They also created a climate where every and any commentator felt empowered to slag off Harry’s missus and ridicule him while they were at it. Often the criticism touched on the money they made from serial revelations. Then again, the royals have a long track record of monetising their status. Tours of Buck House; shedloads of Highgrove branded produce, endless licensing of commercial tat: mugs, tea towels, coins et al.
Harry has been a godsend to them too; offering on a plate the kind of material which would otherwise have taken weeks of backstairs schmoozing or a discreet briefing from “sources close to”. Pageantry is often invoked as the reason we need to keep the royals. Something we do “so well”. Something the rest of the world envies. But here’s the thing; if watching parades of young people in full military garb trotting around London astride gleaming horses is your thing, it can actually happen without any royals at all.
