Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have faced criticism from Americans who accuse them of trying to emulate an American royal family.

The backlash came after the couple released a new video promoting the impact of their actual foundation, which has experienced a significant decline in funding compared to its initial launch.

The video, embedded on the foundation’s website as part of its 28-page impact report for 2022-23, was released shortly after Kensington Palace shared footage of the Duchess of Cambridge volunteering at a baby bank with her children.

Some speculate that the timing of the video release was intentional.

The discussion about the video on TalkTV’s YouTube channel led to strong reactions from viewers.

One person commented, “Why are they trying to act like an American royal family?

We don’t have that here, nor do we want that here.

Please come pick up these horrible people.”

Another viewer responded, “That’s going to be a solid no, absolutely not.

Seriously, you can keep them.

They’re not welcome over here.”

Yet another accused Meghan of being jealous of Princess Kate, asking, “How can she ever compete with our beautiful future queen?”

During an interview with Vanessa Feltz, royal expert Emily Andrews raised questions about the timing of the video release.

She stated, “I think the issue here that has perhaps raised eyebrows is the timing.

Kate’s lovely video, where she took George, Louis, and Charlotte to a baby bank last month to volunteer and pick presents for children, was released yesterday.

Normally, Archule releases their video in January, but this year they’re releasing it in December.

So, people are saying, well, if Kate can use her children to get such good publicity, Harry and Meghan can play that game too.”

The one-minute video clip showcases the couple hugging veterans, taking photos with supporters, and packing bags for schoolgirls in Nigeria.

The impact report emphasizes their commitment to a simple yet profound mission: to show up and do good.

The criticism aimed at Prince Harry and Meghan Markle reflects the ongoing debate about their role and influence as public figures.

While some Americans perceive their actions as an attempt to establish an American royal family, others reject this notion and express their discontent with the couple.

The timing of the video release has also sparked speculation, with comparisons drawn to the positive publicity garnered by the Duchess of Cambridge.
