It’s Hard to Watch “The Crown” Season 4 Without Thinking of Harry and Meghan
As The Crown Season 4 shows with Princess Margaret, the British monarchy has always struggled when it comes to second-born siblings….



In episode seven of The Crown season four, Princess Margaret starts screaming at her mother on a beach in Scotland. She’s sick of it all: the family’s secrets, her dropping place in the line of succession, and transitively, her growing irrelevance as a public royal figure. “If you’re not first in line, if you’re an individual character with individual needs,” she says, “you’ll be spat out or hidden away.”
It’s an imagined conversation between two characters in a show that’s historical fiction. But when Helena Bonham Carter utters the lines, it’s hard not to think that perhaps Crown creator Peter Morgan wrote it with a real-life figure in mind: Prince Harry.
Nine months earlier, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle left the monarchy in an abrupt move that took the world, and even their own family, by surprise. Their official reasoning was, as they wrote on Instagram, for “space to focus on the next chapter.” The press reported more personal motivations: a desire for more privacy, exhaustion from the negative tabloid reports. But also another factor that was intrinsic and unfixable: their apparent sidelining. They felt senior family members’ initiatives—William and Kate’s, Charles and Camilla’s— were prioritized over theirs. They may have wielded megawatt star power, but it still wasn’t enough to overcome the inevitable: William and Charles one day would be kings ordained with divine power. Harry, as sixth in line to the throne, would not.
The royal family is, yes, a family. But it’s also a business—one that Forbes estimates makes £1.8 billion for the UK economy per year. Their money-making model is one of crowns, castles, pomp and circumstance, and most of all, the concept of the monarchy itself: that, among us mere mortals, there are those with a birthright to serve as custodians of a country’s history and morals. The Crown’s plotlines show that personal-professional dichotomy season after season: Princess Margaret can’t marry Peter Townsend not because the Queen doesn’t like him, but because she’s the head of the Church of England, which doesn’t approve of divorcés. Queen Elizabeth can’t share her opinions about the Commonwealth with Margaret Thatcher because as an unelected head of state, she’s not allowed to politically pressure Prime Ministers. And despite skills, experience, or even vested interest, there’s only one monarch born into the job.

Cardi B’s $60K Birkin Bag Gets The ‘Mommy Treatment’ As Daughter Unleashes Her Creativity

In a moment of relatable frustration, Cardi B took to Instagram to share a funny yet surprising story about her expensive $60,000 Birkin bag, one of her favorite items from her luxury collection. Known for her bold personality and honest social media posts, Cardi revealed that one of her daughters had turned the fancy purse into a makeshift canvas, drawing a heart on it without permission. “Look what my daughter did to my purse,” Cardi said dramatically in her Instagram Story, showing off the iconic bag to her followers. “I literally spent $60,000 on this purse,” she exclaimed, still amazed by the unexpected ‘artwork’ from her little girl.
Although she was frustrated, the mom of three tried to take it all in stride, at least for the moment. Cardi values her hard-earned luxury items, especially her growing collection of high end bags. However, as any parent knows, kids have a skill for creating chaos even in the most cherished parts of life. For Cardi, that chaos includes her high-priced accessories. The post quickly gained attention online, with fans sympathizing with Cardi’s situation. Many found humor in the irony of the event, while others offered support, pointing out that such moments are just part of the unpredictable journey of parenthood. Cardi has previously emphasized that family is her top priority, even if it means dealing with some messiness.

But Cardi’s frustration didn’t stop there. She later took to Twitter to respond to comments made by Kanye West regarding her staying power in the spotlight. While she didn’t mention him directly, her tweet, “7 years 1 album… STILL being a topic and STILL being asked about my music!!!” sent a clear message. She confidently asserted her spot in the entertainment world, clarifying that her fans, known as “The Brim,” are not going anywhere. In the end, whether it’s a damaged Birkin bag or dealing with critics, Cardi B repeatedly shows that she remains unfazed by the ups and downs of fame, always staying true to herself and her family.
