Harry-Meghan latest update: The former royal couple spoke to Jessica Chapnik Khan, who survived the attack while shielding her five-year-old daughter after attending a Hanukkah party.<\/p>\n
And once again, the Duchess of Sussex has made headlines for the wrong reasons. We are talking about Meghan Markle, and the backlash that came her way after she paid a visit to the survivors of the Bondi beach terror attack with her husband and Duke of Sussex Prince Harry. Recently, the former royal couple began their time in Sydney at Bondi, where 15 people were killed in the 14 December terror attack.<\/p>\n

Markle\u2019s outfit that she wore during the visit to the survivors had been featured on the site OneOff, but the AI-fashion platform has removed the outfit following severe backlash. Netizens accused Markle of trying to cannibalize the sensitivity of that moment to meet her own ends. The ensemble included a $420 blue and white striped Matteau shirt, $159 white \u2018sailor jeans\u2019 by Rollas, and an $895 navy cashmere sweater from P Johnson Femme.<\/p>\n

What \u201cAfter my mum died just before my 13th birthday, I was like: \u2018I don\u2019t want this job. I don\u2019t want this role \u2013 wherever this is headed, I don\u2019t like it,\u201d said Prince Harry. He added, \u201cThere have been many times when I\u2019ve felt overwhelmed.\u201d<\/p>\n When At the time, Harry and Meghan released a lengthy online statement announcing their decision to step back from royal duties, one that, critics now argue, contained barbed language aimed at the institution itself. The most contentious passage asserted that the late Queen held \u201cno jurisdiction overseas over the word \u2018Royal,\u2019\u201d implying that the couple could use it freely despite official objections.<\/p>\n Observers say the tone of the statement, which emphasized Harry\u2019s birthright as an HRH and sixth in line to the throne, was unusually combative. \u201cIt read less like a farewell and more like a challenge to royal authority,\u201d one palace source said, describing it as \u201cunnecessary and deeply personal.\u201d<\/p>\n First Published: Home<\/a>Entertainment<\/a>Harry-Meghan latest update: Markle\u2019s outfit during visit to Bondi beach terror attack survivors removed from AI fashion platform after backlashEnd of Article<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Harry-Meghan latest update: The former royal couple spoke to Jessica Chapnik Khan, who survived the attack while shielding…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":392183,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[32],"tags":[202729,430,156,202734,75321,202727,202728,202732,111,139,69,202731,202730,202733],"class_list":["post-392182","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-celebrities","tag-bondi-beach-terror-attack","tag-celebrities","tag-entertainment","tag-harry-and-meghan-royal-duties","tag-harry-meghan-latest-update","tag-meghan-markle-bondi-backlash","tag-meghan-markle-controversy","tag-meghan-markle-outfit-criticism","tag-new-zealand","tag-newzealand","tag-nz","tag-oneoff-ai-fashion-platform","tag-prince-harry-sydney-visit","tag-royal-couple-australia-visit"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392182","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=392182"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/392182\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/392183"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=392182"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=392182"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/nz\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=392182"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
