Newest royal expected to join long tradition of social causes

- Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s first baby, due later this spring, will almost surely extend a long tradition of supporting royal causes, but those same customs will constrain the new prince or princess when it comes to politics.

Meghan Markle used her celebrity to back Hillary Clinton in the 2016 presidential election and attacked Donald Trump as “misogynistic” and “divisive.” The Los Angeles-born actress has worked as an ambassador for United Nations Women and the charity World Vision. “I’d seen this documentary on Netflix about feminism and one of the things they said during pregnancy was ‘I feel the embryonic kicking of feminism,’” Markle said.But commenting on international politics could get her into trouble with the royal household.The royal family for years has backed charities with social causes, and Queen Elizabeth has been patron or president of more than 600 of them, ranging from wildlife groups and sporting bodies to military organizations.

“There’s no problem with Meghan speaking out on feminism, social justice and equality issues, but if she starts getting political she’ll be in hot water,” said Katie Nicholl, author of “Harry: Life, Loss, and Love.” “The Queen is politically neutral. She expects her family to be the same.”“Harry and I see the world so similarly in our approach of being very hands-on with things,” Meghan said in February at a forum at the Royal Foundation.
