Prince Harry and Meghan Markle are set to be honoured for their stance against structural racism in the royal family at the Ripple of Hope gala next month.

This news has been met with mixed reactions, with Fox Business host Ashley Webster jokingly praising the couple's bravery and royal commentator Neil Sean criticising the awards as misguided.

He believes that the award should have been given for their performance on the Oprah Winfrey interview instead.

The event, which is set to take place in New York City, is not without controversy.

Tickets are priced up to £840,000 for guests who want to sit at the main table with the Sussexes.

Royal author Angela Levin warned that the couple is getting too big for their ambitions, while talk TV presenter Mike Graham noted that people are getting fed up with them, even in America.

Earlier this year, several rows of empty seats were seen at the United Nations during Harry's speech to mark Nelson Mandela Day.

The news of the award has raised eyebrows among royal experts and fans alike.

Were the Kennedys honouring the couple for their ugly and vicious treatment of both Harry and Meghan's relatives?

It seemed unconscionable to many.

Furthermore, the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation, which is honouring the couple, has been criticised for its stinginess.

In 2018, the non-profit organisation handed out just $300,000 or £250,000 worth in grants, despite raking in a staggering $43 million in contributions.

Its president Kerry Kennedy was paid $555,000, almost twice what it handed out in grants.

The Harkles will be handed the Ripple of Hope award, previously given to Bill and Hillary Clinton and Archbishop Desmond Tutu.

However, pundits have questioned the sanity of handing such an award to the Montecito chicken whisperers.

Maybe they should also question the Robert F. Kennedy Human Rights Foundation's math skills.

In conclusion, the news of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's award has sparked controversy and mixed reactions.

While some praise the couple's bravery, others question the legitimacy of the award and the organisation behind it.

The hefty price tag for tickets to the event has also drawn criticism.

It remains to be seen how this will affect the couple's relationship with the royal family and their public image.
