Prince Harry has been advised to work diligently to escape what some are calling a ‘flop era,’ as growing anger in America “speaks volumes” about “how badly his brand is faring in his new home.” These comments were highlighted by Arwa Mahdawi in her piece for The Guardian, where she referenced the criticism Harry faces for his military stint and connections to anti-royal propaganda.
Mahdawi detailed the extent of the brewing anti-Sussex sentiment, stating, “Harry has no end of haters in the UK; almost anything he does is bound to be criticized by sections of the British press.” She added, “But the fact his award nomination is getting so much backlash from Americans speaks volumes about how badly his brand is faring in his new home.”
She further elaborated, “The novelty of the newlyweds, it seems, has worn off; America is growing tired of the Sussexes.” Compounding the issue, sources close to The Telegraph have reported that the criticism relating to Prince Harry’s military past has been particularly difficult for him to handle. This backlash includes negative reactions to his nomination for the Pat Tillman Award for Service at the 2024 ESPYs, a decision that has sparked considerable controversy.
Mahdawi didn’t hold back in her critique, even making a sly reference to Meghan’s upcoming Rose wine and suggesting that Prince Harry might need it to “wash” down the criticism he’s facing. As Prince Harry navigates this challenging period, it’s clear that he will need to make significant efforts to rebuild his image both in the UK and the US.
The growing dissatisfaction among Americans, coupled with persistent criticism from the British press, underscores the complex and precarious nature of his public standing. How he addresses these issues in the coming months will be crucial for his and Meghan’s future endeavors and public perception.
