Visiting child amputees while Meghan’s father (Harry’s father in law) has recently undergone an amputation feels, at the very least, discordant with the Sussex humanitarian messaging. Compassion is never misplaced, but context matters. When personal circumstance and public positioning collide so starkly, it complicates the optics — particularly for those already questioning whether these trips are about service or symbolism.

She owes her father nothing. Keep crying. A father that sold her out, said nasty things about her and husband and grandchildren. Keeps ruining to the daily mail. Not sure why you white women are pressed about Meghan and father’s relationship. You are the same one who claims Harry’s family should not speak to him. As Tyler Perry said what Thomas Markle did was unbelievable.

Tyler Perry only knows what Meghan told him. She would say anything for a free private jet trip out of England.

You are so silly because he said, in his own words. “ I saw what her father was doing to her.” Thomas and Charles are failures—people who should never have been allowed to father anyone. Thomas colluding with the Daily Mail before her wedding, being a nuisance, joining in on harassing and insulting her, her husband and children (what did innocent children do). Meanwhile, Meghan’s mother and maternal side have been so dignified, living their lives quietly. Meghan took care of her father, gave him money, as he himself had admitted. But he allowed the stupidity and envy of his silly white daughter to get to him. As I said, I am tired of white women commenting on Meghan. It's always white women. We get it, you're envious of her, despise her because her husband adores her. You're never going to admit it. Spend time with your family instead of focusing on her and being trolls in comment sections. It's been 9 years of abuse. I will never forgive what was done to her, especially when she was pregnant. Move on with your lives. Go and be sycophantic about william and Kate. Harry and Meghan, and their children, are not taxpayer-funded; they owe you all nothing.

They will try anything to have a dig at the Prince and Princess of Wales. In my opinion they can't lick their boots.

Meghan has never shown any interest in sport, other than watching it on a date with Harry. Now she wants to kick a football!! Trying to emulate the Prince and Princess of Wales just makes her look ridiculous.

He’s very jealous of his brother, the future King!!!!!

Harry and Meghan are not involved in a PR war with his family, and it's long past time that the media stop framing things that way. It's unhealthy for that entire family and invites the public to continue to attack Harry and Meghan or his relatives. We should all be hoping for reconciliation. At the end day. this is a family struggling mightily. Harry and Meghan endured leaking and planing of stories by his family and were failed in many ways by the royal family. And members of his family are upset that Harry and Meghan spoke of their experience. Maybe we should be glad that they are doing good work, that they donate their own money to meaningful causes, that the WHO invited them to Jordan (which speaks to the reality that they really are truly engaged in work behind the scenes that is not public), and that they use the attention they know they will receive on causes such as supporting children and families displaced by war and kids stricken with cancer. How the value of these efforts is questioned by anyone is disturbing. They have literally donated hundreds of thousands of their own money to these causes.

There are no PR wars. Harry and Meghan will do anything to stay in the news. If this was just a humanitarian visit, there would not be so many videos and pictures. They are visiting as private citizens. They do Not perform royal duties like Prince William does.

There is no PR war. That's just made up drama from the media and the haters. There is plenty of room on the world stage for both sides to contribute meaningful help and compassion to the world.

At least Meghan covered up this time. For once it seemed to be more about what they did/who they saw than the Meghan fashion show.

Meghan will never let a chance go by to try to upstage any Brit royal. She has a mania for attention. Her father taught her well to spot the camera and give it a smile. I don't think she can help it. Her rivalry with the Royal Family, especially Catherine, is astoundingly omnipresent.

This is such a stupid article. Then again I come to realise Hello plays into an audience of frankly racist, entitled, mean girl white women. Why is the comment section even opened but protected for William and Kate. Despite all of Hello magazine campaign for kindness. They prove once again who their audience is We only need to see your comment section were your audience leave racist comemts about this children, question their existence. Lmaoo the illusion of polls. They are not taxpayer funded so who cares what people think. The polls to me are used to inflate William and Kate. I hope royal audience leave their echo chamber and realise there an audience that saw what you did to a pregnant woman and the racist commentary from 2018, history will never be re written. Shining the light on causes close to their heart is admirable. People outside of the royal chamber understand their quality and invite them. Service is universal, it’s not restricted to being a tax payer funded Royal.

Wonderful to see how well Harry and Meghan are doing. On another note, I cannot help but wonder if it was Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor who made the comment about Archie's skin color? I've wondered if Andrew was jealous of Harry because while Andrew was NOT allowed to marry Koo Stark, an actress, Prince Harry was able to marry an actress, Meghan Markle and the late Queen Elizabeth welcomed Meghan into the family.

I’m so sick and tired of all that hatred of the Sussex’s. If the RF want nothing to do with them, then leave them alone. They can’t have it both ways. They pushed them out but still expect to control them? How does that work. All they wanted to do was serve and do humanitarian work, but not live in the UK; where the Brits hated Meghan. And why? Bc she was black? She did nothing to deserve that. Examine the situation without emotion please and see more clearly.
