Prince Harry Resigning From The Royal Family And The Problems It Presents For The Line Of Succession

Queen Elizabeth, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry

The Prince Harry and Meghan Markle controversy continues, as the couple have essentially stepped back from being senior royals in the British royal family. It reminds me of the abdication crisis concerning King Edward and his American wife, Wallis Simpson.

Over a year ago I alluded to the similarities cropping up between the Sussexs and King Edward and Wallis Simpson (Prince Harry And Meghan Markle Leaving Kensington Palace For Dinky Cottage Under Rumors Kate Middleton Wants Them Out).

Last month on December 27, 2019, I wrote about King Edward abdicating, as I firmly believed there was trouble brewing regarding Prince Harry and Meghan in that regard (The Queen's Choice Of Photo During Christmas Speech Reveals Where She Wants The Future Of The Monarchy To Go). Now they’ve essentially decided to quit, just like King Edward, who has not gone down in British history in a good way.

While I know some do not want Prince Harry to become king, firmly believing his real dad is James Hewitt, he is still third in line to the throne. Growing up as a Commonwealth citizen (Jamaica) I’d heard and read the term “the heir and the spare” many times regarding Prince Harry and his elder brother Prince William.

If something happens to Prince William (i.e. an accident) and I do not wish him any harm, but look what happened to his amazing mother, the late Prince Diana, the line of succession skips over his underage children, and would go to Prince Harry.

If Prince Harry abdicates his position in the royal family, which is what this is gaining the appearance of regarding where things are headed, who would be next in line. Princess Anne, who has shunned titles for her children? PRINCE ANDREW, who is being called a "pedo" on social networking due to the Jeffrey Epstein scandal?! Oh my word!

If he’s not careful, I predict Prince Harry is going to go broke trying to break away from the royal family. I think he should stay in London, as should Meghan and Archie. Harry, your mum did not put up with your dad's crap for this to happen. Not to mention, Prince Harry has become the People's Prince.
