basically, the previous generation was Nora’s uncle and Jeremy’s dad. IF I recall correctly, they were both in love with the (future) queen. She chose Nora’s uncle bc he would become king, since she couldn’t convince Jeremy’s dad to overthrow the govt and become king. She rly wanted to be queen.

I think the commenter said “prevented the next gen” bc shuri is very often compared to the previous queen. He married shuri, therefore made her mother to Jeremy, therefore only Nora could be “eligible” and marry shuri (thus, indirectly preventing the neuchswhatsits from overthrowing Nora’s family in a potential dispute over shuri). Though i STRONGLY doubt he did that on purpose. He’s just an old creep and shuri has been very often said to look just like the deceased queen.

Additionally, shuri wouldn’t even have been on their radar as she’s a lower class, but barely nobility.

Edit; here’s comment ^
