Meghan Markle Skips Remembrance Sunday Event, Fearing She Would Be Booed: ‘Knows She Isn’t Loved in Britain’
Reports suggest Meghan Markle skipped Remembrance Sunday commemorations in Britain due to concerns about public reception and potential booing. The Duchess of Sussex reportedly chose to avoid the event to prevent negative headlines from overshadowing the solemn occasion.
Why it matters
The ongoing tension between the Sussexes and the British public remains a significant topic in royal and celebrity news.
Mega Meghan Markle chose to stay away from Britain's Remembrance Sunday commemorations over fears she would be booed by the public, according to a new report.
While her husband, Prince Harry , 42, traveled to Brackley, Northamptonshire, on Sunday, November 8, to pay tribute to fallen military personnel, the Duchess of Sussex, 45, was noticeably absent.
According to royal insiders who spoke to Rob Shuter 's Naughty But Nice Substack on Monday, November 9, Meghan deliberately avoided the occasion because she was concerned about the reception she might receive in Britain.
"Meghan is smarter than Harry when it comes to reading the room. She knows she isn't loved in Britain, and Remembrance Sunday was not the occasion to test that," an insider claimed.
The source suggested that Meghan was particularly concerned about the possibility of negative publicity overshadowing the solemn occasion.
