Harry and Meghan announce to step back from their duties

The supposed rift began back in January 2020 when Prince Harry and Meghan Markle announced their decision to step back from their royal duties. This created quite the stir online as celebrities and users online took differing opinions. While some applauded the pair for being courageous, others belittled their decision.

The news absolutely hurt Prince William, Harry’s brother. It felt like a slap to his face, considering how he had acted as a mentor to his younger brother. Reports also mentioned that the Queen was furious and urged the brothers to keep a united front amidst everything.

In March 2020, the pair attended their final royal engagement for the annual Commonwealth Day service in Westminster Abbey. Tension was at an all-time high between the brothers and the wives. Body language experts said that Harry’s folded hands spoke of utmost unease. Simultaneously, Kate did not acknowledge Meghan and Harry despite sitting next to them.

In August 2020, the rift got messier when Finding Freedom was released. New details about the couple’s engagement and royal lives emerged, as well as the decision to leave, which left everyone shocked. The tension between the brothers got even worse after this bombshell release.
