Prince Harry is set to travel back to the United Kingdom on May 8th to celebrate the tenth anniversary of the Invictus Games. The event is close to the Prince’s heart, as it recognizes wounded, injured, and sick service women and men. Despite the good intentions, royal expert Paul Burrell claims Harry will likely be booed upon his return.
Paul Burrell, the former butler to the late Princess Diana and current royal expert, explained that Prince Harry’s actions have alienated the British public, leading to disapproval from most royal followers. In this aspect, Burrell recalls Harry’s previous booing at St. Paul’s Cathedral in 2022, suggesting the public’s perception hasn’t changed for the better since then.
“He is returning to St. Paul’s Cathedral, where he was last booed. The public is still in the same frame of mind; he may well get booed again.”
In addition, Burrell pointed out that Prince Harry’s American residency further distances him from any supportive roles in the UK. Not to mention his estranged relationship with his brother, Prince William, and the countless times Prince Harry has said his wife, Meghan Markle, was mistreated in the monarchy.
