Back in 1936, King Edward VIII of England was forced to abdicate the throne in order to pursue a romantic relationship with the American actress Wallis Simpson.

So Prince Harry should be glad that he 1. lives in more tolerant times, and 2. has no real shot at becoming king, because he’s free to get it on with the Canadian actress Meghan Markle with no consequences more severe than the occasional mean tweet.

Of course, these days, Meghan is more popular than ever (and arguably more popular than Kate Middleton) in the the UK so when Suits ends its run on … whatever network Suits is on, the couple may want to put down stakes in London.

Something tells us that as wealthy, impossibly good-looking and insanely well-connected young people, they’ll do just fine no matter where they end up.
