Love them or hate them,Meghan Markle and Prince Harry’s relationshipis still going strong.
By contrast, Harry and Meghan generally appear to have a loving and supportive bond free from toxicity.
Unlike most couples, Harry and Meghan’s awkward interactions have been captured for the world to see.
Subsequently, James claimed that Meghan may have been annoyed at Harry for interrupting her conversation with Tindall.
Lip-reader Tina Lannin toldThe Sunthat Harry said, “No he hasn’t.
Social media users found the toe-curling clip exceedingly awkward.
Meanwhile, others felt sympathy for Meghan’s struggle to adhere to the strict etiquette of The Firm.
“Soooo glad they got out,” wrote a Meghan sympathizer.
“She rescued him.”
However, Harry appeared to ignore her, chatting away to another attendee.
A seemingly mortified Meghan then looked on into the distance.
Alas, Meghan was giving main character energy, but was relegated to background extra.
Royal commenter Kara Kennedy was inclined to agree.
“This had nothing to do with her,” Kennedy told Sky News Australia (viaSheFinds).
Leaving a bit of a mess on the prince, she proceeded to wipe smudged lipstick off his face.
The lipstick wipe appeared to be a somewhat maternal gesture, equal parts wholesome and cringe.
Unfortunately for Harry and Meghan, many eagle-eyed observers only saw the cringe side of the gesture.
On X, formerly Titter, users lamented that they were embarrassed on behalf of the prince.
“Why did M wipe Harry’s face when it’s prize giving time?
How embarrassing for him,” asked royal biographer Angela Levin (viaExpress).
But some argued that it was a wholly relatable moment, rather than an embarrassing one.
“After kissing him she then wipes the lipstick off his lips.
Every wife does that,” wrote one defender.
Like, was that okay?”
Eventually, the prince broke the painful silence by letting out an awkward laugh.
“She did not understand why she needed to curtsy to Harry’s grandmother …
But, as Harry learned the hard way, his affectionate gestures aren’t always reciprocated.
Attending an NBA game in 2023, Harry and Meghan were caught on the kiss-cam.
Accordingly, the prince leaned in for a kiss, which Meghan rebuffed.
Harry then let out a playful grimace in the face of rejection.
Similarly, PR expert Chad Teixeira told theMirrorthat Meghan may have been making a plea for privacy.
“She seems insecure regarding her husband.
“That lady was blocking Harry.
Why would Meghan move away from her own husband?”
Inevitably, royalists on X found the spectacle equal parts hilarious and painful.

Additionally, the couple was accused of being disrespectful hypocrites for standing in silence as the national anthem played.
“Why can’t they just be themselves?”
