Royal pair Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are being accused of trying to steal the Queen’s thunder during the celebrations for Remembrance Day.
Royal journalist and talkRADIO host Dan Wootton reveals in an appearance with The Royal Beat that both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle purposedly published their photos of them paying homage to Remembrance Day in Los Angeles in a bid to ‘overshadow’ the Queen.
He further shared that working with The Sun, the media’s Remembrance Day coverage is always updated. Newspapers in London were choosing photos to publish on the front page when the Sussex couple strategically released their photos online.
“I know that is what Meghan and Harry like to do. They like to time these stunts. Why not go in private? There was absolutely no need to release these photos and overshadow the Queen on her big day,” Wotton argued regarding the couple’s photo op.
Harry’s trusted biographer, Angela Levin, agreed with Wootton’s comments, saying that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s photos were ‘extremely phony.’
The royal pair visited the Los Angeles National Cemetary, where they laid bouquets for two wartime heroes and was photographed by a professional they hired.
Upon publishing the pictures, the couple was immediately accused of a PR stunt. Levin revealed her feelings towards the photos, saying that the two used the concrete tombstones as props to create an impression.
TV personality Piers Morgan who has a personal row with the couple has gone on air and called the two a failure of the royal family, as well as describing them as horrible for using Remembrance Day as a PR stunt.
Immediately critics of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle took on to Twitter and voiced out their own opinions on the two.
There were also many that came to the couple’s aide, pointing out that both Prince Harry and Meghan Markle had no choice to celebrate Remembrance Day in their own way as their request to have the royal firm denied a wreath laid on their behalf at the Cenotaph.
It was also reported that the Queen was not a part of the decision to deny Harry and Meghan a chance to have a wreath laid at the Cenotaph.
Apparently, the orders came from another high ranking official in the Palace.
Prince Harry is, reportedly, ‘very sad’ about the whole event. Meghan, on the other hand, is trying to revamp their image after the disastrous PR stunt.
