Meghan Markle‘s entry into the royal family was indeed a significant event, but her and Prince Harry‘s “Megxit,” was equally controversial. In the past, the Duke discovered an unsettling truth. Prince William’s office had affixed his name to a statement without his knowledge or consent. More so, this ultimately marked the beginning of their departure from the royal family. This process was far from a walk in the park for the Duke of Sussex, as it resulted in the loss of his patronages.
