The Sussex Downgrade

Sussex downgrade

It was going to happen. The Sussex profiles on the official royal website have been changed to a single profile rather than individual ones, prompting a downgrade. As the alteration was being made, the separate profiles were removed for almost an hour before replacing them with what we have now.

As the change happened, the internet was alight with joy, believing that the Sussexes were finally cut from the family. Is this a good thing? Yes, it is, but we see it more as a compromise. Downgrade the Sussexes by having them have one joint profile and then two with a word count of roughly 4k words.

Both their careers were built off the backs of other people. While they shouldn’t be on the website, having one profile is generous. They are also the only married couple within the royal family to have a combined profile. All the other couples, the King and Queen, the Prince and Princess of Wales, the Duke and Duchess of Edinburgh and the Duke and Duchess of Gloucester, all have individual pages. Princess Alexandra is widowed and Princess Anne’s husband, Sir Timothy Lawerence, isn’t a working royal. Also, the Duchess of Kent is retired and only the Duke of Kent works.

The Ultimate Sussex Downgrade

This downgrade could be seen as a massive slap in the face for the Sussex brand, and rightfully so. Whether Harry and Meghan were aware of this change is unknown, but some have suggested that they will fire their own shots as retaliation for giving them a single profile. Honestly, who cares? They did this to themselves. It’s no secret that if you leave, you cease to be royal, yet most intelligent people can see through their faux royal routine with the extra security like they’re the president and first lady. Scratch that. Not even the President has that the level of security the Sussexes have in public.

We could go on about how the Sussexes aren’t targets of anything all day. It annoys us so much that they believe they’re in danger. Why? Because Meghan is biracial and Harry has targets on his back due to his so-called Taliban kill count? Perhaps he shouldn’t have included it in his book. Despite what he says, it does not help anyone in the armed forces. No one with a brain would dare publish their kill count.

Harry’s mention of his kill count puts not only his children and wife but also his extended family in danger. He believes he is the best thing to hit the army since Louis Mountbatten, Prince Philip’s favourite uncle. The redheaded son of The King hasn’t done anything special for the army outside of sitting in a bunker and playing video games. No wonder people call him ‘Bunker Harry’.
