Royal Family News: Fans Express Outrage as Harry Snubs Grandparents
Fans quickly fired up social media sharing outrage or irritation that the prince was essentially snubbing his own grandfather’s memorial service. One Twitter user went so far as to call it an “utter disgrace” that the prince would fail to pay respect to his grandfather.
Another Twitter user addressed the duke’s treatment of his grandmother in this, “Prince Harry really is a disgrace, no respect for the Queen whatsoever, and unlikely to see her again!” The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are not without a large following though as many came to the duke’s defense and even praised him for sticking to his guns amid his security issues.
According to the Daily Star, some royals’ fans believe Harry’s decision was because he didn’t want to take attention from the Duke of Edinburgh on the day of his memorial service. One Sussex supporter wrote, “They won’t provide Harry with security so he and his family can be safe in the UK, nor would they let him pay for his own security team but they’re disappointed that he’d opt out of going to a memorial service over there?”
