Just a note. Charles purchased a pretty nothing house for the Duchy of Cornwall with little to recommend it.

Geez, people …. get over yourselves! This isn't a marital divorce. It's a logical progression of the reality between these two particular brothers. They are both the sons of a future king. One will one day become king himself. The other will be relegated to the background. Their interests would have a natural divide. They are at that point. Let it go and let's all move on!
Why will their interests divide? They are both working royals, both supporting the RF and Britain, both doing charity work and representing the monarch.
Good point Admirer U.S.And I think temperamentally, they are all suited to the directions in which they are heading. The Cambridges play within the status quo to influence it while the Sussexes are happy to rouse outside opinion to nudge the status quo. So that's a smart deployment of personalities as well. JMO.

Good for them. Unfortunately the BRF and British media don't recognize Meghan's value.

I’m actually quite surprised at the decision, though I expected it. I really think this could have been such a huge foundation with the back of all four, with umbrella charities underneath really receiving the best publicity.
So from reading the releases it appears that in the autumn we will get a final confirmation of the split by the announcement of the Sussex foundation and which of their initiatives will be transferring over.
I have to agree with the statements about that the one foundation backed by all four would have been the better way. Imagine that strength of that? Now we have two competing foundations in a way. And yes they can focus on different things but ultimately the attention will be split.
Oh well. They all know what is best for them.
The devil will be in the details. As with everything to do with Harry and Meghan, there’s the issue of funding and who’s footing the bill.
None of The Queen’s children have foundations aside from Charles. It really doesn’t make sense to create a new entity for the 6th in line to the throne.
It makes complete sense from the Cambridge perspective to have The Royal Foundation focusing solely on them but it’ll be interesting to see what shape the Sussexes new ‘Foundation’ takes on.
You are right, the media will turn itin to a' who raised more or who has the best celebs. Etc etc. Which will detract from the good work being done by all parties.I totally agree with you. It would’ve been great. Now there will be two competing foundations. That’s how the press will portray it and we know it’s the press who control the narrative.
