It is one of the royal tasks par excellence: Queen Elizabeth II honors special achievements and services to society with a medal.
Meghan and Harry want to follow suit now.
Not only the
coronavirus *
pandemic
makes
Queen Elizabeth II.
To create - and the quarrel with
grandson Prince Harry
and his
wife Meghan
will not end.
The
Duke
and
Duchess of Sussex *
continue to infect the royal family.
Meghan *
not only goes to vote and speaks publicly about her miscarriage, but is now planning
to award
prizes
.
London - Riots in
Buckingham Palace
: The
corona virus
does not stop at the British royal family.
Even
Queen Elizabeth II.
And her
husband Prince Philip
have at
Christmas
reschedule.
You will not
spend
the holidays this year as usual in
Sandringham
in the east of England in the county of Norfork, but "in peace" in
Windsor
.
Whether there will
be a meeting with all children, grandchildren and great-grandchildren
despite the
pandemic
, initially remained uncertain.
A grandson had already cut himself off last year -
the
Queen
should be
this
Christmas
deal with another scandal.
Meghan and Harry have plans: do they want to compete with the Queen?
The Queen's grandson,
Prince Harry *
, had already spent the holidays in 2019 with his
wife Meghan
and
son Archie
in the USA, where the couple
lived permanently
after the
"Megxit" in 2019
.
According to insiders, his grandmother was not very happy even then.
Now new speculations are making
headlines.
The
Duke and Duchess of Sussex
reportedly
do not want to go to
Winsor
this
Christmas
either
.
But that's not all: The two apparently have plans that
could cause new
problems when they meet the
Queen
.
As the British tabloid newspaper
The Sun
reports,
Duchess Meghan
and
Prince Harry
want to
create their own
prize
.
With a kind of
medal
, the couple intends to
solemnly honor
people, companies
and
charities
- at least those in areas of activity that are particularly important to the duo.
The
Sun
relies on a court document that is said to include the following list: "Charitable work,
education
,
science
, literature, the fight against
racism
, equality,
environmental responsibility
, youth advancement, physical and mental health."
Meghan and Harry want to give the awards allegedly through their own foundation "Archewell".

The British tabloids immediately speculated that
Duchess Meghan
and
Prince Harry
would
compete
with the traditional
honors
of
Queen Elizabeth II
.
And indeed: the prizes they want to award and which are supposed to focus on outstanding personalities and groups in the mentioned areas could
overlap
with the choice of the
queen
.
This could again cause explosive within Harry's royal relatives, as the
awards from
Elizabeth II
were fixed dates in the
British event
calendar. Every
New Year
and her
birthday party in June
, the Queen honors important personalities with orders of merit, including the so-called
accolade
.
Harry and Meghan go their own way - the break with the royal family is getting bigger.
"Don't be afraid to do what you know is right - even if it's not popular, even if it's never been done before, even if it scares people,"
Meghan
appealed
on an online Conference in the summer to women around the world - and seemed
to talk
about himself and
Harry
too.
To be socially committed, but at the same time
to lead
a lavish
lifestyle
- how do
Harry and Meghan
finance it
?
Among other things, they have now signed a lucrative contract with the streaming service Netflix and want to produce documentaries, feature films and offers for children.
Whether the Queen is "amused" about it?
