Critics argue the video undermines the dignity of the monarchy and is the latest in a string of tone-deaf moves from the self-exiled royals.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been blasted by a commentator over a controversial video in which the couple are seen twerking, calling their behaviour “insane” and demanding they be stripped of their royal titles. Washington-based foreign policy expert Nile Gardiner, who frequently weighs in on the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, wrote on X: “This is insane. The Queen would have been appalled. Meghan and Harry’s royal titles should be removed as soon as possible.”
Royal biographer Angela Levin also weighed in, saying: “I’m appalled too. Just awful.” The clip, shared by Meghan to mark the fourth birthday of daughter Lilibet, has reignited fierce debate over the couple’s continued use of their royal titles – despite stepping back from official duties in early 2020. Critics argue the video undermines the dignity of the monarchy and is the latest in a string of tone-deaf moves from the self-exiled royals.
