They announced that they wanted to offer their child a more peaceful life, away from the royal spotlight, while still supporting Queen Elizabeth II.
“This geographic balance will allow us to raise our son with a respect for the royal tradition into which he was born, while also giving our family the space to focus on the next chapter,” they said.
The announcement shocked many people, and some speculated that Meghan had pushed Harry to leave his family.

Ever since they made that choice, their family life seems to have calmed down. Meghan has said she started writing a diary when she first began dating Prince Harry, and kept it up until not long ago.
If that diary ever got published, it would likely become a best-seller — but it would definitely upset the royal family.

During her time in the royal family, Meghan seems to have made some poor choices. According to insiders, she reportedly shared the news of her pregnancy during Princess Eugenie and Jack Brooksbank’s wedding — which many saw as inappropriate.
It looked like Meghan chose to announce it on her own, but she may have misjudged the situation.
