I don't believe this is a sudden decision on their part. Maybe Prince Charles cutting off their income is a new idea, and it might be a game-changer for Harry and Meghan. After all, she can't work in show business any more, and Harry never had a "job" to speak of.

I would expect that the British Royals will not allow Harry and Meghan to starve or declare bankruptcy, should they decide to leave England.
