Harry and Meghan’s Controversial Photo Sparks Outrage on Remembrance Day
In a bid to honor service personnel on Remembrance Day and Veterans Day, Harry and Meghan shared a photo on the Archibald Foundation website.
The couple expressed their gratitude towards service members worldwide, acknowledging the sacrifices they have made and their embodiment of duty and service.
They also took the opportunity to highlight the organizations they work with that support veterans and military families, including the Invictus Games Foundation, The Mission Continues, Team Rubicon, Scotty's Little Soldiers, and The Greatest Generations Foundation.
However, this gesture from the Duke and Duchess of Sussex did not go unnoticed by their critics.
Royal fans were quick to point out that the photo used was an old one from the Invictus Games in April.
Critics, such as Sanchez and Cora, accused Harry and Meghan of using any opportunity for self-promotion and claimed that their loyalty lies solely with financial gain.
The backlash intensified as fans expressed their disappointment and labeled the couple as frauds.
One particularly disgruntled fan criticized Harry and Meghan, calling them offensive and messy.
The fan expressed frustration at their involvement in military events, questioning why such events tolerate their presence when the country fought against having royalty.
Speculation arose that the use of the fake photo indicated a complete split between the couple, while others believed it was yet another attempt to compete with the royal family.
Meanwhile, Prince Charles and Princess Diana paid tribute to the armed forces ahead of Remembrance Sunday by updating their social media profiles.
The couple changed their profile pictures to one taken during their attendance at the Festival of Remembrance at the Royal Albert Hall in 2018.
The image showed them standing solemnly in the royal box, proudly wearing poppies.
King Charles and the Queen Consort also followed suit, adopting a similar approach on their social media pages.
In contrast, Prince Harry's wreath, laid on Remembrance Day, was removed from the poppy at a factory in Richmond, London.
The factory, established a century ago to commemorate fallen armed force members, decided to remove Harry's wreath along with all duplicates.
This action is seen as another indication of the Duke of Sussex being distanced from his royal life since stepping down from his senior role and relocating to the United States.
It should be noted that in 2020, Harry had requested the Royal Family to lay a wreath on his behalf, but his request was denied.
This denial further highlights the growing divide between Harry and the royal family.
The controversy surrounding Harry and Meghan's photo choice has once again fueled the ongoing debate about their actions and intentions.
While some argue that they are simply trying to remain relevant, others question their authenticity and commitment to noble causes.
As the public watches these events unfold, it remains to be seen how this latest controversy will impact the couple's public image and future endeavors.
