Prince Harry and Meghan Markle recently attended Kevin Costner’s charity event, but it seems that their presence was not entirely welcomed.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were among the celebrities in attendance at the 1805 Live for 2023 fundraiser, hosted by the 68-year-old Yellowstone actor at his beachfront estate in Santa Barbara, California on September 22nd.
Unlike the other guests, Harry and Meghan discreetly entered through the back door.
Kevin Costner, who is an ambassador for 1805, an organization providing financial aid and mental health support to first responders, was honored with an award during the event.
As Meghan took to the stage with white knuckles, she grabbed the microphone and handed the award to Costner, while her husband directed the gentleman holding the mic to give it to her.
The co-founder and CEO of 1805, Richard Weston-Smith, who is married to Kristen Cavendish, another co-founder and CEO of the organization, was also present.
It is worth mentioning that Meghan attempted to take the microphone from Cavendish, but her efforts were unsuccessful.
Sources reveal that Meghan’s behavior at the event was erratic, possibly due to her personal struggles.
Backstage, the couple was seen conversing with Costner and senior police and firefighting officials.
However, it was evident that Costner was not pleased with their unexpected presence.
In fact, he did not mention or thank them in his speech, indicating his dissatisfaction with having to accommodate them last minute.
According to insiders, Costner maintained a cold attitude towards Meghan throughout the event, as she was not initially invited.
This may explain why Meghan seemed confused during the award ceremony script.
It appears that the couple’s intention was to use the event as an opportunity to gain attention and take selfies with high-profile individuals, giving the impression of having influential connections.
However, their attempts to establish relationships with elites have been largely unsuccessful.
The only notable connection they have is with Portia de Rossi, who is not considered A-list, but rather known as Alan’s wife.
Even that relationship raises doubts.
It is worth noting that there is only one picture of the couple with Costner, and the actor’s body language suggests a clear distance and reluctance to engage with them.
This is not the first time that Costner has encountered such behavior.
He previously had a similar experience with Amber Heard, and it seems he recognized Meghan and Harry as individuals seeking attention rather than genuine friendship.
In a leaked video, Meghan can be seen attempting to touch Costner while he was engaged in conversation with her husband.
Yet, Costner completely ignored her efforts, leaving her feeling humiliated and turning to converse with another man.
In conclusion, Meghan Markle’s uninvited presence at Kevin Costner’s charity event caused discomfort and awkward encounters.
The couple’s attempts to gain attention and establish connections with high-profile individuals were met with cold indifference.
Costner’s body language and behavior towards Meghan indicated his lack of interest in engaging with her.
This incident further adds to the growing skepticism surrounding the couple’s motives and actions.
