Meghan Markle Fans Criticize Prince Harry for ‘Unprofessional’ Chair Incident

Meghan Markle’s followers have been buzzing on social media after noticing a moment where Prince Harry briefly placed his arm on the back of a translator’s chair beside him. The Sussexes were attending an event at the Zapata National Centre for the Arts in Bogota, enjoying a tribal dance performance.

During a conversation with an interpreter, Harry’s arm was seen resting on the back of her chair, sparking a flurry of online comments. On platform X, one user remarked: “Sitting very close to the translator and with his arm around her chair! Oh dear, Harry will be in for it when he gets home!” A fan of Meghan commented: “I’m sure Harry got the wrath of Meghan about this!” Another posted: “This is the strangest photo I have ever seen of these two.”

However, other users defended the interaction. One noted, “The translator is not doing anything wrong and appears to be acting with professionalism and decorum.” Another indicated, “Their interpreter’s demeanor seemed very professional and friendly.”

The visit to the Latin American nation aimed to shed light on the troublesome issues of bullying and misinformation online. During their stay, Harry expressed concerns in his speech: “What happens online within a matter of minutes transfers to the streets. People are acting on information that isn’t true.”

He added, “It comes down to all of us to be able to spot the true from the fake. In an ideal world, those with positions of influence would take more responsibility. We are no longer debating facts.”

Harry further emphasized, “For as long as people are allowed to spread lies, abuse, harass, then social cohesion as we know it has completely broken down.”

The visit of Harry and Meghan has stirred up controversy. Locals in Colombia have criticized the Sussexes’ tour, accusing them of aiding Bogota’s troubled government in diverting attention from ongoing corruption scandals and other problems.

A Colombian lawyer told the Mail on Sunday, “I’m sure Meghan and Harry mean well, but everyone here is talking about how obviously they are being manipulated.”

“Of course, their star power will be used to bring attention to poor people and certain areas of culture in Colombia… but the reality is the Colombian government has been drowning in scandal since it came in two years ago. They need something to appease people at home and make them look good abroad.”
