Royal fans criticize Harry and Meghan’s TV appearances

The Duke and Duchess face criticism for frequent media appearances as they prepare for a CBS interview.

Royal fans have expressed frustration over Prince Harry and Meghan Markle's frequent television appearances, as backlash mounts online following a preview of their upcoming interview with CBS. 

The interview, set to air this Sunday, features the couple discussing cyber abuse three years after their explosive interview with Oprah Winfrey.

In the clip, Harry, 39, and Meghan, 42, sit down with CBS Sunday Morning host Jane Pauley to discuss the importance of protecting children from online harm. Harry emphasised the role of parents as "first responders" in identifying the "telltale signs of possible suicide," which he finds "terrifying" due to many parents' lack of awareness. The couple also reflected on their experiences raising their two young children, Prince Archie, five, and Princess Lilibet, three.

Critics on social media have questioned their intentions, with one user on X writing, “It’s ironic how they prioritise privacy while seeking publicity.” Another exclaimed, "Stay off the #WeWantOurPrivacy worldwide press tours!"

This preview follows the announcement of Harry and Meghan's upcoming tour of Colombia, where they will engage with leaders, youth, and women later this year.
