. They don’t believe him when he says he’s ‘not going to be bullied into the game that killed my mother.’ They don’t believe that the relentless attacks on his wife and family could have any part of his decision.
So, of course, they have blamed Meghan.
Countless articles accuse her of being conniving, manipulative and self-serving. TV pundits like Piers Morgan lose their shit over Meghan’s ‘influence’ on Harry. Social commentators suddenly have become royal experts overnight and cry out that Meghan will bring Harry down.
But in reality, it’s all bullshit.
In reality, Meghan saved Harry.
If you take a step back and consider the pressure this man has been under all his life, the personal tragedy he has dealt with, and the enormous microscope he’s lived under through no fault of his own it’s no wonder he has struggled with mental health. He was born into this drama, he didn’t ask for it. But Meghan has done what so many haven’t. She has allowed Harry to be Harry – and supported and stood by him all the way. And for that, we should be thankful.
So maybe we still have a chance to keep our unspoken promise to the boy following the coffin. However you feel about the monarchy, he’s a man who has done great things with the mantle thrust upon him. Instead of making things even more difficult for him, we can send him and his family on their journey with the love, support, and respect they so richly deserve.

Lovely and very well written
Wellsaid
Beautifully and thoughtfully written! I love the Sussexes! Both work for the good of all people!
Remarkable! Its really amazing article, I have got much clear idea regarding from this article.
Thank, this is a beautiful tribute.
Thank you, this is a beautiful tribute.
Thank you. So very well written. It totally agree, a million percent. It’s very easy to judge when you haven’t walked in their shoes, or live their life. I applaud Harry in protecting his family, that’s what more important to him. He’s still being a royal but just doing it elsewhere. He’s done so much good, not necessarily because he has to, but because he wants to, that’s his nature. Hope he finds the Peace in Canada, he so badly wants and DESERVES.
I agree with you. People see what they want to see. They judge mercilessly, and don’t care who they hurt in the process. If this is the choice that a Husband makes for his Family, then let him. He was witness to what happened to his beautiful Mother, irrespective of how young he was.
Wow! Thank you! May your voice silence the haters!
Thank you for highlighting Harry’s work. May he live his as he chooses too
This is a wonderfully nuanced piece.
Beautiful..LOVE & SUPPORT FOR THE SUSSEXES 100%
Thank you for your well expressed comments for which I have no argument. The only comment I would make is that I was disappointed the announcement reached the press, before a respectful discussion with Her Majesty. In making the decision not to advise her first was the only item of poor judgement and disrespect made. Second, taking for granted a country would be willing to take on the security cost of Harry, Megan and Archie is a grave error of judgement. I am sure this will be worked out during the negotiations. Harry has been loved worldwide, but a young man of great personal wealth, may find other countries will expect him to pay his own way, as the taxpayers do. Megan is also a woman of wealth, and, again, as a successful actor, will be expected to pay her own taxes. She may find some differences in her income when it isn’t protected by international agreements for actors, but expected to work and pay taxes as all people of the country they live. These are musings of the transition. I have no argument if they want a lesser or no role in the “Firm”, but they will be required to accept the everyday life of a wealthy couple living in any country. I wish them well and every success in their career.
I wish them my very best. Not being in the U.K. I did not see the harassment to which you refer. I saw only the acceptance and the great job they were doing in the United Kingdom and Internationally. I would not also leave Meghan as “innocent” in this departure, as there may have been some self interest included from her as well. As we know, it is not easy joining the Firms and especially the “courtiers” who run the organization.
This article hits the nail on the head. Prince Harry’s decision was not in any way meant to be disrespectful to the Queen or his other relatives, but as he said, he now has a family to protect as well as to avoid subjecting them to the life that resulted in his beloved mother’s death. He is merely fulfilling his role as a father and a husband and that is to look after his family’s well being and if that means stepping away from his former life, then so be it. There’s more to life for him than just the attention and glamour of being royal. Whether he’s royal or not he’s first and foremost a man with a wife and child to care and provide for and protect.
I’m impressed with this writing. It’s been the only positive recording Harry and Megan. It was refreshing and motivating! keep up the good news!
Heartfelt thankyou for all of this real review of Harry’s contributution so far.. to humanity world wide.
