Taking to Instagram, the star of "Yellowstone" shared stunning photos of Meghan, Harry, and other attendees, noting that they had a fantastic weekend. He emphasized the importance of supporting critical First Responders in their area and acknowledged the invaluable role they've played during challenging times. Costner highlighted the significance of coming together as a community to celebrate their efforts.
Meghan Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, surprised everyone by joining their friends Ellen DeGeneres, Oprah Winfrey, and others at Kevin Costner's 100th to 805th live charity event for First Responders over the past weekend. However, Meghan found herself in an embarrassing moment during the event when she mistakenly took the microphone from the host, who was reluctant to let it go. The video of this awkward incident, which occurred on May 18th, quickly went viral.
Tom Bauer commented in an interview with GB News, describing the situation as intriguing. It seemed that Meghan believed her $12,000 ticket entitled her to speak and share her experiences, similar to her involvement with the Invictus Games in Germany. However, the event had different plans, and she was denied the opportunity after this uncomfortable episode.
Meghan presented Kevin Costner with an honorary award and introduced the other attendees. Some royal enthusiasts speculated that Costner might have been indirectly referencing Meghan and Harry when he spoke about rude friends asking about his net worth. Meghan's previous social media posts about Kevin's net worth had sparked speculation that she might have been invited to cover the event.
Video evidence seemed to support this theory, as Meghan repeatedly turned to the camera to showcase her celebrity status. However, the video also captured an awkward moment when Harry gestured for the MC to give Meghan the microphone, but the MC declined. Meghan appeared visibly shaken and almost dropped the award as she handed it to Harry to present to Kevin. This incident could suggest a strained relationship between Kevin Costner and Meghan.
In another video, Meghan was seen laughing and crouching down, apparently attempting to resolve the situation just before Kevin Costner hinted at their involvement in the background.
Ultimately, Meghan's attempt to shine at the event seemed to have backfired. In related news, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle faced criticism for their actions regarding schools for underprivileged children. The event required a release form that prohibited the distribution of these store images for profit. This release form, commonly known as a gag order, applied even to children as young as seven, according to Sky News Australia. The gag order was implemented to prevent negative stories from leaking to the public.
During a conversation with host Chris Kenney, O'Brien openly discussed the gag orders, revealing that the school and its students had initially agreed to them to secure the couple's visit. However, O'Brien criticized the Sussexes for this move, calling it an "absolutely appalling way of treating students and teachers.
