Prince Harry and Meghan Markle appearance slammed after Charles and Kate health scare
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle appeared at the premiere of Bob Marley: One Love on Tuesday, however, the outing hasn't gone down well with everyone.
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle have been branded "insensitive" over their first public appearance of the year.
The couple appeared at the premiere of Bob Marley: One Love film on Tuesday night, marking their first public appearance of 2024.
Some suspected the Duke and Duchess of Sussex's appearance at the premiere of the Paramount Pictures feature was a warning to Netflix that they were keeping their options open as their contract ran down.
But now one royal commentator has gone a step further, calling the pair out for their appearance at the event while King Charles, Kate Middleton and Sarah Ferguson battle health complications.
Mike Parry blasted the couple for not using the appearance to wish them well and urging them to "come here" to the UK.
Speaking on GB News he said: "They’re trying to fill up the time with something because they have nothing else to do.
“They are rubbing shoulders with Jamaican politicians who have pledged to break away from the UK and do not want the King as their head of state. It’s insensitive."
It came after the programme's presenter Bev Turner argued it "didn't matter" that they had not addressed the issues as "his Dad isn’t on his death bed, he’s having his prostate checked out".
Parry continued: "They seem very reluctant to leave their mansion at the moment, if they’re going to make a trip abroad, why not come here?

“They should have made some approaches to the Royal Family. This would have been a perfect opportunity to have some bridge building going on.”
Presenter Turner argued the couple were "building their brand" which she said they were "entitled to do".
It comes after Sophie, Duchess of Edinburgh, paid a subtle tribute to King Charles during a visit to Harris Girls' Academy in East Dulwich as part of her work as patron of the charity Wellbeing for Women.
