New York Post columnist Miranda Devine has accused them of selecting an inappropriate location for their actions.
Devine's remarks echo those made earlier by Piers Morgan, who also criticized the couple. Morgan had previously accused Harry and Meghan of essentially creating the very spectacle they claim to be opposed to.
Devine shares this sentiment and further asserts that they made an ill-advised decision in choosing to execute their "stunt" in New York.
This sentiment is amplified due to the abundance of cameras and the presence of numerous more influential celebrities in the city.
It seems apparent that their motives were driven by the desire to generate attention and drama.
They reportedly spent an hour and a half driving around Manhattan, presumably capturing footage on Harry's phone for a future installment on Netflix.
