Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, formally the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, seem to be everywhere these days, giving their account of mistreatment by the British royal family. First, there was the couple’s interview with Oprah Winfrey, then a six-part Netflix documentary, and now Spare, Harry’s memoir of life as King Charles’ younger son. (The title is a nod to the dictum that those in line for the throne should make sure to have two children, “an heir and a spare.”)
- They prioritized an organization over the human beings within it.
- They assumed that Harry and Meghan had no other choice.
Of course, not quite everyone falls into line so willingly. For example, King Edward VIII refused to follow instructions. He abdicated the throne in 1936 after the government refused to allow his marriage to Wallis Simpson, a divorced American.
