Meghan Markle and Prince Harry's 'disturbing' nightmare as expert begs 'move on'
Meghan Markle and Prince Harry have been slammed for their response to the Los Angeles wildfires and their statement against Meta - but a royal expert has insisted the couple have done nothing wrong
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have faced intense backlash following their recent actions. After being photographed hugging victims of the devastating Los Angeles wildfires, the couple was harshly labelled "disaster tourists" by actress Justine Bateman, who accused them of a "repulsive photo op".
The wildfires have ravaged neighbourhoods near the couple's home, leaving many without homes or belongings. Despite volunteering at the Pasadena Community Centre and meeting with victims, the couple's actions were met with criticism.
Meghan also postponed the premiere of her Netflix series, "With Love, Meghan", due to the wildfires, but was cruelly branded attention-seeking. Furthermore, the couple faced criticism for a statement on their website, accusing Meta, the owner of Facebook and Instagram, of "allowing more abuse and normalising hate speech" after it scrapped third-party fact-checking and loosened content moderation.

Bond told the Mirror, "Harry and Meghan must have expected much of the criticism they received after their accusations about the rest of the Royal Family."
"But I find it disturbing that almost everything and anything they now do is still criticised, in my view quite unfairly. They could have stayed holed up in their Montecito haven while so much of California burned."
"Instead they went out and offered what help and support they could. Meghan could have let her new show go to air as planned, but she either instigated or fully supported the Netflix announcement that it would be postponed. Whatever they do is dismissed as cynical by someone or another, which must be dispiriting."
Jennie believes that Harry and Meghan have recently been using their global reach for good, getting involved in causes exploring the dangers of social media - and it's now time for their critics to "move on".
Some critics branded the couple 'disaster tourists'She added: "They have a platform, and they are using it. Their criticism of the removal of safeguards by Facebook strikes me as a perfect use of the influence they have."
"The danger posed by the internet is something they have been actively campaigning on for some time, and their criticism of Mark Zuckerberg is totally consistent with the stand they have taken. Good for them, someone needs to speak out about the potential dangers of the internet. So, I say give Harry and Meghan a break. They haven't attacked the Royal family for some time. What's done is done. Time to move on."
After claims emerged that Harry and Meghan's visit to a relief hub in Pasadena was nothing more than a photo opportunity, a source close to the couple has reportedly told Page Six that such suggestions are 'offensive'. They clarified: "It's offensive to Meghan and Harry that anybody would think this is merely a photo opportunity."
Moreover, pointing out that Meghan hails from Los Angeles, the source conveyed: "Meghan was born and raised in Los Angeles, so this is, and always will be, home to her."

Meanwhile, Pasadena Mayor Victor Gordo lauded the Sussexes, noting their enthusiasm to lend support.
Highlighting their impact on local spirits, he remarked, "They really buoyed the spirits of the first responders. We visited the command post at the Rose Bowl, and people were very happy to see them" and commended them as "great people" with "great personalities."
