It cannot be that leaving the UK due to the Press thing is the main reason and the reason for him "protecting" his family. Doesn't make sense. Remaining a working Royal would have offered more PR and real protection. For one the British "press" is highly "regulated" when it comes to the Royals especially their children. I am sure they know that staying in the U.K. would have offered them and Archie more protection that anywhere else in the world. And I dont think they did this simply to give the finger to the UK press for bad press. Good example is one rarely see any official picture of Kate's kids. They are not hounded in London by the British press. I believe only once a German publication published one photo of George being dropped off at school. The only time you really see private pictures of royal kids is when the parents are at polo matched. that is really it.. Sure there are other cases here and there, but i live in Europe and the Royals are actually given tons of press privacy seeing how VIP that are.
now they will have to deal with TMZ , Just Jared and the likes. Notice the British press left harry and William alone until they were adults. This was the deal the Royal Press office made with them. Also most of the racist negative comments are not PRESS comments but online troll comments on Twitter etc..Leaving the U.K. wont solve this..
Also remember the french paparazzi (Not legit press) where the ones chasing Diana. How ironic now to Harry, she left UK and got the killed. Also Diana was no holy figure when it came to the press, she toyed, played and also used them for her promotion. Back then she was in a phase of finding importance so the Press were often called and there is dispute if Dodi and his father were the one who alerted the Paps on that night.. Dodi's father was loving every second of the PR/Pap blitz that followed his son with the Princess of Wales.
And if you believe Twitter ( lol) supposedly the Sussex's own PR alerted a specific Pap group for the recent pictures taken in Vancouver. It is known that many celebrities alert the Paps in order to get free PR
SO MUCH THIS ^
No way this is about protecting his family from what happened to his mother. His mother left the royal family, lost her title, pursued her own works, tried living a private life ...... and we know the ending. He is leaving the royal family and his responsibilities, lost his title, wants to pursue his own works and have a more private fulfilling life for his family. Uh .... yeah about that. If he truly believed this was to avoid a repeat as he keeps hinting at then he is very foolish. I don't believe he is that foolish. I think he is making up excuses that people might buy for him going out and living a different lifestyle. I think the Queen knows this which is why he seems to have been given a black and white decision to make. He tried to play the sympathy card in his speech (I watched it) but ..... sometimes you can overplay your card.
They need to get on with their lives, be happy and stay out of the press other than their works and please stop talking about the issue itself. People do get tired of whining.
And I would add that they carefully made their choice. Whatever the reason, they have selected less protection from the tabloids and paps by moving to North America.
It nullifies all their talk of safety, protecting family from what happened to Diana etc.
