I recognise the challenges they have experienced as a result of intense scrutiny over the last two years and support their wish for a more independent life," she said in a statement."I want to thank them for all their dedicated work across this country, the Commonwealth and beyond, and am particularly proud of how Meghan has so quickly become one of the family. It is my whole family's hope that today's agreement allows them to start building a happy and peaceful new life," the Queen said.Earlier, Prince Harry and Meghan had announced that they will "step back as 'senior' members of the royal family" and are planning to work towards becoming "financially independent".( With inputs from ANI )
