The royal couple Prince Harry and Meghan Markle did not attend the 95th Academy Awards in Los Angeles.
That decision was made by Prince Harry and Meghan Markle as a strategy in line with their status in the United States, according to a public relations expert, Carla Speight, the absence of the royal couple at the Oscars was a wise decision, she said:
“It made very little sense for Harry and Meghan to be at the Oscars. Their documentary wasn’t nominated, it didn’t make sense for them to attend.”
The absence of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex has been interpreted as a sign that the couple is focused on their new life in the United States, away from the British royal family and the film world, the expert also said:
“Meghan is not currently working as an actress and I don’t think Harry has any plans to do so either, although they have recently been media protagonists.”
The expert explained that the royal couple had none of the usual reasons for attending the awards.
“Celebrities go to the awards for three reasons: they’ve either been nominated, they’re networking or they have a project they want to plug. Harry and Meghan don’t have any of those reasons for being there, so it’s not surprising they weren’t there.”
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s absence at the Oscars follows their appearance on an episode of South Park, in which the couple were teased.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex‘s appearance at meaningless public events could be used for more mockery on networks and by the media, so the royal couple will likely think twice before attending public events in the future.
