Tyler Perry Takes Private Jet to Visit Harry and Meghan: Online Backlash Ensues
Tyler Perry, the renowned actor and filmmaker, recently made headlines when he reportedly took a 20-minute private jet worth $125 million to Los Angeles before landing in Santa Barbara, where he allegedly met with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle.
However, this weekend rendezvous did not sit well with online users, who took to social media to express their disapproval.
One Twitter user sarcastically commented, “Tyler Perry made an emergency flight in his private jet to visit Meghan and Harry at home for two hours.
Hopefully, he's convinced them to stay away from the coronation.”
Another user chimed in, stating, “Apparently first Meghan rescued Harry, then Harry rescued Meghan, then Tyler Perry rescued both of them.
These two watch way too much Disney.
Always playing damsels in distress.”
Critics also questioned the financial implications of the meeting, with one user suggesting, “And Tyler is going to what, pay the mortgage now?
They're scrambling and no one else wants to help.
They'll need a free jet if they go to the coronation and no doubt free security and free rent soon here in the states.
Their brand has sailed to the South Pole and sunk the boat.”
Amidst the online backlash, some users doubted the authenticity of the meeting, claiming that Tyler Perry actually visited Oprah Winfrey instead.
One user remarked, “Surely Meganut told Uncle Tyler she was setting his house, yes his house, on fire.
He had to come.”
These skeptics believed that Harry and Meghan were once again being dishonest about their interactions.
Contrary to these speculations, Tyler Perry himself clarified that he had never met the couple before they moved into his home.
In a recent interview, Meghan Markle acknowledged this fact, stating, “I'd never met him before.”
However, she mentioned that Perry had expressed his willingness to assist them, saying, “He'd always be there if she needed anything.”
In December of last year, Tyler Perry revealed that he was honored to be asked by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle to be the godfather of their daughter, Lilibet.
However, he made it clear that he would not be able to attend a christening ceremony in the UK with the royals.
Perry explained his decision, stating, “I didn't want to do all of that in the church with them and figure it all out.”
Instead, he proposed a private ceremony in California.
Reflecting on the moment he was asked to be Lilibet's godfather, Perry shared, “They were pretty serious on the phone, and I'm like, okay, what's going on?
And they said, well, we'd like for you to be Lily's godfather.
I had to take a minute to take that in, and I thought I'd be honored, absolutely honored.”
However, after considering the implications, Perry conveyed his preference for a private ceremony rather than a traditional royal affair.
While Tyler Perry's recent visit to Harry and Meghan sparked controversy online, it is evident that the couple values his support and friendship.
Despite the criticism, Perry remains a significant figure in their lives, offering assistance and guidance when needed.
As the story unfolds, it will be interesting to see how these relationships continue to evolve and what role Perry will ultimately play in the lives of the Sussexes.
