The British royal family is in shock. Queen Elizabeth’s grandson Prince Harry has
decided to leave the UK and walk away from the royal family. Harry and his wife will
move to Canada. They both want a life away from the media in the UK. Harry's mother,
Diana, Princess of Wales, died because paparazzi photographers chased the car she was
in. Harry thinks journalists might affect his wife and baby son and he doesn’t want
journalists to affect their life. Harry told the world about his decision on social media, on
Instagram. He wrote on Instagram: "We intend to step back as 'senior' members of the
Royal Family." He added that living in Canada would provide his family, "with the space
to focus on the next chapter".
The UK media reported the Queen was not happy with Harry's decision. The Queen,
Harry's father Prince Charles and brother Prince William talked to Harry about his future.
Charles might cut off money to his son. Harry and Meghan have titles as members of the
royal family. They say that Harry and Meghan may lose their titles. Reporters say they
hope to make money from their fame. People in the UK divided their opinion. Some say
Harry is a traitor; others support Harry and say the media was racist towards Meghan.
London's museum Madame Tussauds has removed Meghan and Harry from its display.
Can anybody predict Harry’s future?
