Critics Call Decision "Epitome of Elitism" Despite Couple's Advocacy for Equality
Prince Harry and Meghan Markle face backlash over their decision to potentially enroll their children, Archie and Lilibet, in an exclusive and expensive school. Despite their public stance on equality and social justice, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex are accused of hypocrisy for considering institutions where fees can reach tens of thousands annually.
Royal commentator Lee Cohen criticized the couple on GB News, denouncing their move as "utterly infuriating" and claiming it undermines their image as champions of equality. Cohen argued that their progressive activism appears hollow if they endorse such elitism.
In a separate commentary to The Mirror, royal author Tom Quinn highlighted potential drawbacks for Archie and Lilibet. While prestigious schools offer networking advantages, Quinn warned that they might foster unrealistic expectations and pressures, especially given their royal lineage.
The couple's supporters argue that every parent seeks the best education for their children, but critics maintain that Harry and Meghan's choices contradict their stated values of equality and social justice.