Typical bleeding heart article. This guy Harry iappears every bit the weirdo his unbalanced mother was. An elite with postuting affectations pandering to the so-called common follk. He and his actress wife seem discontented in their role as lesser-light royalty and determined to upstage their higher ranked relatives whenever the opportunity presents itself. A cliue to this couples’ tasteless mentality is in the naming of their child. With all due respect to those who have been named Archibald and are called Archie, the giving of such a name to the son of a Prince is incongrous to say the least. Archie Windsor? Give me a break!
Hollywood is probably a better fit for them than as members of the Royal Family.
I love the couple naturally
I have to agree about the name of the child. This is obviously NOT the choice of Harry,and I would imagine the Queen would have shown surprise if not horror at the thought of * Archie Harrison Mountbatten-Windsor.* However, now that they have departed as Royals, I suppose it doesn’t matter any more.
Bill Perkins
You sir are a troll or an ass. Possibly both.
God bless you Prince Harry. Go live life and raise your child. You will be just fine. Lov Mary.
I also watched the funeral and those young boys walk behind the coffin and have heard Harry say in an interview that no child should have been asked to do that. This is one of the best articles I have ever read that gives the perspective of what Harry has accomplished in his life and to also have to he to be bullied by the media while your doing it. And if I was Meghan I won’t want to live where I am attacked and lied about everyday. The press should be held accountable and the laws about what they can print should be changed. I have said to myself a few times in the last week, I hope Harry has made the right choice but after reading this I have faith that he has. Would be nice if the speculation would stop but I believe Harry and Meghan will do great things. And I would like to say, Welcome to Canada and God Bless them.
Well said. This is exactly how I feel to xx
Everything I would love to have said myself THANK YOU for putting into words my thoughts.
Those of us from Canada will do our best to help them find a place of peace, so they can find healing and balance in their future.
Thank you for this article -WELL SAID. I wish Meghan and Harry all the best that life has to offer. Good for them to take this stand.
Your article is so spot on! It should be front page of every tabloid magazine (oops! They only print trash) they keep it alive because they need ‘threads’ week in week out.
This is a wonderful tribute and I for one give you many thanks for it.I hope people like Piers Morgan read it. Although I am sure he would still think he is right. His kind always do.
So well written
Necessary too. I’m.sure therenhave been manyvtrars from.Meghan behind closed doors. Neither of them.deserve the vitriol that has been poured on them..The tabloid press has so.much to answer for. They effectively murdered his.mother. I dont blame him.one but and I’ll bet the Queen is right behind him too
This was beautiful!
This was a wonderful article and so true!
Thank you for reminding us all that Harry and Meghan are two human beings who want to have a life together, build a family and fulfill their purpose. Leave them alone. They are both huge contributors to the world so let them get on with it.❤
I totally agree. Leave them alone and let them live their life.
I adore them.
BEAUTIFUL WRITE UP
Well said! Thank you – nice to read a truthful, supportive piece on Harry an Megan! I hope the British are listening to ou!
Thank you so much for this article. I was inspired before, now I am invigorated.
Well done sir , well done
PI am so glad to read your article. I just can’t believe all he negative press about the Duchess of Susshe is the very best thing that Prince Harry could have come across. He has given his whole life, his precious mother and lots of other things we don’t even know about to serve his Grandmother and the Commonwealth….let them be them, do what they want to do, go where they want to go and be the kind, generous people they have shown us they are.
I completely support these two and strongly feel that their being together will Be Blessed as they venture on….:-)
Wow, what an incredible article. Thanks for sharing your opinion. It offered much needed perspective on all that the prince has been through and accomplished.
Thank you , Thank you , Thank you!!….Hopefully , reading this will bring about compassion & understanding for the ” lifesaving” decision this couple made.
At last some sense 💜
I am CANADIAN, I agree with every word in this article.thankyou for your bravery at stating the obvious.
Thank you. Just THANK YOU. These helpful words and thoughts need to be shared.
Beautiful story. Thank you for covering this with honesty and integrity. I wish them both all the happiness and support that their choices will bring them. Bravo to the Sussexes 🌹
I like your insight…beautiful piece of article with great highlights…
I totally agree with you!! We can’t see into the corners of his mind. We can’t possibly know what he has gone through so leave Harry and his wife alone. For all those thousands of people who said they loved Diana, lets pass some of that love on to her son because she’s gone and doesn’t really need it but her son Harry and his wife are still here and right now could do with your love and support.
