On their recent trip to Australia, Prince Harry’s sudden departure from an event where Meghan Markle was the star raised eyebrows among onlookers. While Meghan charmed the audience during her speech, Harry’s quick exit without a word left the guests scratching their heads.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex are touring Australia. This is their first visit since they left their official duties six years ago. While their visit sees Meghan Markle in her element, there is one incident that has left fans unconvinced.
Fans have pointed out Prince Harry’s hasty exit from an event that highlighted his wife, Meghan Markle.
Prince Harry made a hasty departure from Meghan Markle’s event
As the Duchess of Sussex attended a 90-minute speech at Sydney’s InterContinental Hotel near Coogee Beach, attendees revealed how Prince Harry seemed a little distant. According to The Times, Prince Harry made a brief appearance at the event, where he sat next to Marcus Anderson, the director of the club chain and a close friend of the couple.
But his departure left the guests confused.
Guests say the meeting was unusual
One guest told the outlet: “It was the most bizarre thing. People were taking pictures of Meghan on stage, and Harry rushed out. Very quickly. He didn’t wait for her to come off the stage, he didn’t collect her from the stage. It was really weird.”The same guest added: “I sat there, and everyone kept talking about how handsome he was and how great he was, but he almost ran out.
“It was very strange.”The Duke’s hasty exit was in stark contrast to the attention his wife had received throughout the evening. The Sydney event summed up how the Sussexes have turned their royal status into a commercial enterprise since leaving official duties six years ago in pursuit of “financial freedom”.When Meghan last visited Australia in 2018 as a working royal, she was performing duties on behalf of Queen Elizabeth II.Meanwhile, the couple could return to Britain this summer before Birmingham hosts Harry’s Invictus Games next year.
