Prince Harry and Meghan Markle ignore 'royal guidelines' with latest move ahead of UK visit


Prince Harry and Meghan Markle ignore 'royal guidelines' with latest move ahead of UK visit

Ahead of Prince Harry's trip to the UK, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's latest move has raised eyebrows.

As Harry prepares for his solo visit to the UK next week, he and Meghan Markle have shared a statement on the upcoming US presidential election.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex's Archewell Foundation celebrated National Voter Registration Day by encouraging Americans to register to vote ahead of the November 5 election.

Public relations expert Renae Smith said the move seemed to ignore traditional royal customs, saying they did “whatever they wanted, without regard to royal guidelines or customs.”

Talking with Express.co.uk Renae said that “from a public relations perspective, his statement on the US election will probably not have a significant impact, either positive or negative.”

Recent reports suggest that Harry may not meet his father, King Charles, during this trip.

Royal expert Rebecca English said Daily Mail“The King and Queen have a big engagement in Scotland, on Saturday (September 28) they will be going to the Scottish Parliament. So it is a very important event. Harry's event is on a Monday and, although no one has said yet, I have been told that he will most likely be there. [King Charles] He'll be staying in Scotland, so there could be a change, but it would have to be Harry who would have to go see him and I think that's quite unlikely.”
