That's for Sure


Instead of the Duke and Duchess of Woke, from now on they'll just be Mr. and Mrs. Woke as they "work towards financial independence".   Given he will continue to receive a multi-million dollar allowance from gran and dad, that probably won't be high on his list of accomplishments.

His nickname in the UK, btw, is “thick boy”.  That’s not in reference to his ankles.

An update:
What they mean is ‘We want to use our status to lecture you ignorant plebs on institutional racism, environmental paranoia and other pet causes of the righteous rich — and because we think we can use our status as a soapbox, we’re going to retain as much of it as we can, titles and freebies and security details and exotic foreign holidays on Elton John’s private jet.’ And what that means is this: Harry and Meghan are going to intensify their exposure to the world’s media, but this time without the deference and protection accorded to full-time royals. And how did that turn out for Harry’s mother?
