Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s ongoing royal saga took another hit as the couple was noticeably absent from the highly celebrated Trooping the Colour event on June 14. This year's gathering, led by King Charles, included Queen Camilla, Prince William, Princess Kate, and other senior royals — yet the Sussexes were nowhere to be seen.
United Royal Front Leaves No Room for the Sussexes
As the monarchy stood strong and united during the King’s official birthday parade in London, the absence of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s presence sparked fresh waves of criticism. Many royal watchers couldn’t help but note how another golden opportunity had quietly slipped through the couple’s hands.
Sussexes Labeled “Complete Failures” by Royal Commentator
Television personality Lizzie Cundy didn’t hold back in a recent interview with GB News, where she openly labeled the Duke and Duchess as “complete failures.” According to her, this was yet another golden opportunity they could have seized to reconnect with the public and their royal roots — but instead, it slips away each time.
“They Blew It,” Says Cundy
“They whinge, they moan, they criticise, and they’re not very grateful,” Cundy remarked, highlighting how Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s royal privileges seemed to be squandered. “Watching Trooping the Colour today, I felt they really missed out — they really blew it.”
Criticism Over Choices and Lack of Duty
Cundy also pointed out that ever since the couple’s dramatic exit from royal duties in 2020, they’ve mainly been “good at spending money.” Meanwhile, King Charles continues to carry out his royal responsibilities, even while battling cancer — a move that Cundy described as nothing short of “incredible.”
Missed Opportunities Continue to Haunt the Sussexes
With every major royal event, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s continued absence highlights how a golden opportunity slips from their hands. Instead of repairing ties, they seem increasingly alienated, constantly labeled as outsiders and, more critically, as complete failures within the royal narrative.
Future Still Uncertain for the Duke and Duchess
As criticism mounts, one thing becomes clear — each golden opportunity they let pass by only adds to the public perception that the couple has made irreversible mistakes. If the pattern continues, more chances will inevitably slip away, further tightening the label of complete failures around Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s public image.
