Since the Barracks the spirits in the British kingdom have not stirred a resignation message like that of British Prince Harry and his wife Megan Markle, who declared last night to retire from their royal role, set off independently and now spend half their time in the US and Canada with their little son Archie.

In Britain, the move has already been dubbed a "megazit" (pun on "barcasit"), and social networking discussions about the new drama are uncomfortable.

Apart from knowing that the two did not share a royal son or friends in the decision, leaving Queen Elizabeth hurt and angry - the central question that engages everyone is what really lies behind the news of the separation from the royal house and the declaration of financial independence.

While the Dukes want the public to believe that they will now be self-sufficient, the reality, I understand, is far different.

The independent way declared by the two includes the possibility of working for an annual wage, which is currently prohibited by the rules of the royal house.

Know something says that such independence will at least potentially allow the couple to earn millions of dollars from deals and business and advertising opportunities that flow into them, including the possibility of Merkel returning to engage in the game.

Even without deals and campaigns, the fortunes of the two are insignificant. Harry has an inheritance of about £ 20m from his late mother Diana, and another £ 7m from his grandmother's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth's mother, and he has also received £ 2.3m from his father so far, alongside Covering his and his family's travel expenses, their security, and so on, Merkel is also worth $ 4 million, a fortune earned from her acting career and assets.

The capital of the British royal house is estimated at about $ 88 billion. The royal family is considered one of the richest in the world, and their fortunes include a lot of real estate, cash, jewelry and treasures.

Experts estimate that the two are giving up £ 5.5m a year so far from a variety of sources, including the Queen's royal sovereign grant, and a considerable amount of money they received from Harry's father, Prince Charles, each month.

Although the two have in effect declared retirement from the royal house, which means that they no longer have to fulfill official state and royal duties, the two will reportedly continue to use British taxpayer money, and in considerable amount.

It is not known if and how much money the couple will continue to receive from those sources, but the security costs of the couple and their son, which includes close police escort around the clock, can reach up to £ 1 million a year, and will be funded from British taxpayer money.

Their new home, which they received from Queen Elizabeth in Windsor, and undergoing a massive renovation costing around £ 2.4m of British taxpayer money, will remain in their possession, as the two announced last night in their retirement statement.
