Prince Harry is being accused of leaning on Princess Diana's legacy to bolster his "public image." The claim comes after the Duke of Sussex's high-profile UK appearances and personal unveilings about life. More than two decades after her death, people still remember the late Princess of Wales as one of the most beloved royal figures, especially for the lasting influence she had on her children.
Critics have accused Prince Harry of exploiting his late mother, Princess Diana's memory, after he disclosed a private birthday tradition. According to sources, some branded the intimate disclosure as "sickeningly crass," per RadarOnline.
While speaking at Scotty's Summer Festival at Maxstoke Castle in Warwickshire during his recent trip to the UK, the Prince shared a family tradition. The 41-year-old told the crowd that the Sussexes honor the late Princess of Wales' July 1 birthday and the August 31 anniversary of her death with a lemon drizzle cake.
"There are people who feel Harry simply cannot stop returning to Diana whenever he appears in public. **** ody questions that he misses his mother, but some believe repeatedly sharing intimate details about how he marks her memory risks turning an intensely personal tragedy into part of his public image. Among his critics, there is a growing feeling that it comes across as cashing in on Diana's legacy, and some have described the latest comments as sickeningly crass," said a royal insider.
"Supporters will say he is touchingly honoring his mother, but others think every new revelation invites fresh headlines about Diana rather than allowing her memory to remain private. That's why his remarks have generated such a strong reaction," they added.
