Are Prince Harry and Meghan, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, dropping out of the Royal family to take up RVing in North America? They’d jump right to the top of most famous RVers.
Now that they’ve cut purse strings with the Royal family, how will they make a living? Monetizing their celebrity through brand partnerships, sponsorship deals and social media seems most likely. They wouldn’t have a problem, we think, getting Thor, Forest River or another major RV manufacturer to spend a fortune to send them around the USA publicizing one of their products.
Actually, according to Snopes.com, two RV dealers have already used the photo above in their advertising:
Lee’s Family Trailer Sales & Service wrote: “This nice, young couple from England certainly knows where to shop when it comes to buying a camper! It was great meeting you Meghan and Harry, enjoy your new home on wheels!”
The Home Farm Holiday Park (in the U.K.) wrote: “We have just sold our first seasonal touring pitch of 2020 to a lovely couple who just want to get away from the hustle and bustle! You too can grab a seasonal pitch and live like a royal!”
Before marrying Harry, Meghan ran the lifestyle/fashion blog The Tig, which gave her one foot in the world of influencers (the name given to people who create and often monetize original content on social media).
Last April, @SussexRoyal broke Instagram’s record for the fastest one million followers (less than six hours). Now it has 11 million and is the couple’s platform of choice for personal announcements.
So what about it? Are Harry and Meghan giving up a royal life for an RV life?
Nope, they’re not. This is just another example of someone with Photoshop skills faking a photo. Harry and Meghan have shown no interest in becoming RVers. We doubt that they’d really want to travel around Canada and the United States talking with the news media.
Thanks to Snopes.com for alerting to this fake news, spread like wildfire by the worst purveyors of fake news ever created, social media users.

Thank God its fake. Otherwise, there goes the neighborhood
Who cares? Why even bring it up in the newsletter?
We put it in the newsletter to show what happens on social media and with Photoshopping. And because it’s regarding RVing, in a roundabout sorta way. And because they’re in the news so much. And because it’s kind of a fun story. And because we felt like it. Oh, and because … we can. 🙄 —Diane at RVtravel.com
Who cares, WHO CARES! As a Canadian, I can only hope we don’t trip over ourselves adding these two to the 200,000 lost soles the Liberal government brought in here from outside the country the third quarter of 2019, most of whom will initially live off those who actually work and pay for stuff. ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!
Instantly spotted as fake as Meg has way better figure that that lass…..
So sick of hearing about these two. Thanks for putting it all into a humerus perspective.
The entry door for the trailer is on the wrong side for England.
Why must there be all that fake news?
They would never be caught dead in a camper like that…maybe the Newell/Porsche!
Did anyone really fall for that picture?
She doesn’t look very happy !!!
She isn’t and when its all over, Good ol’ boy Happy Harry with be back in England with his kid and suitcase ringing the bell at the gate.
I doubt that we will see any member of the “Royal Family” parked at any campground.
Fact is “Royals” feel the are better than us common folks…we are after all just common
Peasants who work for our living !
The future Queen was a mechanic during WW2, she also had regularly drove herself in her Range Rover over her estates.
You right! Can you imagine Meghan putting on Rubber Gloves and emptying the Black Tank?? {bleeped}!
Definitely -HARDLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
She changes diapers so why not dumping the tanks. She can definitely do it… but does she want to do it. I don’t think they are RVer’s. I do think they care about children and injustices and will make life better for others.
Maybe the Queen will go RVing.
I guess you can tow an Airstream with a Rolls Royce…
Good thought!
