Prince Harry’s royal exit may have been triggered by one rejected plea to Queen Elizabeth II, according to a new account from royal historian Hugo Vickers. The Duke of Sussex reportedly pushed for a “half-in, half-out” role that would allow him and Meghan Markle to remain connected to royal duties while becoming financially independent. However, the proposal was allegedly shut down by the late Queen, leaving Harry with no middle ground before stepping away from royal life in January 2020. As reported by OK!, the couple later cited racism, media pressure, and lack of institutional support as reasons behind their dramatic split from the monarchy.