I believe this beautiful couple should be to live life as they wish to
And if it means stepping back a bit from Royal responsibilities then so be it
I am sure they will go through life helping each other but still maintain a helping hand to their charities
Terrific article… I agree 100%…
First of all, thank you for writing this article – it is very well delivered.
I hope and pray William as Harry’s only brother will grow up and humbly accept his amazing brother’s amazing works – Harry together with his beautiful wife are working, NOT posing.
Behind a great man is a great wife!
Very well done for Harry to become a great man, husband and father!!! Keep trusting God, keep on going and keep winning… “With God, anything is possible, God’s love will shine through you”
Every blessings,
Gloria
I have to point out that you have become confused, William is older than Harry and second in line to the throne.
Thank God William has accepted his role with Kate as future queen. If Harry had been born first, there would have been another abdication as with Edward and Mrs Simpson.
It is William and Kate who have shown the perfect example of hereditary obligation
Thank you for the thoughtful commentary. As the Twitter #megxit feed grows angrier, I am more convinced that Harry and Meghan are doing the right thing.
Very well written. God bless you and Harry and Meghan !!!
Thank you for this article!! Why do people have such a problem with them wanting a different life, away from the press,? They should be able to live the life they choose!! On top of that it’s nobody’s business anyway!! I live in Canada and we’re happy to let them live their life in peace and relative privacy. There will be the press here to deal with too but not as intense as in Britain and Europe.
Absolutely brilliant article. Thats closer to the truth
May Almighty God Richly Bless You for Being the Voice of Reason in These Horrendously Inhuman Attacks on Harry & Megan.
I have endeavoured to circulate this article as widely as possible because this side of the story truly needs to be heard. Scholastica Sylvan Kimaryo. Tanzania 🇹🇿 🇹🇿 🇹🇿🇹🇿!!!
Thanks very much for pulling this profile together. I felt the same way watching Diana’s boys at her funeral, and I think you are right about this being a chance to keep that promise. Welcome to Canada Harry!
Great to know that while majority are overdoing themselves demonising a young couple and family, there are true feeling souls who acknowledge the naked truth– that the couple who have gone an extra mile in service of humanity.Harry embraced all human beings irrespective of colour long before he met Mergan. *He doesn’t need gloves to shake hands with the sick and underprivileged*. Someone called him a Superstar ***, for want of a better word. Harry is much more than that, he is a true citzen of world. And fate has brought him a soul-mate for real. They are not perfect, like all of us humans. And why should they be? Despite,and in spite of all limitations common to all humans, they have and are doing their best at whatever requires their attention. How many are doing their bit on this planet, over and beyond “self-service i.e.to me, myself, and I only”? If only it was possible to see the truth and tell the truth and nothing but the truth, the world would be a better place despite, all the binary and polar oppositions that must inevitably exist among the human race.
Even as many hate them, there are millions worldwide who see them for who they really are: ideal citzens of our common world. Unfortunately, there are even greater majority who may not communicate their views in the many contexts , languages etc. BUT if all who care about them had they capacity to communicate to a central space, that space would be flooded.
Thank you for publishing this insight.
As a Canadian, I welcome Harry and Meghan. I pray that they find the safe haven that they are looking for here with no fuss and muss.
Thank you so much for this beautiful article. I remember and stand with Prince Harry! I adored Princess Diana and felt for her boys. Still so sad. I lost a sister in 1995 to car accident She left behind her two boys. Still breaks my ❤️
Thank you for writing this. I truly hope that they can find some peace and the right to have a life.
I agree, why don’t we see more constructive journalism like this.
Thank you
this so desperately needed saying.
These two fine people deserve their peace and happiness.
Thank you. A beautiful article which speaks to the truth of who Harry is. He brought much needed freshness to the Royal family and his heart is huge just like his beautiful mothers. Harry does not measure people by the colour of their skins. He is to mind a true humanitarian. To loose a parent at such a young is terrible beyond words. Nevertheless, Harry has grown into a man that I have no doubt, his mother would have simply adored and be totally proud of. I wish him and Megan a long, healthy, loving and fulfilled marriage. Hoping for some more gorgeous offsprings. And wishing them all the very best in their endeavours and their determination to do their bit to see more caring societies around the world. This young family must be allowed to live their lives in peace.
