Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle announced on their Instagram that they are stepping down as 'senior' members of the royal family. From now on, they will live in the US and the UK and will also become financially independent.
“This geographical balance will allow us to raise our son with gratitude for the royal tradition into which he was born, and will also give our family the opportunity to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charity. We look forward to sharing all the details of this exciting next step in due time, as we continue to work with Her Majesty The Queen, the Prince of Wales, the Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties.”
It is not specified exactly where in North America the couple plans to live. Some media outlets suggest it could be Canada or Los Angeles, Meghan Markle's hometown.
Earlier, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle registered their trademark “Sussex Royal,” under which they can now release their clothing, postcards and magazines.
