Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have issued a blunt response to their critics, declaring that they “will not be broken.”
This bold statement comes in the wake of intense media scrutiny surrounding their recent Canada trip, personal attacks fueled by a ‘make or break’ narrative, and the new Sussex website.
The Duke and Duchess of Sussex showed up on Wednesday having a great time at the 2025 Invictus Games training camp in British Columbia.
“We’ve heard time and time again that certain opportunities are make or break for the couple,” a rep for the Duke and Duchess of Sussex spoke to Mirror on Thursday. “They’re still here.” It added.
In the midst of King Charles’ cancer diagnosis, public attention turned to Harry and Meghan as they were seen in Canada, sparking controversy over their activities, including launching a new website and changing their children’s surname.
The statement further read, “They’re still working and pursuing what they believe in, despite constantly being challenged and criticized. This couple will not be broken.”
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle’s recent defense comes amid a storm of criticism, sparked by a Telegraph report suggesting that the couple, aged 42 and 39, “have three days to prove they can behave” during their Vancouver visit for the Invictus Games if “they want to salvage a relationship with the Royal family.” Criticism arose from their continued use of the “Duke and Duchess of Sussex” titles despite stepping down from senior royal roles in 2020.
