Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have recently faced criticism for what some perceive as strategic attention-seeking actions. Critics have noted that the couple often coincides their public announcements with important moments involving the Royal Family, leading to speculation about their motives.
Since his departure from the Royal Family in 2020, Prince Harry and Meghan settled in California with their son, Prince Archie, and later welcomed their daughter, Princess Lilibet. Her move was marked by explosive revelations during a televised interview in which she accused members of the Royal Family of racial insensitivity towards her son, among other grievances.
Royal expert Jennie Bond said OK!: “I honestly can’t imagine they’re sitting there planning to make announcements on the same day as an actual event. Surely they are bigger than that?
“It’s true that there have been some rather strange coincidences in the past about the timing of some of their announcements. But I think they are becoming less and less relevant to the news here, and the Royal Family will always get the attention.”
The timing of their various public statements and projects has consistently aligned with major Royal Family events or announcements, prompting accusations that the couple is trying to stay relevant by attracting attention during these times.
This pattern of behavior has led to increased scrutiny of Harry and Meghan’s actions, with critics urging them to find more appropriate ways to maintain their public presence without overshadowing family milestones. The discussion continues as observers look at how the Duke and Duchess will navigate their roles and relationships in the public eye, both as former royals and as international celebrities based in the United States.
