Queen Elizabeth agreed on the wish of her grandson Prince Harry and his wife Meghan for more independent future, according to Reuters.
A final decision on the future of the couple, officially the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, will be determined in days, she said in a statement.
“My family and I are entirely supportive of Harry and Meghan’s desire to create a new life as a young family,” Elizabeth said.
“Although we would have preferred them to remain full-time working members of the Royal Family, we respect and understand their wish to live a more independent life as a family while remaining a valued part of my family.”
The statement was highly unusual both in its informal tone and its personal nature, addressing the couple by name rather than by their titles.
Harry and Meghan say they want a “progressive” new role for themselves and financial independence. As one of the world’s most glamorous couples, they have also made clear that they were struggling with the intense media scrutiny.
