Of all the stories about the British royal family, and they are legion, none beg to start “Once upon a time” quite as insistently as those about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle. But then there’s so much else to throw in the story that this detail should get squeezed out. Like the fact that not only is the newborn’s first name not yet known, but nor is his last name, or his title. There are probably some cynics out there who are asking, as they do whenever the British royalty take over the news and social media, why should we care? But all that does is generate yet more stories, these about why we do care.
