Prince Harry had acting lessons with his wife Meghan Markle.

The Duke of Sussex made an emotional statement at the WellChild Awards when he recalled the moment he knew that Markle was pregnant and they were both thinking about what it would be like to be parents one day. Prince Harry attended the event with his wife because he is the patron of the charity that helps seriously ill children.

The duke welled up as he delivered his speech at the ceremony. While others were touched by Prince Harry’s message, some criticized the duke and even accused him of acting because those were just “crocodile tears.”

“Harry has been well trained by Meghan Markle,” one netizen wrote on Twitter, referring to the duchess’ previous profession as an actress.

“I didn’t actually see a tear, so yup, she is giving him ‘acting’ lessons,” another user added.

Another online user ridiculed Prince Harry by saying that Markle ruined him or he was too far gone to begin with before adding that Prince Harry was “judge-y.” Another also laughed at the prince.

“Well someone did say she picks out his clothes writes his speeches and is teaching him acting it’s a paying off he looks so [explicit] stupid every time hes with her yout a joke Harry when your done with your shithow circus you’ll be the next PA garage,” a different netizen wrote.

The Duke and Duchess of Sussex were heavily criticized for taking four private flights in four days. Many also slammed the couple for their obsession for privacy.

Prince Harry and Markle were able to renew the public adoration during their tour to South Africa. Daniela Elser said that the royal tour was the couple’s chance to wipe the state clean and redeem their tarnished reputation following the persistent negativeheadlines.

The Sussexes successfully made it, but lost their glory in a matter of days when they announced that they had filed a lawsuit against Mail on Sunday. Days after that, Prince Harry also sued The Mirror and The Sun for an alleged phone hacking.

Many felt that the Duke and Duchess of Sussex were starting a war against the press. Following their move, the couple was criticized again. According to Richard Palmer, the couple no longer receives any support from the royal family.
