Over the centuries,royal babieshave been subject to unusual rules.
However, royals have reshaped birth protocol to suit their preferences.
But by the time Prince Edward was born, Queen Elizabeth askedPrince Philip to break tradition.
Diana also opted for an active birth.
“Harry had always enjoyed outfoxing the media,” wrote Nicholl, according to Page Six.
This departure from protocol caused angst within the royal household.
Harry’s motivation for privacy lay in his relationship with the media.
Previously, Princess Diana had spoken out about the media’s impact on her first pregnancy.
As for Harry’s decision, some of the media sympathized with him.
“It is completely understandable,” royal author Ingrid Seward toldPeoplein 2019.
“The Lindo Wing has become too much of a circus.”
