'Surprised and disappointment.' Those are the words former palace press secretary Dickie Arbiter has used to describe the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's decision to step back from royal duties. 9News
Buckingham Palace later issued a statement in response to the shock announcement, they said they will continue to work with the Duke and Duchess of Sussex over the "complicated issues".
"It is true to say that the Queen and the palace had no idea this was coming which then explains the statement which is pretty hastily written, kind of a one sentence line," she told"That for me smacks of a kind of instant PR reaction, 'we better get something out, but we haven't got anything pre-prepared'.that they were contemplating a move to Canada…and as you know and your viewers will know of them not particularly being happy in their royal role.
"We can trace this back to about six months after they got married in May 2018. There were rumours around tiaras, rows over bridesmaid dresses, rifts between with two brothers. That escalated into negative publicity about baby showers and private jet issues, and let's not even get into Thomas Markle Sr. And then there was the interview with Meghan who said you have to be happy in life.
