Harry and Meghan’s New York Trip Fails to Make an Impact
Harry and Meghan, representing the Archwell Foundation, recently attended the Project Healthy Minds event in Hudson Yards, New York City.
However, their visit did not receive the attention they had hoped for.
According to a close source, the couple is reportedly upset about their inability to attract a large audience during their latest visit to the city.
As the Sussexes arrived and departed from the Hudson Yards area, there was no crowd to greet them.
When locals were asked about their thoughts on the couple being in the city, many expressed indifference.
Despite several black SUVs parked outside the venue, most tourists and locals seemed unfazed by the presence of the royals.
In May, Meghan and Harry visited New York to attend the Miss Foundation 50th Anniversary Gala, which was marred by a near-catastrophic car chase with paparazzi.
This time, however, their security was much tighter, and they managed to enter and leave the venue without much notice.
A photo from the event shows a relatively small audience, mostly consisting of press.
It appears that there were not even 50 people present.
Critics have questioned the necessity of their trip, considering the resources involved.
Flying from California, using seven SUVs, and buying new outfits seems excessive for such a small gathering.
Some argue that they could have easily conducted their 90-minute breakout session via Zoom, which would have been more environmentally friendly.
Additionally, they could have been home with their children, whom they claim are of utmost importance to them.
The New York City visit was seen as a potential big comeback for Harry and Meghan, but it fell short of expectations.
According to royal expert Neil Sean, the auditorium where they spoke had many empty seats facing them.
In contrast, Prince William received a warm welcome during his visit to the city, with people showing genuine excitement to see him.
It must be disheartening for the couple to see that they are unable to fill a room like their royal counterparts.
During the event, Meghan's behavior caught the attention of many.
She appeared visibly distressed while listening to emotional stories but quickly regained her composure and started flashing a bright smile when the camera was not focused on her.
This sudden change in demeanor surprised Carson Daly and led critics to point out that Meghan repeatedly emphasized phrases like “me,” “myself,” and “I” during her speech.
This self-centered approach was viewed as thoughtless, particularly in the context of such a somber occasion where other parents were experiencing tremendous grief.
Body language expert Judy James observed that Harry and Meghan sometimes appear slightly lost at events.
While their public displays of affection were initially seen as refreshing and genuine, they now seem to be reconsidering their approach.
James noted that they might have realized their mistake and the need to adopt a more reserved demeanor.
In conclusion, Harry and Meghan's trip to New York City did not go as planned.
Despite representing a charitable foundation, they failed to attract significant attention and faced criticism for their perceived self-centeredness.
The couple may need to reassess their public approach and consider the impact of their actions on those around them.
