Queen Elizabeth (93) quoted her grandson Prince Harry (35) on Monday for the crisis meeting. The British royal family had to find a solution to the resignation of Harry and his wife Duchess Meghan (38). After the family reunion, the Queen surprised with an extremely personal statement. She did not address the couple with their official titles as usual, but only called them Harry and Meghan. For this purpose, she placed special emphasis on the word “family” – she mentioned it eight times. But what does the statement actually mean?

The message about the many mentions of “family” seems clear for “Mirror”: “We are united and we will survive.” The Queen seems undeniably torn between her loyalty to her grandson, whom she loves, and the future of the Heir he will leave behind. Nevertheless, she has found a compromise for the moment.

The couple could lose their title
By addressing Harry and Meghan by their first names, they breathe even more personality into the statement, writes «Daily Mail». It is also emphasized that this is both a family trauma and a royal crisis. There is also speculation that the couple may have their title and possibly their HRH status (Note by His / Her Royal Highness) could lose. Insiders point out that they will later be referred to as “Sussexes” in the statement, but admit that “nothing can be ruled out at the present time”.

Financing her lifestyle is still uncertain
The statement also showed that it is currently still uncertain how the couple will finance their lifestyle in the future. The lack of detail speaks for itself, says the British medium. It is predicted that Harry and Meghan will make millions as a global “brand”. But it won’t be cheap to maintain a transatlantic lifestyle for your family with at least two houses. In the statement, the Queen does not consider whether Prince Charles (71) will continue to give his son CHF 2.5 million a year. It also avoids the question of tax-financed security and consular aid. The royals fear that if they ask the taxpayer to checkout, it could devalue their brand.

Harry and Meghan have no intention of returning
Letting Meghan and Harry go is a royal emergency solution, according to the Daily Mail. By moving their son Archie (eight months), their dogs and their household to Canada, Harry and Meghan have already signaled to the Queen that at least in the immediate future there is no intention to return. In this regard, the Queen had little choice. It cannot command them to return – so it might as well surrender to keep the peace while trying to formalize the new agreements.

How it will go on with Harry and Meghan will be shown in the next few days. Until then, the queen wants final decisions on the table. (BSN)
