Prince Harry and Meghan Markle mocked for disrespecting late grandfather Philip
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle know they will face serious consequences after missing Prince Philip’s memorial service.

“No comment from Archwell. Nothing. Not even a word from their followers on various social media accounts.”
She added: “There was a lot of criticism over Prince Harry’s absence from his grandfather’s memorial service. But no reason was given as to why he chose not to attend. Harry himself.
“A few weeks ago he asked his spokesperson to say he wasn’t going. That was it.
“What a missed opportunity not to bring Meghan and the children to join the extended royal family, European cousins and of course Archie’s contemporaries.
“Their appearance would not have distracted the Queen. It was her day and no one could take that away from her, not even her favorite son, the Duke of York, who guided her to her seat. .

“Harry must have known that would look irritable and rude. And if he hadn’t, Meghan would have.
“If it was a sharp snub to the whole royal family and it went wrong.
