Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, have once again stirred up controversy, this time facing intense backlash during a public appearance in Los Angeles. 

Reports suggest that they were booed and heckled by the crowd for allegedly failing to pay tribute to the late Rob Burrow, a beloved figure in the rugby league community.

Rob Burrow, a former Leeds Rhinos player, garnered admiration worldwide for his brave battle against motor neuron disease (MND). His recent passing prompted an outpouring of grief and tributes from across the sports world and beyond. 

However, Harry and Meghan’s silence on the matter has sparked public outrage, further straining their already contentious relationship with both British and American audiences.

Videos circulating on social media capture the uncomfortable moment as the couple tried to maintain their composure amidst the hostile reception. Witnesses reported palpable anger among the crowd, with many expressing disappointment at the Sussexes’ perceived insensitivity.

This incident is not an isolated one. Harry and Meghan have faced public disapproval on multiple occasions in recent months. During a visit to Canada earlier this year, they encountered similar hostility, with hecklers disrupting their appearances.

Rob Burrow’s battle with MND touched the hearts of many, and his passing left a significant void in the rugby league community. While public figures like Prince William and Kate Middleton paid heartfelt tributes to Burrow, Harry and Meghan’s silence has been seen as a glaring omission. Many interpret their failure to acknowledge Burrow’s passing as a lack of empathy and respect, further fueling public anger and disappointment.

Critics argue that as prominent figures who often advocate for compassion and humanitarianism, the Sussexes’ failure to pay tribute to Burrow is surprising and disappointing. 

This latest incident adds to a growing list of controversies surrounding Harry and Meghan, who have been accused of seeking publicity and leveraging their royal connections while criticizing the royal family.

From their high-profile exit from royal duties to their media ventures, the couple has remained in the spotlight, albeit not always in a positive light. Meghan’s recent attempt to take center stage at the Hollywood Christmas parade was also met with booing and heckling.

The backlash in Los Angeles serves as a stark reminder of the challenges Harry and Meghan face as they navigate their post-royal life. Their silence on Rob Burrow’s passing has only intensified public scrutiny and criticism. 

As they continue to engage in public and media activities, the couple will need to address these growing concerns if they hope to rebuild their public image and regain the trust of their supporters.
