The nomination of Prince Harry for the esteemed Pat Tilghman Award has ignited a firestorm of controversy.<\/p>\n
Reports from a blind item on CNN suggest that Disney is reevaluating the Espy Award bestowed upon Harry, citing concerns over his alleged tampering with evidence.<\/p>\n
Given Disney’s significant stake in ESPN, which stands at 80%, this development could sway their final decision.<\/p>\n
However, beyond these allegations, a broader debate rages on regarding whether Harry truly merits such an honor.<\/p>\n
Critics vehemently argue that Prince Harry’s recognition for his service is unwarranted, pointing to his perceived abandonment of charitable endeavors as a key factor.<\/p>\n
They highlight instances where he reportedly turned down opportunities to assist organizations like the LA of People, indicating a lack of genuine dedication to service.<\/p>\n
Drawing parallels, skeptics liken honoring him for service to commending him as a stellar brother or son despite his shortcomings in those roles.<\/p>\n
They criticize his neglect of responsibilities towards the Royal Marines and subsequent portrayal of himself as a victim when faced with consequences.<\/p>\n
Renowned royal commentator Angela Levin has underscored the significance of the military in Harry’s life but also raised questions about his actions.<\/p>\n
Notably, she pointed out his failure to fulfill obligations when required, suggesting a desire for the prestige associated with military service without shouldering the associated duties.<\/p>\n
Levin’s insights shed light on a narrative that has largely escaped scrutiny in the media, highlighting a potential gap in coverage surrounding Harry’s past decisions and behaviors.<\/p>\n
Interestingly, a curious link emerges between the Tilghman Foundation and Meghan Markle, Harry’s wife.<\/p>\n
Marie Tilghman Shenton, widow of Pat Tilghman, has remarried and now resides in Chicago.<\/p>\n
She co-founded the Pat Tilghman Foundation and currently serves on its board alongside her second husband, Joe Shenton.<\/p>\n
Connections extend further as Marie attended the same fundraising event for Lurie Children’s Hospital in 2023 as Genevieve Hillis, a close associate of Hill, who operates as a conservative lobbyist.<\/p>\n
The intertwining paths of these individuals in the relatively small city of Chicago hint at potential intersections in their professional and social circles.<\/p>\n
Marie’s background as a successful entrepreneur, speaker, and activist, coupled with her alma mater being UC Santa Barbara, presents intriguing parallels with attributes that could benefit Markle’s personal brand.<\/p>\n
Notably, Marie previously ran a children’s clothing store akin to the Birchbox model, a business concept that piqued Markle’s interest.<\/p>\n
Markle’s trademark filing for Tic-Tots, featuring children’s apparel, suggests a venture into curated box sales, aligning with Marie’s former business approach.<\/p>\n
The possibility of the Pat Tilghman Foundation receiving grants from the Archul Foundation aligns with Markle’s strategy of bolstering her brand’s credibility through associations with respected figures like Marie Tilghman.<\/p>\n
In a statement, ESPN clarified their decision to honor Prince Harry for his tireless efforts in leveraging sports to positively impact the veteran community, particularly through the Invictus Games.<\/p>\n
Despite this rationale, a petition has emerged urging ESPN to reconsider their choice, citing controversies surrounding Harry that cast doubt on his suitability for such a prestigious accolade.<\/p>\n
Allegations of evidence tampering and perceived lapses in fulfilling charitable commitments have fueled skepticism about Harry’s alignment with the values embodied by the Pat Tilghman Award.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
