Royal Fans and Commentators React to Missing Personal Touch in Social Media Post
Prince William and Catherine's recent birthday tribute to Prince Harry has sparked fresh debate among royal fans and commentators. The message, shared on the official social media account of the Prince and Princess of Wales, wished Harry a "Happy 40th Birthday," but a key detail left many puzzled.
The absence of the typical "W & C" sign-off, which William and Catherine usually include in their personal posts, suggested that the message was not directly from the couple. Instead, it appears their team may have posted it, leading to speculation that the couple and Harry remain distant.
Royal commentator Svar Nanan-Sen pointed out that the Prince and Princess of Wales are reportedly not on speaking terms with Harry, and their team may have followed the Royal Family’s example to avoid the appearance of a snub on Harry’s milestone birthday.
Adding to the controversy, the image accompanying the post appeared to have cropped Meghan Markle out of the original 2018 photo, further fueling discussion. Some viewed this as a deliberate exclusion, while others, like commentator Ben Leo, argued that the post was rightly focused on Harry.
Despite the divided opinions, some, like Kriss Akabusi, took a more optimistic stance, suggesting that William’s gesture still showed that he was thinking of his brother on this important day.