I hope they are happy in their new roles. I’m sure the cameras clicking & camera flashes will be more bearable when he’s attending the glitzy stuff ahead of them.
Nobody is saying he hasn’t done good work, the problem
m is that they have disrespected the Queen several times. people are angry because they don’t seem to mind the exploitation of the royal name for their endeavours, which includes their charity work. Why should we trust what they say when they have been caught lieing and being deceitful.
.
No, Meghan isn’t the cause but she is the only change in his life & look at how he has made a 360 degree turn. He looks miserable ever since he got married. . He’s not the same Harry that we fell in love with. Even Military personnel are disgusted by what he has done. I just hope that his life will be fulfilled in Canada & the USA, maybe the clicks & flashes won’t take him back to being a 12 year old again, because he’s gonna have to cope as a celebrity. Also when they have completely removed themselves from royalty, should they be able to usr the sussexroyal logo, don’t seem right to me.
I also hope that they will reimburse the 2.4 million for renovations to frogmore cottage only seems fair they pay the taxpayer back.
I truly think Diana would be slightly disappointed in her youngest son.
Good luck to them. I hope they will be happy in their future endeavours..
GOD SAVE THE QUEEN.

Your cynical, insensitive, inaccurate response is both distasteful and delusional. You and people like you who disparage these generous, hard -working philanthropists left because of you. What have you done to improve mankind? Did you serve in ground combat for your country? Did you do work for the UN, World Vision? Did you use your personal time and money to do work in Africa, India, and elsewhere? Did you personally start Sentibale as a teenager. Or, the international Invictus games which the President, Vice President, former President of the U.S. and their wives who co-sponsored and applauded. Did you make trips to war zones for the USO. This is just a partial list. And, finally sir/madam, l see a shortcoming on your part.
Eloquent and on target… Thank you for putting what many of us are thinking into words.
What a beautiful article! Well said. thank you frcwriginv this.
I couldn’t said it any better. Thank you.
Thank you for that article. The world could use more people who show your compassion. As a Canadian I have watched Harry grow up. I am a mother and Grandmother and my eyes can still fill with tears when I see the image of both Harry and William walking behind their Mom’s coffin. Loosing a parent, especially your Mom changes everything about who you are or might have been. He’s done her proud. I hope we in Canada can help give Meghan and Harry a safe place to live and raise their family. He’s done is duty and I’m sure will continue to support the causes he in passionate about. Again, thank you . Judy Jones
Thank you for presenting a balanced and true account Harry and Megan have shown so much courage. They deserve recognition and peace.
fuck the sponging parasites…..good riddence
Thank yyou for thе auspicious writeup. Ιt in act
wass a amusement acxount it. Look advanced tо mօre aԁded agreeable frоm yօu!
Ᏼy the wаy, һow can we communicate?
Fantastic and so true.
❤️… the truth is lovely…
Beautifully said.
There may be a few Canadians who are grumblers but trust me, most of us feel honoured that Harry chose Canada as a safe place for his family. From the Scottish Clearance to the Underground Railroad to more recent immigrants escaping genocide and persecution, our country has a history of sheltering, nurturing and benefitting from the enriched society we’ve become because of it.
Well said, hopefully well heard from the British press and all that criticize.
So maybe we still have a chance to keep our unspoken promise to the boy following the coffin. However you feel about the monarchy, he’s a man who has done great things with the mantle thrust upon him. Instead of making things even more difficult for him, we can send him and his family on their journey with the love, support, and respect they so richly deserve.
Wow. This is a brilliant synopsis. I personally am sick and tired of all the negativity surrounding their decision. I will admit, I was a little saddened at first, but fully comprehend their need for some privacy. I think they are a wonderful couple who love each other deeply and will do amazingly well in their future endeavours. The bonus is that they get to spend more time with their beautiful son and each other.
Well done,
I don’t follow the Royals and seldom open any posts about them but for some reason this caught my eye and I’m glad it did. What an amazing human being Harry is. I’m sure his Mom is smiling down on him and guiding him.
Nice article, Thank you.
