UK TREND : Harry or Andrew deserves to lose the royal title first?

13 December 2022

Social media platforms have been trending with more than 70 thousand tweets with the hashtag Prince Andrew. This occurred after Harry and Meghan’s new Netflix show was released, which was heavily criticized by British tabloids and members of the British public.

However, supporters of Harry and Meghan have defended them and noted the clear racism in this situation. In fact, Prince Andrew committed far more outrageous acts than what British tabloids are claiming Harry and Meghan have committed, with a series that explores their relationship and sheds light on the decisions they have taken. However, no one has called for his title to be removed or faced such hatred.

Prince Andrew stayed with a convicted paedophile & settled a case to prevent him from answering allegations he raped a 17-year-old.

Prince Harry stopped taking public money, repaid Frogmore Cottage & moved to protect his family.

Yet Harry is the bad one to Royal Correspondents. pic.twitter.com/3UuF6dCRzH

UK TREND : Prince Andrew committed more outrageous acts than Harry and Meghan !

Prince Harry — *Netflix releases the second trailer of “Harry and Meghan”*

Twitter users criticized British tabloids such as The Daily Mail for posting ’19 pages of rage dedicated to Harry and Meghan’s documentary. In fact, it’s ‘17 more pages than they devoted to Prince Andrew being outed for having sex with children’ .

The Daily Mail today has 19 pages of rage dedicated to Harry & Megan’s documentary. Which, incidentally is 17 more pages than they dedicated to Prince Andrew being outed for having sex with children.

Twitter users pointed out that British tabloids also appear to have high levels of racism in their criticism of Harry’s actions for marrying a woman of colour and stepping down from royal duties for her. Despite that, they seemed unconcerned about Prince Andrew’s sexual assault claim.

Amazing how many British tabloids are more upset at Prince Harry for marrying a strong woman of colour than at Prince Andrew for being a paedophile. #HarryandMeghanNetflix

Furthermore, the Royal Family paid £12 million in taxpayer money to the individual who accused Prince Andrew of rape. This is in order to avoid any negative press coverage regarding Prince Andrew and the royal family.

What I’ve learned about right wingers in the past few days is that a black woman laughing at herself is terrible but the Queen paying £12 million to Prince Andrew’s rape accuser is fine.

Lunatics.

Stripping Harry and Meghan from their titles

Harry & Meghan — *Duke and Duchess of Sussex*

People were criticizing member of parliament Bob Seely for proposing legislation to strip Harry and Meghan of their titles. This is because they are ” apparently trashing the family”. However, no member of parliament proposed stripping Prince Andrew of his title when he was accused of participating in sexual activities with a minor.

Dear Tory MP @IoWBobSeely,

I see you’re proposing legislation to strip Harry and Meaghan of their titles

Because apparently they are “trashing his family”

May I introduce you to Prince Andrew?

Piers Morgan was also one of those individuals who were critical of Harry and Meghan’s new Netflix series, claiming that the couple is “publicly trashing” the Royal Family.

Imagine being the Royal Family still grieving the loss of your great Matriarch just a few weeks ago, and now having to endure two relatives who deserted royal duty & Britain for riches in America, publicly trashing you as racists & liars week after week? It’s so disgusting.

— Piers Morgan (@piersmorgan) December 12, 2022

The Twitter community criticized Piers Morgan for his hypocrisy for not addressing Prince Andrew’s accusations, as pictures showed Piers Morgan with Prince Andrew.

What about Prince Andrew. Why are you quiet on this. Maybe pic.twitter.com/gyAGRNK4bF

Many members of the public, who are not royal fans or aren’t too interested in these issues, have pointed out the unjustified differences in treatment between Meghan Markle and Prince Andrew. As “Meghan Markle seems to be getting more abuse from the press and the public than Prince Andrew”.

I personally don't give a damn about any of them, but I can't help noticing that Megan Markle seems to be getting more abuse from the press and public than Prince Andrew. Surely, something is wrong here
