Kate’s Heartwarming Film to Mark Remembrance Receives Praise, While Meghan Faces Criticism at Veterans Day Event
The Duchess of Cambridge, Kate Middleton, has garnered a wave of admiration and praise on social media after featuring in a film commemorating the Royal British Legion centenary.
In the film, Kate stars alongside 10-year-old Cub Scout Emily Edge and veteran Colonel David Blumoby from Italy.
As the joint president of the Scout Association, Kate awarded Emily with a new Scout's Centenary Remembrance badge for her exceptional poppy display at a local church.
This initiative, led by the Duchess, aims to honor 100 years of the Royal British Legion and recognize individuals who actively participate in remembrance activities.
Royal fans took to Twitter to express their admiration for Kate's genuine character and ability to bring out the best in people.
One user highlighted her sincerity and naturalness, which draws people in and allows them to open up.
Another praised her for always shifting the focus onto others, creating beautiful and meaningful conversations.
Many users commented on Kate's love, compassion, and caring nature, describing her as a lovely lady.
The Duchess was also commended for her continuous growth, confidence, and relevance.
Fans wished her, Prince William, and their children well, expressing gratitude for her presence.
The heartfelt conversation between Kate, Emily, and Colonel David Blumoby took place at the Royal Hospital Chelsea earlier this month and was released in a video on Friday.
During the film, Emily shared her knowledge about the Scouts' involvement in wartime efforts, such as assisting with evacuations, fire watches, and harvests.
Kate emphasized the significance of remembrance in society over the past century, while the veteran reflected on his own experiences serving in Italy during World War II.
In contrast, Meghan Markle made headlines for attending a gala event in New York City to celebrate Veterans Day.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were photographed at an army base in New Jersey, where they met with service members from all branches of the military.
They also hosted a luncheon for service members and their spouses.
However, Meghan's presence at the event sparked objections and criticism from some Royal fans.
One disgruntled fan expressed disbelief that US veterans would accept Meghan's involvement, arguing that she is only associated with Prince Harry through marriage and lacks any reason to be part of such events.
The fan further criticized Harry, claiming he had not done anything to deserve the honor bestowed upon him, as he was never on the front lines and was protected throughout his military service.
The fan questioned whether the US community would truly welcome Meghan and Harry's participation.
Adding fuel to the fire, Meghan's choice of attire also received attention.
She wore a black Giorgio Armani faux wrap dress priced at $1,695 (£1,264), made of stretched jersey fabric with a flattering draping and surplus neckline.
The dress, made in Italy, features an A-line silhouette, long sleeves, shoulder pads, and a seamed waist.
Meghan paired it with Giorgio Armani heels, retailing at $675 (£503.50), featuring the brand's signature asymmetrical top-line.
Her three-day wardrobe in NYC, including jewelry, amounted to a significant sum of £54,000.
While Kate's involvement in the remembrance film received overwhelming praise, Meghan's appearance at the Veterans Day event faced criticism and scrutiny.
The stark contrast in public reception highlights the varying perceptions of the two Duchesses and their roles within the royal family.
