Elizabeth II, Queen of England, will hold a meeting monday with Prince Harry in an attempt to resolve the crisis caused by the announcement that he and his wife Meghan Markle have decided to leave their duties in royalty. According to the British press, Harry (Duke of Sussex) will meet his grandmother Queen Elizabeth II in the company of his father, Prince Charles (heir to the throne of the United Kingdom), and his brother Prince William (Duke of Cambridge), with whom he has strained relations; this meeting will be held at the Queen’s private residence in Sandringham, eastern England.
Prince Harry and his wife Meghan Markle, the Dukes of Sussex, announce their retirement from the British Royal Family Through a statement they stated: “After many months of reflection and internal discussions, we have chosen to make a transition this year to begin forging a new progressive role within this institution. We intend to step back as members of the Royal Family and work to be financially independent, while fully supporting Her Majesty the Queen. It is with your encouragement, particularly in recent years, that we feel ready to make this adjustment. We now plan to balance our time between the UK and North America, continuing to honor our duty to The Queen, the Commonwealth and our sponsorships. This geographical balance will allow us to raise our child with an appreciation of the real tradition in which he was born, while giving our family the space to focus on the next chapter, including the launch of our new charitable entity. We look forward to sharing the full details of this exciting next step in due course, as we continue to collaborate with Her Majesty the Queen, the Prince of Wales, The Duke of Cambridge and all relevant parties. Until then, accept our sincere thanks for your continued support.” – The Duke and Duchess of Sussex. #PrincipeHarry #MeghanMarkle #DuquesdeSussex #ReinaIsabel #realeza #realeza: AFP

Meghan Markle, who is in Canada, will participate in the meeting through a conference call. According to the Sunday Times, several topics will be addressed such as the amount of the financial allocation that Prince Charles attributes to the marriage of his personal reserve, the royal titles and the scope of the business transactions that Henry and Meghan will be able to undertake. Harry, Meghan and their son, Archie, spent Christmas in Canada and the American schoolman returned to that country this week. They took a long holiday after expressing their displeasure with criticism from the British tabloid press about Meghan Markle’s supposed whims and luxurious lifestyle.
According to the British press, Queen Elizabeth II, 93, was unconsultated and sad. The monarch asked the family to find a “solution” to her grandson’s desire, sixth in the order of succession to the throne, to obtain “financial independence” and live part of the year in North America.The members of the British Royal Family were surprised by Wednesday’s announcement that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex wanted to seek a “new progressive role” and divide their time between Britain and America from the Norte.La Queen’s office issued a brief statement the same afternoon, saying that there were “complicated problems that will take time to resolve.” Harry and Meghan said they intended to continue to “fully support” the queen and collaborate with the royals. They also want to keep their home on the Queen’s estate at Windsor Castle as their British base, while aiming to be financially independent.
