When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry moved to America, there were many theories regarding what ultimately motivated them to leave their old lives behind.
Some said they were tired of being bullied by the British tabloid press.
One only has to look at their new, non-royal portrait to see how far Meghan and Harry have come from their royal days.
According to a new book, it was the Queen who decided that the two could not be trusted with the "royal" title after Megxit.
Here in America, it's been a pretty banner year for hate, corruption, and all types of vile human beings.
But we certainly don't hold a monopoly on douchebag behavior - after all, the Brits have Piers Morgan.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are no longer members of the Royal Family.
But that doesn't mean they can't still pose for official portraits.
Few people have experienced the dark side of social media as extensively as Meghan Markle.
In fact, in a recent interview, Meghan reminded fans that she was named the most trolled person in the world in 2019.
Maybe there's a reason so many fairy tales end with the heroine marrying the prince.
If the story continued from there, we'd see that the situation wasn't so "happily ever after" after all.
According to a wild new report, Meghan Markle wants to run for President someday.
We have no idea whether or not that is true.
One of the reasons that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry moved to America was to escape the drama that had been tearing at the fabric of the royal family since the time they started dating.
Needless to say it didn't work.
Generally speaking, Christmas is a time for forgiveness, compassion, and understanding.
But like everything else about this year, Christmas 2020 will likely be one giant sh-tshow, so what better time to stick it to the in-laws you can't stand anyway?
Over the past few years, Meghan Markle has gone from little-known actress on a basic cable legal drama to one of the most famous women in the world.
And not surprisingly, such a meteoric rise has presented plenty of challenges.
You know what they say in the world of politics, right?
Never let a good crisis go to waste.
We've always known that Meghan Markle is an ambitious woman (we use that word as a compliment, not in the shade-throwing her in-laws might say it).
From humble beginnings, the LA native built a successful acting career before becoming a global hero as the first Black member of the British royal family and a trailblazing advocate for the underprivileged.
On Wednesday evening, Donald Trump refused to say he would peacefully transfer over the Presidency if Joe Biden won the election next month.
After making this atonishing statement, the Commander-in-Chief was asked about something far more important than the pillars of American Democracy...
Even though Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are moving on with their lives, they still take issue with the vicious behavior of the British media.
But their lawsuit against a tabloid that invaded Meghan's privacy may expose her to further humiliation -- forcing her to hand over months of texts, emails, and more.
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry had many reasons for stepping down from their roles as senior members of the royal family:
They hoped to escape the constant scrutiny of the British tabloid press; they wanted to start a new life in America without all the pressures of royal obligation; they wanted to raise their son in an environment where he might experience some semblance of a normal childhood ...
In the years before she met and married Prince Harry, Meghan Markle developed a close friendship with Jessica Mulroney, her makeup artist on the legal drama Suits.
Jessica was in attendance at the royal wedding, and her public profile took off like a shot once Meghan became the Duchess of Sussex.
Think of this as the royal equivalent of "you can't fire me, I quit!"
When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry first stepped down from their roles as senior members of the royal family, there was much debate over whether the couple should be stripped of their royal titles.
When Meghan Markle and Prince Harry moved to Los Angeles after a temporary sojourn on Canada's Vancouver Island, it was widely assumed that the couple would eventually enter the media sphere.
Of course, no one guessed that it would happen so quickly or that the couple's very first project would be quite so lucrative.
Last month, Meghan Markle celebrated her 39th birthday, and to the surprise of many, she received warm wishes from the Queen, and from Prince William and Kate Middleton.

When it was first announced that Meghan Markle and Prince Harry would be stepping down as senior members of the royal family, many wondered what their financial situation would look like once they became private citizens.
Obviously, they both lived in the lap of luxury during their (brief, in Meghan's case) time as royals.
While the rest of the world stayed put as a result of the coronavirus lockdown, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry spent much of 2020 on the move.
First, the couple decamped from the UK and set up shop in Vancouver.
According to insiders familiar with the situation, when Meghan Markle and Prince Harry stepped down as senior members of the royal family, one of the major concerns among the royal elite was that they would promptly begin sharing family secrets with the American press.
