Prince Harry and Meghan Markle: Are They Putting Money Before Family?

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle attended the 2022 Ripple of Hope Awards gala in New York City on Tuesday, November 6th, and as expected, they were the centre of attention.

Reporters shouted questions at them as they walked the red carpet, with one question in particular catching everyone's ears.

“Harry, are you putting money before family?”

a journalist repeated.

The estranged prince, who was holding his wife's hand, brushed off the criticism while another asked, “Are you harming your family Harry?”

Throwing up his free hand at reporters, Harry laughed and ignored the question.

One online user, who also attended the Ripple of Hope Awards, shared that Meghan's reaction going to the car after the event was cold fury at Prince Harry, when the cameras aren't on them.

Taking on Reddit, the netizens shared a story.

The user claimed that there were only three actual real press and four paid paparazzi at the event.

They overheard the paparazzi talking on the phone, informing someone on which entrance the duo would enter from, and that they didn't want to be pictured leaving.

The user also claimed to have talked to some Sussex squad members, one of whom happily showed them a pay stub from one of the shell companies Harry and Meghan use for payment.

A man named Noel Phillips, who does some pro-Sussex British media, was also present at the event and claimed that while William and Kate were in Jamaica, he broke the story about people not liking them.

He further stated that he was communicating to the Jamaican government when the late Queen contacted his boss directly and told him to back off.

When Harry and Meghan arrived, 50 minutes late, there were cheers from the crowd, but mostly boos.

Someone even called Harry a traitor, and a couple of people asked where his Nazi uniform was.

The user also claimed that at the Queen's funeral, King Charles III told Harry that he could take a lump sum of money and go overseas forever or come back alone in 2023.

A clip posted to Twitter by ITV journalist Fred Dimbleby showed a mixed response to their arrival, with a sea of phone cameras filming them and some whooping with others excitedly pointing at Harry.

However, a seething bloke shouted, “What do you think about destroying the royal family, Harry?”

alongside his unanswered questions.

The heckler fumed, “Meghan, you've destroyed the royal family.”

The controversial pair did not respond to the question and walked into the ceremony to collect their reward for campaigning against structural racism and honouring mental health issues.

Once inside the prestigious awards location, the Sussexes were free from the chaotic shouting and gave an interview talking about mental health.

Meghan used the opportunity to speak about her experiences of feeling suicidal while trapped as a working royal with Buckingham Palace.

It marked the first public appearance from the Sussexes since the explosive trailers for their upcoming Netflix documentary were released.

It is no secret that Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been in the news for their controversial decisions and actions.

From stepping down as senior members of the royal family to their explosive interviews, they have been making headlines for all the wrong reasons.

The recent incident at the Ripple of Hope Awards gala has once again put them in the spotlight.
