Prince Harry's Thoroughly Modern Match is Just What the Royals Need

Guest: Gregory Jackson, PhD, Assistant Professor of Integrated Studies, Utah Valley University, and Podcast Host, “History That Doesn’t Suck”  A spring wedding is the works for Britain’s Prince Harry and American actress Meghan Markle. The match highlights a modern shift in the House of Windsor. Not only is Markle American, she’s also divorced from a previous husband. The last time a member of Britain’s royal family tried marrying an American divorcee, he was forced to abdicate the throne, which made way for Queen Elizabeth to ultimately wear the crown. And now Queen Elizabeth says she’s “delighted” at her grandson’s wedding news.
