Press see deal between
Queen and couple as unsentimental move by monarch
The news that
Prince Harry and Meghan will give up their royal titles, repay the £2.4m it cost to refurbish their Windsor home and stop receiving money from the state-funded sovereign grant was met with triumphalism by much of the
British press on Sunday.
“Queen orders a hard Megxit,” read the Sunday Mirror’s front-page headline. “Harry and Meghan Out in the Cold,” said the Sunday People. The Sun went for “Payback Time”, while the Sunday Express had “Freedom … at a price.”
