As Twitter Becomes Obsessed With Meghan Markle's 'Suitability,' J.K. Rowling Shuts It All Down
The Church of England was founded so a king could divorce.
As the news of Prince Harry's engagement to actress and entrepreneur Meghan Markle has spread, so have discussions about Markle's "suitability" as a partner for Harry.
While most agree the entire conversation is distasteful and only Harry can decide who is or is not suitable for him, that didn't stop conservative British newspaper The Spectator from weighing in on Twitter.
They clearly do not approve:
For those not in-the-know, "CofE" is short for the Church of England and according to tradition, the reigning monarch of England is also the head of the Church. In this case, of course, that would be Harry's grandmother, Queen Elizabeth.
But the notion that Markle is somehow "unsuitable" because she has been divorced struck people as a bit off, especially considering the history of the Church of England itself.
I mean...
History buffs weren't the only ones with questions...
Even J.K. Rowling got in on the discussion, shutting The Spectator's assertion down with a single hashtag:
And Twitter was here for it...
We'll give Byron the last GIF in this discussion:
We wish Meghan and Harry all the best in their union!
