Harry and Meghan’s Popularity Decline Amidst Complaints Sparks Concern
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been facing a decline in their popularity following the launch of Sussex.com, with many Americans expressing their disapproval of what they perceive as constant complaints from the couple.
In an attempt to regain lost ground, Harry and Meghan have been working tirelessly to rebuild their image after consolidating their brand under Sussex.com.
Their efforts have been evident, as they have been actively participating in various events, from movie premieres to glamorous galas, as well as Invictus engagements, since unveiling their rebranding initiative.
Notably, Meghan even introduced a new coat of arms as part of the rebranding process.
Recent developments have shed light on a potentially challenging time for the royal family, as it was revealed on February 5th that Prince Charles is battling cancer.
The news broke via a tweet from the BBC at 1:01 pm London time, which coincided with 5 am in Montecito, where Harry and Meghan reside.
Speculations suggest that the couple might have been informed about Charles' health condition late on February 4th, prompting them to swiftly update Sussex.com ahead of the public announcement.
On February 6th, Prince Harry made a brief visit to the UK, where he had a short meeting with his father, Charles, lasting between 12 to 30 minutes, depending on various reports.
The encounter, which took place over a span of 45 minutes from Harry's arrival to Charles's departure, was not initiated by Charles, who had to delay his helicopter departure to Sandringham to accommodate the meeting.
Harry's overnight flight from California likely aimed to address concerns such as his lack of royal-level security, a matter brought to light in the Ravik judgment draft released on February 1st, although not publicly disclosed until later in the month.
Despite initial speculations about Harry's potential return to a temporary royal role to support the monarchy during a period of transition, palace aides have refuted any possibility of his reinstatement.
Criticism towards Harry and Meghan has been mounting, with royal author Angela Levin highlighting growing discontent, even among Americans, towards the couple's perceived hypocrisy and constant grievances.
Levin emphasized that Americans prefer individuals who exhibit a proactive attitude rather than resorting to blame games, especially when directed towards the revered royal family.
The couple's diminishing popularity was underscored by their portrayal in a South Park episode last year, where they were subject to ridicule and mockery.
Levin further criticized Harry and Meghan for their alleged hypocrisy, citing instances where they sought privacy while actively engaging in public appearances at lower-tier events solely for publicity.
The ongoing victim narrative perpetuated by the couple has seemingly worn thin on many, with Levin asserting that Americans value hard work, humility, and perseverance, qualities she believes Harry and Meghan lack.
Levin's observations align with a prevailing sentiment among many Americans, who prioritize practical concerns over celebrity gossip.
The majority of Americans are more preoccupied with everyday challenges like financial stability and housing security, rather than focusing on the affairs of a former actress and a royal figure who have fallen out of favor.
The couple's insistence on maintaining their titles, coupled with what critics view as a lack of genuine effort and an overreliance on their past status, has further alienated them from a significant portion of the American public.
