A royal expert said Meghan and Harry would not move back to Britain. Now, the British have compared Meghan to Wallis Simpson, the wife of former King Edward.
Former royal affairs correspondent Richard Mineid said Meghan and Harry were "more popular" in the United States. He said the Britons likened Meghan to Wallis Simpson, who "stole the king."
In early 2020, Harry made the shocking decision to resign as a senior member of the royal family, marking the end of his noble life.
He now lives with Megan and their two children, Archie and Lilybert, in a mansion in MonteSetto, Santa Barbara.
Like Megan, Simpson is an American divorcee. Her marriage to King Edward in 1937 changed the course of history and indirectly put Queen Elizabeth II on the throne.
Meghan and Harry's neighbor Mineid told The Standard: "As people get to know Harry and Meghan, I think they'll love them staying here." I don't think they're going to move back to the UK at all. The British believed meghan was Wallis Simpson who stole the king. ”
In 1936, King Edward VIII of the United Kingdom's love affair with American socialite Wallis Simpson was despised by the public, eventually forcing the monarch to give up the throne for love.
The Church of England refused to recognize the couple's marriage because it prohibited divorced people whose former spouses were still alive from remarrying.
This forced Edward to abdicate in December 1936, saying that "without the help and support of the woman I love", he could not have become king.
The couple eloped and married on June 3, 1937 at kander Castle in France, but members of the royal family did not attend the wedding.
They became Duke and Duchess of Windsor. But Simpson was never awarded the title of "Princess Highness," which meant that lower members of the royal family and the public would not bow their knees to her.
It is believed that queen consort George VI, Elizabeth II's mother, angered by her husband's unprepared burden of the state, prevented The Title of Her Majesty to Mrs. Simpson.
