The palace papers revealed the royals knew and had discussed the possibility on a handful of occasions well before the sacking, even going so far as to discuss preemptively that the monarch would not wish to take the advice of the prime minister in replacing the governor general "If such an approach was made you may be sure that The Queen would take most unkindly to it" as written by her personal secretary.
Further, the vice regal is an extension of the regal. Nek minnit you're gonna say, oh the US president only ordered drone strikes, it was actually the drone operators who did the killing!

(Not fuck you, though, even if you do like the royals)