I can’t efen begin to understand the stress and pressure you and your brother have been through.I did have a nervous breakdown at 30 ,I kept so much inside,the horror of things I went through but that no one talked about.
It caught up to me.I got great help thank you Lord.So I can’t relate in mental illness that way.
Harry you have a Beautful patner who knows how damaging this can be,you now have a chance to still do some duties but live a life where you can continue your mothers work,whom l adored and still do above.She is also
Helping you in this journey.Take care of you and your family,that’s comes first.
William and Kate have accepted their part or Royality and look like they enjoy it and one day take over.
This change is long over due.Know we are with you’s and just want you’s to be happy.
WOW. I believe Canada is the place for Harry and his family can have peace, privacy but also community. 💕🙏
The media is the worst. When there is no truth they make stories out of lies. The checkouts in every store display the lies on the front page I don’t believe any of them when it come to stories about Harry and his family. I say leave him alone and when he wants us to know what is going on he will send out a press release to a trusted media outlet. If there are any that is.
Thank you, thank you, thank you! A well read, well researched and truthful blog about this whole disgusting mess. These are things that Harry has personally said. Not a “source”. Not an “insider’. Not a “palace spokesperson”. I wish that the media published this kind of commenting, instead of the trash that they spew out. Well done you. 🙂
Bravo. Well stated.
Amazing and well put.God bless Harry,Megan & Archie
Fantastic and true. Welcome to Canada.
WOW what an incredible, enlightening story that really should get world wide recognition. I’ve felt this way from the start. Thanks for articulating my views.
I wouldn’t want to be continuously under the spotlight forever either, never no pravitcy. Everyone in the palace watching everything your every move. You have to squeeze your butt cheeks in so tight not to poot! Actually your life are is prison. Personal privacy, freedom, and happinessis something to be cherish. Bless them on their new journey!
Amen 🙌
thank you! beautiful written! greets from the Netherlands.
love this article, this man has been through so much since a small boy, now it is time for him to blossom the way he choses
Well said! Absolutely applauds all around for Prince Harry. He deserves so much more than what he’s getting. You really can’t wait for others to do what’s right for you. Their self interest always gets in the way first. A real man protects his family first. He’s never run from hard. I’m sure he had to know that marrying a woman of color would be hard. But he didn’t run. He’s standing up. BRAVO!!
What A beautiful tribute to Harry…I wish him and Megan and there child the best of luck and good for you for making a decision for you and your family for love and a healthy life together
Spot on! Thank you SO much for writing this! I hope it goes viral. We’re ready to welcome this extraordinary young family to Canada! And don’t worry, we will keep your promise.
Good for you,Harry and bravo for Megan to support you…go have a life with your family,that you deserve…I,m very proud of the man that you,’ve become…and I know that you mom would be so proud of you
Beautiful story. I hold Harry and Megan in highest esteem. Harry is a “KING” amongst men. I wish Harry and Megan the best life they can possibly have. They belong together; a beautiful and loving couple. I wish them the happy, full-life they deserve and look forward to.
I spent a few hours with his family the summer before Diana died…Sara and Andrew’s daughters were there…It was Sara’s home. We swam in the pool with a 6ft inflatable dolphin..played doubles badmitten and ate some bbq bangers…Harry was 12..Diana was barefoot and in cutoffs and a t shirt…normal family Sunday…she was so down to earth…after reading this article I fully understand his position..I remember the British press is brutal …they make our American tabloids look tame….good on ya mate…go have a life out of the spotlight..GREAT article …thank you Greg! Shared…
I’m supremely embarassed at the air head comments some Canadians are making over Harry and Meghans plans to make Canada their part time home. I welcome them with open arms. Few Canadians have accomplished what they have in their short lives
Well said
Very thoughtful and loving letter – and needs to be paid attention to.
So well said and as a Canadian we welcome them to Canada and hope we treat them the way they deserve.
‘the fault in our stars’
Coundn’t have said it any better….Thanks
Very well said. I hope Harry Specially can find some peace and happiness with his wife and baby. He is truly a great man in our modern society.
Stop suffocating him by incessantly treating him like a child. He’s a grown man. Let him BE a man…
Ann, I concur! . Look at the example shown by his brother William, who was also traumatised by his mother’s death, .I think people tend to forget this fact!. William and his wife Kate have embraced their hereditary obligation and are doing a wonderful job in their support of the Queen and country
Amber
You missed the entire reason for and point of this positive article.
