The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were accompanied by a group of Archewell employees and close friends, and photos of the two enjoying the game in a luxury box were widely shared online.
In an article for News AU, Daniela Elser criticized the couple for their "attention-seeking" behavior and compared them to the stars of the reality show "Vanderpump Rules".
Elser also questioned what had happened to Prince Harry and why his life now seemed more like that of a reality star than that of a member of the royal family who once promised to uphold the values of the late Queen.
Elser went on to contrast images of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle at the Lakers game with images of Prince William and Kate Middleton engaged in more serious royal duties. She even compared the couple to the Kardashians, who were also present at the game.
