Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s Acceptance of the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award Sparks Controversy
The decision of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry to accept the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award has caused a stir among royal commentators and fans alike.
The couple was chosen as recipients by Kerry Kennedy, the president of the association, for their stand against structural racism within the institution and monarchy.
However, royal commentator Jenny Bond has described their acceptance of the award as “very brazen.”
She believes that by accepting the award, the Sussexes are taking another dig at the Royal Family and openly declaring that they believe Meghan was treated in a racist way.
Bond added that this public accusation is a huge blow to the Royal Family and called it a “rude presumption.”
Bond also questioned whether the couple should have refused the award or deemed it inappropriate, given the circumstances.
Trending:
She acknowledged that there are limited options when presented with an honorary award, but overall, she finds the situation very sad.
According to Benjamin Smallbrook on Quora, it has been made clear to Harry that if he returns to the Royal Family, it would not be in his best interests to attend the Ripple of Hope Awards in New York.
A journalist at a national newspaper has asked the organizers of the award evening to confirm the attendance of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex on December 6th.
However, the organizers have stated that they are unable to guarantee the attendance of any laureate at their event.
There have been rumors on other sites that Harry will not attend, attributed to their supposed separation.
Secondhand coke on Quora shared that she believes he will not go and that he does not want to go due to big fights surrounding the issue.
She predicts that he is sending Meghan alone and turning to his family for help.
Not attending would send a huge message to the Crown.
Some believe that the couple's acceptance of the award is an attempt to steal the Prince and Princess of Wales' thunder during their visit to Boston.
One Royal fan commented that the Ripple event is meant to outshine the Wales' Earthshot event, and the media have now shifted their attention to the Harkles instead of the real accomplishments of the Earthshot winners.
The Harkles are paying to get awards in celebration of themselves, whereas the Wales' celebrate the achievements of others.
Jenny.au on Quora wrote that the tacky US tabloids will paint Meghan as a hero on par with Volodymyr Zelensky when the duo receives the Kennedy Ripple of Hope award on December 6th.
She believes that Kerry Kennedy's decision to grant the award to the couple is due to a personal grudge and calls it the most horrendously inappropriate and dumb decision a Kennedy has made in 100 years.
This decision will create conflict within the Kennedy clan and tarnish their reputation.
Caroline Kennedy avoided the couple when they visited New York in September 2021.
However, after their departure, the US Ambassador for Australia, Senator Kennedy, hosted former Japanese Crown Princess Maiko at her apartment for a three-hour private meeting.
In conclusion, the acceptance of the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Ripple of Hope Award by Meghan Markle and Prince Harry has caused controversy among royal commentators and fans.
While some see it as a stand against structural racism, others view it as a brazen attack on the Royal Family.
The couple's attendance at the award ceremony is uncertain, and rumors abound as to whether Harry will attend.
Whatever the outcome, this situation has caused conflict and tarnished the reputation of all involved.