Both boys were hurt by their mothers death but Harry was traumatized due to his sensitive nature and younger age. Look at how small he was. Plus, he was raised as “the spare”. How would you like that? I’m offended by your comment and lack of empathy. Keep your aristocratic, bloated, anachronistic, colonists. Glad we parted ways in 1776. Tho, still imperfect too.
Harry is doing with his life exactly what his mother should have done so many years ago! I remember the promises and the guilt on his fathers face. God knows Diana wasn’t perfect but that is why people identified with her; she was real.
William has found his path in life with a perfect English Rose and whom also seems to have saved William. Harry found Meghan and yes she did save Harry and wasn’t that his and her lucky day?
Isn’t this what we all wanted back on September 6th 1997, watching their mothers funeral. I am a Canadian not a Brit but I feel like a mother, a grandmother and that they belong to us as well.
Harry is doing with his life exactly what his mother should have done so many years ago! Maybe she would still be alive? I also remember the promises the world made that day of the funeral to see William and Harry protected from the press and to be given privacy they so deserved.

I am a Canadian not a Brit but I feel as a mother, and a grandmother and that we want both these young men to find the happiness their mother never did.
Very thoughtfully written, with point after point of all the goodness in that young man, Prince Harry! I have to believe there are many, many people who continue to love, admire & respect him & wish him the very best! He deserves to enjoy being a newlywed & new Daddy without judgement, gossip & interference! I’m proud of him!
They want to move in Canada,well they can pay for all costs. We are NOT gonna help them. They are rich,they can get a job just like the others.
Excellent beat ! I wish to apprentice while you amend your
website, how can i subscribe for a blog site? The account aided me a acceptable deal.
I had been a little bit acquainted of this
your broadcast offered bright clear concept
Thank you for correcting people’s’ Royal bashing of Harry and Meghan. A few more honest reporters need to voice the truth of this wonderful couple. I loath hearing all negativity of them, particularly Meghan, particularly all the trite driven by Piers Morgan. He comes across as a jealous, immature child.
Harry and Meghan need to be able to live their lives in safety, supporting charities of their choice, and they deserve to be happy.
Reporters need to cut the false reporting which exacerbates the Royal bashing. They deserve kindness, not judgment and hate.
Thank you for putting the story straight.
He is a humanitarian, a kind soul and a good father, husband and family man. His family and the world should respect his wishes.
BEAUTIFUL ARTICLE WELL WRITTEN THANK YOU FOR THIS AWESOME REPORT !! This young man is a carbon copy of his mothers love for humanity and life above all else. Like his mother he buried himself in his work towards helping others man and beast wherever opportunity presented itself.No one will ever know what happened to my favorite Princess when she had to live behind those closed doors but the Boys would have known and I believe that half that story has never been told. GOSSIP is a destructive thing – as whatever affected his wife would also affect him and his young son..LOVE it or LEAVE it! He was willing to swim upstream against the tides that would either drown him & his wife and child or propel him to his new life, leaving the comfort zone of luxury to chart his own course. You did what you had to do to protect your Family & Meghan had a life before you and so what if she CHOOSES to continue to fulfill it. She tried her best to fit in, to support & walk by your side & Your support of her is so proof of how much you love her and will go to the ends of the earth to protect her if you must! I pray that the Paparazzi will remember forever how they bullied and badgered & contributed to murder your mother and will now leave you in peace Why take the disrespect and flack and BULLYING towards your household. You were mentally affected as a child by all the naysayings against your mother and I see the determination to protect your own child from the same was inevitable. The People who have became cruel towards you and your wife with their voices, The Tabloids that refused to be silenced have pushed you to this. Had they left you and your family alone I know that you would have stayed. Now that’s a MAN not a WIMPY ROYAL KID! Bravo Harry!! May God preserve you and your family, may you dare to dream and see the dream realised as you trust God to defend you. Change can be challenging but can also open the doors to greater opportunities to continue to fulfill your purpose as a Man first and as a Royal next. March on good Soldier I salute you having read this article and learnt more about you. May you stay close to God who will reward you for every good that you have done and will continue to do I’m sure…you have you mothers blood running through your veins. Peace to you and your family!
