‘Sussexit’ is the word

Is it sus-exit? Or sussex-it? Whatever it is, the BBC is saying it after dropping ‘Megxit’ as the title of the 2nd of its 2-part doco series The Princes and the Press. Prince Harry has argued that Megxit is a misogynistic term that blames his wife Meghan for their departure from royal life. It was “created by a troll, amplified by royal correspondents, and it grew and grew and grew into mainstream media,” he says. The UK’s national broadcaster has heeded the call – but there’s still a lot of unhappiness about the series. The first ep focused on the princes’ relationship with the press, and the second is on Sussexit. See, it’s catching on… Buckingham Palace has called the series “overblown and unfounded”, and William and Kate are so cranky they’re said to be thinking about uninviting the BBC from their Christmas party… There’s no word on when the doco will be available to view here in Oz.
