Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the California-based couple, are facing criticism once again, this time for their choice of Christmas card.
The couple’s official holiday card has been labeled as “rubbish” by one critic who expressed disappointment over the absence of their two-year-old daughter, Lilibet, and four-year-old son, Archie.
David Bull, a talk TV host and co-deputy leader of Reform UK, voiced his disapproval, stating that the card seemed to scream “me, me, me.”
Bull agreed with American royal expert Kinsey Schofield, who joined the discussion from Phoenix, Arizona, and emphasized that one of the best aspects of royal Christmas cards is getting to see the children.
Prince Harry has consistently expressed his desire to protect his children from the public eye, citing concerns about online harm and the normalization of hatred and harm in the world.
However, Schofield explained to Bull and his co-host that the couple had finally released their holiday card, but it received a lackluster response from fans.
She noted that many royal watchers eagerly anticipate these cards each year as a milestone to witness the growth of the adorable royal babies.
Even American media outlets commented on the absence of Lily and Archie, expressing curiosity about how they have grown.
Bull concurred, describing the card as self-centered and disappointing, stating, “if you ask me, it’s rubbish.”
In the midst of this controversy, Prince Harry and Meghan are expected to celebrate Christmas at home in California.
They recently shared with E!
News that they are savoring every moment of creating new traditions.
The exclusion of Lilibet and Archie from the Christmas card has ignited a debate about the couple’s approach to privacy and their responsibility as public figures.
