Three generations ago, King Edward VIII stunned the world and scandalized his family when he abdicated the throne to marry the American divorcee Wallis Simpson, causing a rift between his mother and niece, the eventual Queen Elizabeth II, that never truly healed. Two generations ago, Elizabeth and her sister Princess Margaret had a near-falling-out over Elizabeth’s refusal to sanction Margaret’s marriage to the divorced Peter Townsend. One generation ago, Prince Charles angered his parents by being unwilling to make things work with Princess Diana and instead desiring to marry the divorcee Camilla Parker Bowles. And now, in this generation, Prince Harry has instigated what appears to be an irreparable rift between himself and his brother Prince William, and possibly between himself and his father as well. At the center of this latest royal family sibling schism is yet another divorcee the American actress Meghan Markle.
