Would You Give Up Social Media To Become Royalty?

American actress Meghan Markle is set to marry Prince Harry in May, and damn has she given up a lot for her guy. She moved to the UK and right into the media spotlight, retired from her acting career, had to leave her elderly rescue dog with friends back in North America (she thought the move would be rough on him in his old age), and now she's given up ALL OF HER SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS.

Instagram. Gone.

Twitter. Poof!

Facebook. Buh-bye.

I don't know what I'd do without social media. Did I even go to the gym if it's not on my Snapchat story? Did I take that vacation if every second isn't cataloged on Facebook? Do I even watch reality TV if I'm not complaining about it on Twitter?

On the other hand, the trade off is that Meghan will become Her Royal Highness Princess Henry of Wales. Her name will literally be in history books, kids. Literally.

Would you do it?
