Harry and Meghan Markle are back for half-in, half-out. Is Charles just going to allow it? This article is not about charity. It is about whether Harry and Meghan can take the deal they were refused and walk it back in through the side door. Look at the sequencing. First, the feeling: they are “excited.” Meghan is “passionate.” She wants to “rekindle” relationships and become involved “in a more meaningful way.” Then the purpose: charity. Old causes. New causes. Smart Works. Then the visibility: she is expected to be photographed doing it. Then the terms: a new “fair” media framework for covering their public work. Feeling. Purpose. Pictures. Terms. This is how you build a public role before anyone has formally given you one. And it is only in the Sussex world that a supposedly private couple needs to brief the media about how they feel, what they want, what they are planning and how their return should be perceived. The point is what it is being used to build: a public-facing Sussex role in Britain, with the titles, the royal connection and proximity to the Crown still doing the heavy lifting, while the obligations and discipline of being working royals remain firmly outside the door. They are testing the water. If the Royal Family stays silent while the photographs land, silence will be sold as consent. That’s half-in, half-out. Two snakes trying to slither back in through the side door, using charity, titles and proximity to the Crown to recreate the relevance they lost when they walked away. The question is whether Charles sees exactly what is happening. Will he put the Crown first and draw the line, or remain silent while Harry and Meghan slowly turn their ‘independent’ life into the half-in, half-out role they were denied? At some point, Charles has to decide whether protecting the Crown matters more than keeping the Sussexes happy. https://t.co/55szJqG136

I literally despise this clown. When will he ever be held to account? His father has done a very poor job of holding him to account his entire life. And now the only sane and normal person that came out of their family of four has to suffer. William had his arm around Harry his whole life until Meghan came along and he said in an interview he could not do it anymore. Anyone who thinks this bozo has good intentions and should get an apology from William has been living under a rock for the last 7 years. #FOHarry #ItsTimeForWilliam #StepDownCharles
