As members of the royal family, it is the duty of both Prince Harry and his wife, Meghan Markle to let the people of England know their day-to-day activities.

After all, as a citizen of a country who charges a hefty price from taxes in order to sustain the lavish way of living of the monarchs, it's no wonder why many people would want to see where their taxes go and how they're spent.

Recently though, the Duke and Duchessof Sussex have made a request, and they did so without the slightest bit of subtlety, that got the eyes of many people rolling.

It's no secret that Prince Harry and Meghan have been blessed with their own bundle of joy. The entire nation, and even the entire world celebrated with them when young Archie was born. It comes as no surprise that people will get angry and irritated if such an adorable little creature would be kept hidden from them. And that is exactly what the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did.

The couple took it upon themselves to hold a private ceremony for Archie's Christening, which obviously did not sit well with the majority of people. After finding out that the tax increase is being caused by numerous maintenanc efforts for the homes of the royal family, including Prince Harry and Meghan's Frogmore Cottage, people became furious, thus afecting the reputation of the royal couple.

To add insult to injury, the two also went to Ibiza using a private jet probably to avoid the all-seeing eye of the media. This was done after the couple pledged to live a cleaner and greener lifestyle to help heal the planet.

A report on the Express shows that this is not a good look for Harry and Meghan and could further affect their popularity.

According to the opinion of broadcaster Caroline Frost, a royal family member who decides to live a private life is not the best thing to do.

She said, “I think because they enjoy the benefits of such a huge public platform, and clearly they’re wanting to do brilliant things with that huge profile.

“And now Harry after a long time of being a third wheel at the side of William and Kate, and now he has very much his own partner, his own family, his increased maturity and experience, this is an amazing opportunity for him and Meghan to basically take on all the projects that they want to do.

“However, they’ve taken on a lot very quickly, at the beginning of their marriage.

“And it does mean that there’s that increased scrutiny on all sort of things, like Meghan’s baby shower in New York, like the decision not to receive Donald Trump, similarly for this private jet to Ibiza, when they’re talking about eco-awareness.
