Recent criticism of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry is just straight-up bullying caused by a racial double standard
Meghan Markle and her husband, Prince Harry, are in the news yet again. This time the royal pair is being criticized for taking two mini vacations, flying to Ibiza, Spain, and then to Nice, France, on private jets. According to British press environmental activists are calling the royal duo hypocrites for championing climate change issues while deciding to fly private.
In defence of the new parents, fans and royal followers are rightly peeved, and celebrities such as Jameela Jamil, Ellen DeGeneres, Pink and Elton John have backed the pair over this latest criticism, pointing out that the double-standard being lobbed at them is racially motivated. And while flying private is defintiely terrible when it comes to its environmental impact—it is estimated that private jets cause 10 times the amount of carbon pollution than flying commercial—how often are white celebrities held to the same standard that Sussexes currently are? Leonardo DiCaprio, for example, is often seen flying private, while also donating much of his time and money to raising awareness around environmental issues.
It’s been frustrating and disheartening to see the way the British press have been treating Markle, who made Canada her home for years while she was filming the television show Suits.
