Why Harry and Meghan Markle’s dog is important in their engagement

Among the dogs they are proud owners of the prince Harry And Meghan Marklethere is one who – from an unlikely key figure in the series Harry & Meghan – runs the risk of overshadowing the former royal couple for some scenes. Is called guy, he is a beagle and above all, we learn from the thousands of information from the docuseries that automatically generates controversy, he played a crucial role in the engagement and in marriage proposal from Harry to Meghan in 2017.

At the time of their meeting, in 2016, Meghan, already then a great lover of dogs, in addition to Guy had bogarta cross between a German Shepherd and a Labrador, adopted at the suggestion of the American TV star Ellen DeGeneres whom he had met at the kennel. When the actress then decides to move to London to live with Harry, Bogart however remains in Toronto with some friends: the English gossips are quick to blame Meghan, already crowned villain of the Kingdom, of abandonment, they say that the dog was sacrificed « because he doesn’t get along with Harry», while other less malignant sources speak of the dog’s difficulties in travelling.

Meanwhile Guy in the series Harry & Meghan he has earned his supporting role, when we are shown some selfies from the evening of marriage proposal: a picnic blanket on a lawn in Kensington Palace, electric candles, the two betrothed and, between them, the dog. At the time injured, with two legs in plaster.

“I was sure she would say yes,” says Harry. “Of course, you had my dog ​​hostage,” Meghan jokes. The rest is history: royal wedding was. But even before the marriage proposal, Guy had always been a constant presence in Meghan’s life, from her adoption to Toronto at the time when she was working she was the star of the series Suits. Then Guy followed her to move to England and finally back to the other side of the ocean, a Montecitoin California, where the former royal family lives far from the Palazzo (but not from the controversy).

If the amount of social photo appearances is any reliable indicator, then it’s clear that Guy is a full-fledged member of the family. Guy under the California sun, Guy walking in misty England, Guy in every moment of conviviality.

But the beagle “witness of love” is not the only dog ​​of Harry and Meghan: the two also have a labrador named Chaff and they recently adopted another one beagle, Mama Miaseven years old.

And whoever thinks that these are secondary details after all is very wrong: immediately after the megxit, the famous voluntary exit of Harry and Meghan from the royal family that had taken the world by surprise, there are those who, looking back, were mortified by the missed scoop. After all, the signs were all there: the dogs who hadn’t returned to England after a holiday in Canada were the most obvious indication that the couple intended to leave his homeland and settle on the other continent. Follow the dogs, here’s the trail to follow.
