Sussexes’ Latest Pictures from One Young World Summit Spark Controversy

Just days after a senior booking and palace royals released a picture of the Sussexes, Meghan Markle and Prince Harry, another set of images has surfaced.

These pictures capture the couple attending the One Young World Summit for youth leaders in Manchester last month.

In the first photo, Meghan is seen in a stylish red blouse and matching trousers, adorned with a chunky gold ring and earrings.

Standing face-on to the camera, she holds one of Harry's fingers, while he stands behind her, smiling, dressed in a sharp black suit and tie.

This pose bears a resemblance to their 2021 Time magazine photo shoot, where Meghan stood in the center and Harry stood at an angle behind her, his hand resting on her shoulder.

The second image was taken just moments before the summit's opening ceremony.

It shows the couple standing side by side, holding hands, and gazing out at the audience.

These captivating photographs were taken by celebrity photographer Misan Hariman, a friend of the couple who has previously captured images of renowned figures such as Rihanna, Stormzy, Tom Cruise, and Giorgio Armani.

Hariman shared these pictures online recently, shortly after the release of an official portrait featuring the so-called New Fab Four: King Charles, the Queen Consort, the Prince and Princess of Wales.

The term “Fab Four” was previously used to refer to William, Harry, Kate, and Meghan.

However, following the Sussexes' departure from Britain and the Queen's passing last month, the new portrait emphasized that Charles, William, and their wives would now form the core of the royal family.

The Sussexes' photos have caused quite a stir, with royal fans and commentators offering their opinions on the matter.

On Twitter, royal expert Kinsey Schofield shared her thoughts, prompting responses from others.

One user, Applemar, expressed their admiration for the couple, while another user highlighted the contrast between Charles and Camilla's warm reception during their visit to Dunfermline in Scotland and the Sussexes' perceived lack of coordination with other members of the royal family.

While there is no indication that the Sussexes intentionally timed the release of their images to overshadow the King's visit, it does highlight the fact that since their move to the US, their activities have not been aligned with those of other royal family members, resulting in occasional clashes.

As the world marveled at the first official portrait of King Charles alongside Queen Consort Camilla, it became evident that the photograph carried significant symbolism.

The new sovereign is pictured with his son and heir, while a glowing portrait of King George III, the longest-reigning male monarch in British history, looms behind them.

What adds to the photo's intrigue is that it was taken in the middle of the night, on the eve of the Queen's funeral, while our senior royals were preparing to host a grand reception for visiting heads of state, including US President Joe Biden, at Buckingham Palace.

This image conveys a clear message, emphasizing that even during times of personal grief and mourning, the royals remain on duty, exhibiting unwavering self-control.

For them, the late Queen was not only a monarch but also a beloved mother, grandmother, and great-grandmother.

The release of these contrasting photos from the Sussexes and the royal family serves as a reminder that while the monarchy evolves, the duty and responsibilities of its members endure.
