It’s official: Harry and his wife Meghan have made their final split with the British Royal family.One of the most extraordinary royal exits in decades was formalized on Friday (February 19), with Buckingham Palace confirming that the couple will not be returning as working members of the monarchy.The pair caused a stir in January 2020, when they announced they were splitting from the family and embarking on a new future across the Atlantic -- to live a more independent life and escape the British media.Under a deal brokered by Queen Elizabeth, Harry and Meghan were released from royal duties but had to agree not to use the word "royal" in their branding -- and a 12-month review was agreed.The formalization of the split means the couple will lose their honorary military appointments and royal patronages, which will revert to the queen to be re-distributed among other family members.The decision amounts to an abdication from the royal family, whose senior members have long prioritized duty above personal wishes.Harry and Meghan's new chapter will also involve a new family member: they announced on Sunday they were expecting their second child.They will break their silence on the royal split in an interview with Oprah Winfrey next month.

The yacht aboard which fleeing Dubai royal Princess Latifa hoped to reach India – and eventually a life of freedom beyond the clutches of her domineering father – was well-equipped for open water sailing. A 29-metre ketch motor sailer captained by a former French intelligence officer, the Nostromo carried an array of advanced communication and navigation aids. Below decks, mobile phones, a laptop computer, VHF radio, radar, automatic identification system transceivers and receivers, a satellite Iridium phone and an internet satellite receiver blinked and flashed as they sent and received signals. One of these devices gave away the location of the vessel, which on the eighth day of its 2018 journey was boarded in international waters off the coast of Goa by Indian and Emirati commandos, who carried Princess Latifa kicking and biting back to her life of gilded seclusion in the UAE. “It was like a military operation,” recalled Tiina Jauhiainen, the Finnish fitness instructor who was aboard the yacht with her friend and now campaigns for her freedom, this week releasing new videos of the princess in captivity saying she feared for her life. The story of Princess Latifa’s escape reads like fiction but how she was caught is equally the stuff of spy novels.
