Prince Harry and Meghan Markle allegedly have plans to leave Montecito and relocate to Hope Ranch, and their neighbors couldn’t be more thrilled or the couple’s departure.
An unnamed source told Star that Prince Harry and Markle’s neighbors do not necessarily like them because they think they’re rude. After all, they do not greet the people that they cross paths with.
“Montecito is a friendly community, it’s common courtesy to say hello to someone when you’re walking your dog. But Harry and Meghan cross over to the other side of the street and keep their heads down to avoid any interaction. They’re so rude!” the source said.
Markle also has the habit of going to the grocery store herself and this causes long lines because people want to see her. Prince Harry also goes out often and he has the tendency to occupy two slots in the parking lot.
“You always know it’s him because he parks that huge SUV of his over two spaces, which just shows how selfish he is,” the source said.
What’s worse is that some of the residents are blaming Prince Harry and Markle for the increase of crime rates in the area. They think that it’s because Montecito became a tourist attraction for those that want to see the couple’s home.
“Some locals believe that’s because Harry and Meghan put it on the map. Five years ago, I wouldn’t have thought twice about leaving my front door unlocked. Not anymore,” a source said.
However, one should take the tabloid’s claims with a grain of salt. It’s obvious that Prince Harry and Markle are just blamed for everything.
Since Montecito is a private neighborhood, it’s still relatively safe. And the increased crime rate cannot be blamed on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex.
It’s not true that Markle and Prince Harry do not greet their neighbors. There’s no reason for them to ignore their neighbors because Montecito is the home of celebrities and A-listers.
By the looks of it, the tabloid is once again using Prince Harry and Markle for clickbait purposes. After all, criticisms of the couple seem to generate impressive views because a lot of people seemingly dislike the Sussexes.
In fact, the constant criticism was one of the reasons why they quit The Firm.
