Fox News ^ | September 06 2020 | Nick Givas

Prince Harry and wife Meghan Markel faced criticism for canceling a scheduled fundraising event for injured veterans last week, shortly after signing a multiyear media production deal with Netflix just days before, worth over nine figures.

The fundraising event was reportedly going to raise at least £1 million for the Invictus Games Foundation. The Invictus Games, created by Harry, is an international multi-sport event, focusing on wounded, injured or sickly armed service members, who participate in nine sports including wheelchair basketball, sitting volleyball, and indoor rowing.

A story in the Sunday Times said the event was set to be aired on Amazon, which is considered a direct competitor to Netflix, causing a financial conflict.

I see it’s the ‘woke’ crowd that dis veterans, and not President Trump.

Not a fan of these two... But, the article goes on to say:

An Invictus spokesperson claimed the event was canceled due to the coronavirus and claimed it had nothing to do with the couple's streaming deal.

“I love the Royals except for these two. I liked harry before she came along so now I am done with them both.”

The Prince (former Prince?) will bounce back after she’s tired of him, but he’s in for a LONG ride before then. And her “tell-all” book... She’s probably working on it right now. I’m betting the divorce makes her the most reviled woman in the English-speaking world lol.

And I imagine him going back to his family will be like the biblical “prodigal son.” It’ll play great on the news lol.

I wouldn’t watch anything these two bores produce or star in!

He’s an uneducated hypocrite that espouses climate change bull while riding around in gas-guzzling SUV’s when he leaves his $14 million mansion with 16 bathrooms.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle pull the plug on glittering Invictus Games fundraiser for wounded soldiers due to be shown on Amazon after signing £112million deal with rivals Netflix

Up to over 10,000 comments now. And the vast majority are not what I'd call supportive.

Mostly she’s black and thinks she is a Coming to America princess. Being attitudinally black is her problem

She should focus on doing yoga poses for the rest of us.

Kinda like the NFL should focus on throwing the ball.
