Buckingham Palace’s delay in addressing Prince Harry and Meghan’s status criticised by royal expert

Angela Levin, a royal expert, has criticized Buckingham Palace for its delay in updating the status of Prince Harry and Meghan Markle on the royal family’s website. Following the couple’s decision to step back as senior royals in 2020, their section on the website was eventually demoted to the bottom, an action Levin believes was long overdue. This criticism coincides with Prince Harry and Meghan’s launch of a new site, Sussex.com, and Meghan’s introduction of her lifestyle brand, American Riviera Orchard, and a Netflix cooking show, fueling debates about their use of royal titles and new commercial pursuits.

In a related news development, former U.S. President Donald Trump has reassured the public and clarified his stance on the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) during an interview with Nigel Farage on GB News. Despite prior controversial remarks suggesting a conditional defense of NATO members based on their financial contributions, Trump has stated that the U.S. will support NATO allies who fulfill their financial obligations. He highlighted his negotiation tactics as instrumental in increasing defense spending among member countries and reiterated his criticism of those not meeting the two percent GDP spending target on defense, a goal set by NATO.

Trump’s remarks have sparked discussions on his foreign policy approach, especially towards NATO and Russia. Amid continuing debates around NATO members’ financial commitments and collective defense principles, Trump’s position underscores ongoing challenges within the alliance and the significance of burden-sharing among its members.
