Renowned comedian Andrew Schultz, celebrated for his sharp wit, didn't shy away from poking fun at Prince Harry and Megan Markle during his wedding festivities in Montecito, California.
Playfully asserting that Montecito isn't spacious enough for two power couples thriving on the generosity of their in-laws, Schultz humorously declared that Harry and Megan's time in the spotlight is over. In a light-hearted Instagram post, Schultz playfully suggested that he and his wife, food blogger Emma Turner, aspire to become the new royalty in Montecito.
In a wedding photo featuring Emma Turner, Schultz managed to outshine Harry and Megan, emerging as the most tagged individual in Montecito photos—an amusing triumph for Schultz.
This isn't the first time Schultz has taken a playful jab at the British royal family. Back in January 2023, he boldly asserted that nobody in America cares about Prince Harry and Megan, particularly in the context of Harry's controversial tell-all book. Schultz's candid remarks align with a broader trend of public figures expressing indifference or criticism toward the couple.
As 2024 unfolds, Harry and Megan face various setbacks and public criticisms. They were not invited to the Duke of Westminster's wedding, and Megan was notably absent from the "Suits" reunion at the Golden Globe Awards. Comedian Joe Koy, the event's host, openly called them out, describing them as grifters who earn millions for doing nothing.
Additionally, Harry's exclusion from an official book celebrating notable graduates from the Sandhurst Military Academy added to their challenges. Megan faces a defamation lawsuit from her half-sister Samantha, with a tentative trial date set for November 2024. The lawsuit seeks $75,000 in damages, alleging that Megan defamed Samantha during her 2021 interview with Oprah Winfrey.
The ongoing challenges, coupled with a potential end to a super-injunction in May, present a challenging outlook for Harry and Megan, leaving them on a perceived downward spiral with diminishing support in various spheres. Prince Harry and Megan Markle were recently criticized for choosing to live like royalty despite financial constraints by famous royal expert Tom Bower, reacting to Joe Koy's Golden Globe Awards remarks.
Bower emphasized how they face ridicule in Hollywood, are ignored in New York, and may be heading toward a financial crisis due to their chosen high lifestyle without a corresponding income. The situation, Bower contends, was predictable, and the couple may need to downsize and rethink their financial strategy.
