Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been branded “ultimate hypocrites” after skipping an important family event in the UK to embark on a trip to Colombia. The Duke of Sussex, who notably did not attend his uncle’s funeral in the UK, was seen arriving in Bogotá despite the country’s reputation for being a dangerous environment.
GB News host Patrick Christys expressed his frustration, stating, “Prince Harry is missing his own uncle’s funeral in the UK because of security concerns. Instead, he’s taking his wife to the cocaine-fuelled, gang-warfare, murdering hotspot of Colombia.”
Adding to the criticism, GB News presenter Emma Webb remarked, “You don’t say. Maybe Harry should be paying the reparations in Colombia for all of the cocaine that he’s used over the years.” Businessman Adam Brook also weighed in, commenting, “He [Harry] is as hypocritical as they come and she [Meghan] is one massive diva.”
The controversy deepened as Labour Minister Bill Rammell joined the discussion, highlighting the dangers of Colombia. “As a minister, I went to Colombia three times, and I only went with protection officers because it’s the most dangerous country in the world. And to compare safety in the UK to Colombia is just hogwash,” Rammell exclaimed.
The criticism comes amid ongoing debates about Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s decisions and priorities, with many questioning their judgment in choosing to travel to Colombia while missing a significant family event in the UK. The couple’s trip, intended to focus on child welfare initiatives, has instead sparked a heated debate over their actions and the implications of their choices.
