As Queen Elizabeth plans to ask Meghan and Harry to relinquish their patronage as royals, voices were raised to express surprise. Indeed, the members of the National Theater were hesitant about the handover desired by the Queen.
Queen Elizabeth II did not expect this sling. A few days ago, after the announcement of Meghan Markle’s second pregnancy and the exclusive interview with her husband Harry that will be broadcast on CBS on March 7, Her Majesty made a big decision. She intends to ask Sussex to relinquish all the patronage they have been providing as representatives of the Royal Family in the coming weeks.
According to their relatives, as reported by our sources, Archie’s parents are resigned to losing patronage. Meanwhile, the queen is holding meetings with the royal assistants to determine who will take Meghan and Harry’s patronage.
However, one patronage raises the question, the National Theater, offered to the actress in 2019 and considered a gesture of support and affection from Elizabeth II who had been the godmother for 45 years. It is rumoured that Charles and Camila could inherit it, but the members of the establishment are divided on the subject.
The members of the organization’s board of directors cannot agree on the future of this patronage. “There was great excitement when Meghan succeeded the queen, but her lack of action for the theater and the industry as a whole while the health crisis has hurt us is saddening,” a source told the English site.
Who to take over from Meghan and Harry?
It is before March 31 that these problems concerning patronage will be settled, assures a royal source. A symbol since it will mark the first anniversary of Megxit. It is thus Prince William who should inherit the honorary military appointments. Princess Anne was also mentioned. The one whose bare feet have made people gossip on social networks will also be obliged to leave the patronage of the Rugby Football Union and the Rugby Football League.
The affiliations of the couple now living in Santa Barbara with Commonwealth organizations would also be threatened. However, Sussex would have to retain some private sponsorships such as the Invictus Games, WellChild and Sentebale for Harry or Mayhew and Smart Works for Meghan.
