Robert Lacey is quoted in the special special commemorative edition, “Meghan & Harry Welcome Baby Archie! The Couple’s Love-filled First Year” on pages 34 and 35:
“On June 14, 2018, Meghan joined Queen Elizabeth II, at Her Majesty’s invitation, to a day of public duties in northwest England. The joint outing, says Robert Lacey, historical consultant for THE CROWN, was ‘a really positive sign of favour, encouragement and endorsement by the Queen.’
“That same month, at Trooping the Colour, she asked Harry for a cue as to when to curtsy as the Queen passed. If anything, ‘she clearly shows every sign of taking her new job very seriously,’ notes Lacey.
“In January 2019, the Palace announced Meghan’s royal patronages, the four organisations that will be the focus of her charitable work. Among these is the National Theatre, formerly overseen by Queen Elizabeth II. ‘If Meghan is ever missing the excitement of acting, this will put her back in touch with show business in a very creative way,’ said Lacey. ‘I can see her getting involved in productions and maybe even directing.’”