What a load of fairy shit. Oh not Harry’s achievements or charity work, no one can take that away from him, the Meghan view is bullshit. She is not in this relationship for Harry or Harry’s well-being, she is in it for what she can get for her self, she is making Harry’s mental health issue worse.
And what is she gaining apart from constant abuse? She’s a mother and a wife and is trying to do the best for her family. I, for one, would do the same. Imagine if you and your family received the amount of thrashing they have gotten? Would you not want to flee from it? They are still working between countries so not completely abandoning the Royal Family. What’s the problem??
Ozzy
You are WRONG, WRONG, WRONG. I live in Meghan’s U.S. hometown, Windsor Hills. You know NOTHING about her. Your prejudices and tabloid information have created a misinformed idiot.
Well written and so very true. Please leave them alone. Harry wants to have a family life , let home have it.
thank you. Too often, people in the public eye, can’t be who they want to be. Thank you for reminding everyone that what they do with their lives matters and how they live their lives aren’t are not up to the critics.
Loved your Article and we have all forgotten what Harry and William along with their Wives have done for the Royal Family, UK, and the Commonwealth. I welcome them to Canada with open arms. I hope that things can get better and that their departure from Royal Duties is a short one and that it can be corrected during their absence and that they can return back into their Royal Duties in the future.
Brilliantly voiced. I hope Harry and Meghan get to read this! I truly believe he is saving his family from the fate of his much loved Mother as well as his mental health. I too watched as he walked with Princess Diana and knew then this would affect him forever.
Stay strong and true Harry! Xx
Thank you for seeing and believing in Harry and Megan.
I was on holiday in America the day Princess Diana left this world.
What a sad day that was for her boys.
Your article is awesome. Thank you for seeing what others see.
May you continue seeing good in people it is so refreshing.

Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. You have said it all and that is the honest truth without a media hype.magsmagazine.ca
Well said, facts, thank goodness someone tells the truth amongst the rubbish that gets written and spoken by the media and public also.
Much love to a br azve Prince Harry and Duchess for taking control of their own destiny. Good luck and good fortune to them in their future endeavours.
Very well written, I enjoyed reading the article. Harry has every right to protect his family as he sees fit as any of us would. Leave this man and his family to get on with their lives. All the best for the future Harry & Meghan and little Archie.
THANK YOU for giving voice to our feelings of support and love for Harry and Maghan. I wish they would read this too and take heart from ALL the support and love for them which the normal media does not reflect.
When Kate and William married that helped. Harry found he had a woman, outside his royal birth to lean on, learn from and help him transition to a degree. But Meghan has been The Real Deal, the nudge, the one he needed to carry forward with. A friend, lover, confidant … simply a person (woman) at his side no matter what. When he found her he went through the final growing stage of boy to man and he’s the better for it … a really lovely person with a wonderful woman and a gorgeous child to claim as his own family unit. Perfect.
Thank you for sharing your fabulous article above, I loved reading it all and watching the video clips. I agree with your positive take on the boy, the young man, and the person he is today. It’s been a fascinating watch with an excellent outcome.
Best to you and to them. Hope to read more here as time progresses and there is more wonderful input about him and his family but with far less, totally over the top, ridiculous and hurtful tabloid style media intrusion constantly on them.
Great article. Wish we had more journalists like you in our time. Journalists who will not only focus on the negative but celebrate the good in people through each and every story they write. I personally love the couple. Meghan is a very strong and courageous woman. Prince Harry is truly blessed with an amazing helpmate. I wish them well in their new journey
God bless them,we love them so much!
What a wonderful article. Thank you!

This is well said and done.
Thanks for this legitimate, fair article on Prince Harry. Well written and researched with facts and data.
Unfortunately, the few negative commenters set me off because they legitimize the reasons the Sussexes left. I made my comments back to them and don’t care if they’re posted. I just needed to let them know how H + M supporters feel. I live in Meghan’s former U.S. neighborhood, just a mile from her Mom. I don’t know her personally but know of several who did. It breaks my heart to hear such ugly comments about these two beautiful people who fell in love and came together to “change the world”. And, considering its current state, they have plenty of work to do. I wish the negative, cynics would spend more time and attention on Harry’s uncle.
